 Not as good as the old versions January 9, 2008

I haven't played the NBA Live series for a few years but this one turns out to be a disappointment. What I'm saying is, it is not as realistic as before .
In the game, the opposition's offense concentrates almost on only one, or maybe two players. For instance, when I play against the Raptors, Chris Bosh would attempt like half of the team's field goals. Other similar examples are Antawn Jamison and Gilbert Arenas in the Wizards, and Kobe Bryant in the Lakers. Often times half of the points scored by the opposing team are from only one player. I remember, in the previous versions, say 2003 or 2004, the attack was more balanced.
The opposing team also tends to make some very unbelievable shots, like off-balance/fade away from beyond the arc while I could miss layups. And players like Kobe, Lebron would just dunk, dunk and dunk and you couldn't stop them no matter who you have in the paint. Maybe it's me, but I've been playing the game since 1998 with Tim Hardaway on the cover. I can say I'm a pretty experienced player on this and these didn't happen.
The biggest joke of the game is its simulation which is completely unrealistic. I opened a season mode and I checked the boxscores of the CPU-against-CPU matches. I was amazed how could the likes of Tim Duncan, Yao Ming, Pau Gasol and Shaq attempt like 5 to 10 3-pointers in a game and they actually made them as if they were Jason Kapono.
I was completely turned off by the lack of realism in the game and I decided to only play a single match once in a while.
Since I haven't been playing the game for 3 years, what I said above might not be new. But it certainly didn't happen 4 years ago.
 good game November 16, 2007

Works great if you have an advanced graphic cards. But very similiar to last years, except for a couple of added features (You can play a world tournment and can do more spin moves).This game is very easy to master, and tends to be repeative. Must have the right specifications, which are only featured on the boxs. I wish EA sports mentioned the specifications on the website, so you can know them before you buy the product.
