NBA Live 2004 is on the list of Electronic Arts

We'll see...

I could be wrong, but I don't think the PC version has ever been on display at E3, so any reports/previews from E3 will likely be based on one of the console versions, so the E3 previews might not be an accurate preview of the PC version.

Unfortunately if Nba live 2003 is any example, well the game will be exactly the same as on the consoles. I'm hoping that this is not the case, but still kind of afraid it will be.

I am waiting for any news on Live 2004 to find out what they have listed as the new and fancy improvements for the game. I hope that there aren't that many so that they have had time to fix the problems from last year.

Personally, EA can work on all the eye candy they want as long as they add sliders for gameplay--I'll be a happy pappy.

[Andrew]

But what if the gameplay is perfect without sliders?

[JasonLin]

That would be coooooooool..... I hope so... Perfect gameplay..


I don't think we'll see PC version on E3, but it's just the same as console version, so i am expecting to see if the console version has improved.

Sliders would still be good so I could sometimes play like live 2003 with friends. The only way live 2003 is awesome is playing against friends when you're not serious.

True, it's more or less the same. However, the PC does allow greater controller customisation, an additional 15 years in Franchise and custom art, so we have some advantages that may not be apparent in the console previews.

[Icebane]

25 years isn't it?

[Tuomas]

EA should put more effort into the PC version, like modifying Freestyle Control (R) to work completely with keyboard, and some advantage, like editors (dittie and jersey importers), custom teams and bigger graphic textures

[Icebane]

Just finsihed saying that in my last post:D

[Andrew]

25 years isn't it?

Yes, while the console has a 10 year Franchise. Therefore, the PC version has an additional 15 years over the console version.

Didn't see the key word... "Additional":p

[Andrew]

It's cool. Had to double-check to make sure I said additional the first time. I have a habit of leaving words out sometimes (typing faster than I think ).

NONONO! That would put us programmers out of a job!!!
