It's hard to judge it when those people who were playing were just terrible. The dribbling animation still looks funky. The other animations (shooting, passing, lay-ups) were varied but extremely choppy. I hope the poor lob passes in the video are just a result of the two players.

nice scoreboard

by **HtownBallaADL** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 3:06 am

who did they let play the game????? some 10 year old kids...because they was playin horrible takin shots from half court and like 5 feet behind the three point line.....i kinda like the way that they intercept the ball and the ticker at the bottom...were they playin online?? because dats all current news on the ticker..........and i heard new commentary, but still some mistakes.....because when they start talkin about the charge and whether it was a good call or not......he said "we have been havin this problem all game" and it was only the 2nd quarter.........i guess it looks pretty good, for early development and for current gen......

Damn they still have that damn NBA LIVE 07 cutscene between plays, like when the ball goes out of bounds. The sound of the crowd and stadium sounds really good, and I like the commentary, EA always has better commentary than 2k. Yea the ticker's pretty cool, I hope you can get up to date news like that without being online on the PS2. In all I think it looks alright and I'm still looking forward to it.

Some thing else I noticed..
From EAsports.com
"Voices of the NBA: Former Chicago Bulls star Steve Kerr joins the legendary Marv Albert courtside. Together they call all the action from the best seats in the house, giving you expert insight on all the superstars. "
From this IGN article
"Instead of Kenny Smith, Greg Anthony from ESPN will step in for commentary during games."
So who's going to be commentating during the games?

by **Jing** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 4:15 am

either steve anthony or greg kerr.

by **dada** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 4:22 am

The best thing is the crowd and news ticker. Nothing else seems much different.

greg anthony is going to replace kenny smith in the slam dunk / 3-point shootout competition.

I don't get one thing: why can't they add a "superstar slider" for every category out there. That would solve the problems.

Damn... that video just shut out all the hopes I had for Live 07. Not only does the screenshots looked rehashed, the gameplay as well. Momentum meter? I couldn't even see it in the videos, nor could I tell how it affected the teams. The players still play as if they were on skates, and the only thing remotely different about Live 07 from Live 06 from that video was the ESPN presentation. Go EA Sports (N)

Wheres the damn BENCH PLAYERS ANIMATIONS!!!???

They talked about on IGN that there will be bench reactions...Damn! I hate liars! :evil:

by **Voxel** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 5:17 am

hey you sure it's nba live 07 videos? it looks like 06 with the only addition of different passing animations...

by **RSox** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 5:59 am

I remember NBA Live 2003 had bench animations. Sometimes the players would get up and start cheering.

by **Ghost Recon** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:04 am

Yes those animations were great in LIVE03... In IGN.COM's NBALIVE06 FIRST LOOK they said that there will be bench reactions :cry:

.And I don't saw it on the VIDEOS...They bench players sitted like toys!

by **BIG GREEN** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:23 am

wow..the game looks exactly like live 2006. I'm impressed.

Seriously though, seems i'm gonna have to get me a xbox360 if i hope to enjoy some proper basketball video gaming. Cause at this point...every iteration of the series looks the same on current gen.

by **Jing** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:24 am

hm.. i dunno what to thin.. they still got that weird cutscene after the ball goes out of bounds.. the players still slide a bit. one on occasional i noticed the ball suddenly changed direction in mid air...

by **BIG GREEN** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:31 am

I think EA has reached their limit as to what they can do with live on current-gen..that's the problem.

by **ethanlee29** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:45 am

wow i saw very recent news on that espn ticker.(raptors sign anthony parker) i'm lovin the new scoreboard

by **Ghost Recon** on Sat Jul 15, 2006 6:54 am

MAYBE THEY REACHED THE LIMIT BUT WHY THEY TELL FAKE EXCITING NEWS (BENCH PLAYERS REACTIONS)

I DONT SEE THOSE FEATURES IN THE VIDEOS
