Nba live 06 is the highest rated

[k083]

IMO Live does NOT have the best graphics of the bunch... The final version was dumbed down, such as the jersey. If you play in press box cam, you can see how improportional the courts are to the rim and players. NBA 06 has decent graphics too, dunno about the gameplay.

THE GRADE: EA still has it in it's head that gamers want to run set offenses, so there's an element of playcalling that, though easily ignored, seems a little much. A-

We do wanna run offenses.

The reviews were bad.....

Worst review ever.

Live at a Madden's status??? Please....two different planets.

Live having better graphic than 2K??? Please.....did they even try the games?

They could have based their judjements on other stuff such as gameplay and dynasty mode, if they really wanted to promote Live over 2k...but graphic? This alone tells me they don't know what they are talking about.

Just skip it...it doesn't really worth a read.

I spose they were too busy reading the S.I 2006 Swimsuit Magazine.

CWebb looks like he's doing Michael Jackson's Thriller.

Actually...I read the that it was hmm...either Shawn Marion or Amare Stoudemire...don't remember. But it actually might have been in this article.

Wow. That review really makes SI look bad.

I can understand the guy being a casual gamer and all, but to have a beef that Live runs and gives you the option to call plays? And instead he's infatuated with looking at the tattoos of players and such?

Sounds like a magazine you'd want to buy for in-depth analysis.
