Playa Haterz on NBA Games - 08-27-2005, 04:23 PM

Its pretty obvious that this rivalry will never be settled untill one of the sides have a huge advantage in sales and profit that the other will be forced to stop making the game or if NBA ever signs exclusively for one company which could be never. So I respect all Sega Gamers and I love arguing but check this article out if you have the time. It explains that the ARCADE nba jam style of Live is gone but for some reason you choose not to realize the beauty of this game probably cuz your more into graphics than the flow of the game. but live 06 should have improved graphics to let you see the light.
Anywas this guy was once one of you ESPN fans.

you guys act like ign is the god of gaming review or something. they all got their own opinions like everybody else so nothing is going to matter till you play the game yourself and make your own opinion. this year, i hope to get all 3 of the NBA games that come out to see what they all have to offer. i got both games last and thought NBA 2K5 was the better game overall.

Oh yeah and I would agree with IGN not being a gaming god type of thing but just look at all the major ones and Im willing to bet they all rate Live Higher. Find me one that doesnt then you got some support from the people getting paid to rate games

i don't see much sense in making a rivalry out of the competition of these 2 games. i mean, both have advantages and disadv. but i don't think you will ever be able to say: "this one's greater". anyway, there are finally two great basketball games, which i'm very pleased of...

Actually in all honesty, I can say both these games suck ass. They all have major flaws that are being addressed everyyear. Only reason I became a Live fan was becuz I didnt see ESPN getting any better just cheaper in price, while Live was making big steps forward. I hate the graphics but the motions are beautifull just look at them take jumpers its a thing of beauty that was too mechanical in 2k5
