The only thing I couldn't get past was the scoreboard placement. I kept changing the camera settings in vain since the scoreboard was always in front of everything, hindering the experience. Please fix it man, such a small thing keeping our beloved game from being better than it could.

the score ticker won't be a problem this year

Not having played NBA Live 2008, or NBA 2009 the last NBA Live game i played i believe was back in NBA Live 2005 with Carmelo Anthony on the front cover for the Playstation 2. So i have alot of catching up too do on the Live series once i Buy either a Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. But having looked at the screenshot comparison's from NBA Live 09 and NBA Live 10 the lighting and player model animation of Lebron James is greater (Not that the player model animation of Lebron James in NBA Live 09 isn't great though because both comparisons are really top notch amazing looking). But what def stood out to me was the lighting effects and the crowd models in the background in the arena for this year for the screenshot of NBA Live 10.

All the little extra's in any basketball game, sure are nice and dandy. But without getting the basketball game right down to the heart of the matter and that's the game of basketball and getting the game to be as smooth and as realisitic and as real life as the game can be for every die hard NBA/NCAA/High School etc basketball junkie then all of the little extra's added as features to the game are use less if the true basketball game it's self isn't as great as it can be.

But given Live's track record in the series for so long. I'm sure NBA Live 10 will be right on point again with another great game for this year.

I can't wait to play the game and see the next gen beauty and play amongt other die hard basketball fans. But i hope to get around to playing NBA Live 09 first before NBA Live 10 is released so i can sharpen up.

Steph I hope you guys do it big(coming from a 2k guy). They totally pissed me off with 2k9, so much that I play Live's 09 demo more then I play 2k9.

I'm looking forward to following these blogs by you Live devs, and hopefully you blow 2k out of the water this year. They are down & lazy time to kick them while there down there.

I know you guys know what needs to be done and I look forward to being able to come back to being a Live gamer very soon.

BTW Screenshot looks nice, excellent ritual.

nice..it was sometimes difficult to shoot 3 from the top corner (press box)

Not only do both shots look similar with very few differences. These cutscenes don't mean anything about how the game will actually look. Hopefully they will improve those stick men bodies and ridiculous faces. The face on Darko Milicic is a horrible representation.

p.s. Yes I know Darko sucks, but I play with the Grizzlies and that face irked me every time.

Are you joking me. Ridiculous faces. Have you seen 2k's faces. Especially Andrew Bynum. Look at this comparison of allen iverson in nba live 09 and nba 2k9. Live's looks way more realistic than 2k's.

Face comparisons have been covered many times by many sites/people. Also stop the EA vs 2K crap.
