IGN run a poll asking who makes the best sports games. I found this at the other games forum.

2k got 63% of the vote
EA got 37% of the vote

We already last the NFL, I just hope EA will allow competetion to continue in the future for the NBA games, if not, the law need to stop this monopoly.

i got the point you like 2k better, i dont have a problem with that, but why do you still make the same damn post? stop trying to shove it down other's throats that 2k is better. i already got the fucking point already.

[Jing]

2k6 is better in every department but gameplay casue isomotion sucks i have it and love all but teh gameplay. ok? cool? its better? fine. be that way
bye bye and go play your 2k6 now

[flipz]

ya and im sure every live fan out there voted , who cares bout polls?....so long as EA still provides the best gameplay i could care less if im the only one buying the live series

[Jugs]

so long as EA still provides the best gameplay

When is that going to happen?

[Patr1ck]

We already last the NFL

We lost Major League Baseball, too.

Football and baseball are two of the richest sports out there, why did they only license rights to one company? The NBA licensed both 2k and EA.
WTF?!?!

[flipz]

so long as EA still provides the best gameplay

When is that going to happen?

they sure have since live 2005

Have you even played 2K6?!?!

[flipz]

lol: Have you even played 2K6?!?!

i havent really....to make a fair judgement would be to play both games almost every day which i dont got time to do...2k went downhill since 2k3( i loved dat game)

[Emiliano]

Trust me...you should definately play 2k6. Try it out and see for yourself.

I think the Gameplay in Live the last two years has been better than 2K's. I love B-Ball games and believe me I don't care who makes the games. I'm going to play which ever game is the best on court and the last two years Live has been better IMO.

2K's games have been solid right out the box and feel more SIM but after tweaking Live the last two years Ican say the gameplay has been better. I purchased both games last year and this year I only rented 2K's games. But for the week I spent with it I lost more and more interest after seeing things I didn't care for overall.

Both games have their flaws but Live was just more addictive the more I played.

WTF?!?!

i know we lost mlb.. and thats why they are coming out with the college game, but when did we lose nfl? wtf?

[Patr1ck]

but when did we lose nfl?

johnnyboy must have been speaking from the 2k perspective, but I like to have a choice of which game to play. I meant why did baseball and football only grant a license to one company each.

2k went downhill since 2k3( i loved dat game)

I agree, I went over my friends house all the time, just to play 2k3, and I had Live 2003.

[The_Flying_Tomato]

well I hate that stupid crap were you run in for a dunk and somehow they throw it off the back of the backboard

[OldFoolStyle]

How does 2k getting more votes = a monopoly.
a monopoly would be Madden where there is no compatition. The NBA has already stated they are not going that rout, so don't worry about it.

I'll care about 2k when they start porting to PC, and that ain't gonna happen.

[joejam999]

They would sell so much more games if they went to PC. Because on PC you can edit things. Like um maybe roster lol how could you stand to play it on a console. IMO

[hipn]

Im not a fanboy because I own some 2K games an some EA games and I must say EA makes more fun games and more games, like NBA Street series, SSX and a lot of other sports while 2K Sports only concentrates on MLB, NBA, NHL, and NFL.

I own both NBA Live 06 and NBA 2K6 and I must say Live is MUCH mroe enjoyable, I mean the shot stick in 2K6 is just horrible, and it makes the game kinda bad, I mean instead of a shot stick, it should be crosses, that would be a lot better. In terms of overall graphics, I msut say NBA Live has better graphics, maybe not the players, but everything else, from stadiums to courts, from jerseys to shoes. The courts in Live 06 actually look like hte courts in real life, with all the logos and everything, while (it seems like) 2K6 uses the same model/template and just changes the colour of the courts and different logos (and they are missing a lot of logos).

[Matthew]

Hipn I hate your sig but I agree with you. ESPN games feel very rigid at times. Give me madden over the old nfl series anyday.

A lil off topic, but how much did EA pay for the rights to the nfl license? 500 million? Thats not far off what some Tv companies for the right to broadcast games. Video games has come so far...

[CBno4]

I've played both 06 and 2k6, but I liked 2k6 better, I just didn't like 2k6's dunks imposible allyops

[point-guard]

lol...i love live06 so much more than 2k6..i think its realistic..but when i compare it to games like winning eleven that those japanese made...sigh..

[Lurtz]

Maybe 2k is better, but what if I've only got a PC?
