Play Live 2003 or NCAA 2003 and notice how the player faces move. Mouths move, eyes blink, everything that we are wanting from the next gen when we had it in the current gen.
Also Net animations in 2003 i found were almost perfect....
I found a preview video of nba live 2005 made me go

so what happened? does anyone know why the net animations were shanked. why we no longer get facial animations?? And also why we cant get a rim animation when it bends down on a dunk?
