I'm really not impressed with what i see so far for live 07(current gen). Though this is not xbox 360 as stated above.

Is there a reason that you couldn't type the word "that's"? Why the D?

And, not to argue, necessarily, but how do you folks know that this isn't from Xbox 360?

[Goldenstatewarrior]

Great find! The game is coming along slowly.

idk what i couldnt type "thats", its just the way i type
and you can look at the graphics, to tell thats its not 360....and them videos are the same ones dat was posted for current gen

[gut]

thanks for the finding.

I really don't like the fact that none of the reviewer knows how to play NBA Live.
And all of them are playing rookie level. It's not fun to watch actually.

in one of the videos jason williams shoot about 2 feet within the three point line, marv alberts says "williams for three" it goes in but only counts as two.
Yeah i really hope they are playing on the rookie level. I read the defence was supposed to be really tight, this looks like and1 basketball. Nice dunk over Nowitzki by wade.
What i noticed was Stackhouse was no an X-factor with walker, in a video i saw earlier it was walker and howard.

[Andrew]

Thanks for the link, posted it in the news giving you credit.

[Silas]

if anyone deserves an X factor its Stackhouse, though I suppose howard deserves one too because whenver he scores 20 pts or more they usually win.

from what i read it is only given to bench players. That player who can come off the bench and change a game, like Horry.

[HtownBallaADL]

in the article......it said, dat x-factors are usually bench players

[volsey]

In the fadeaway jumper video, I didn't see one fadeaway jumper. In the pass and shoot, the only passes were half court passes. In the pick n' roll video, like 1 or 2 picks. And in the dunk and stuff there was 2 dunks in the begginning. The names were pretty pointless, I was hoping to see some actual animations. Oh, and btw, in one of the last few videos, I saw Diop dribble around Shaq and Jason Williams for a lay up... I thought they said there would be contact and that it would be hard to drive to the whole.

The passing mechanics are still flawed

Totaly agree, the ball goes way up and then drops to the players hands.

I feel like i'm watching NBA Live 06.

I actually thought it was for a while there until i noticed some noticable differences. Which made me sad, because i was hoping maybe they did actually accidently put Live06 up, for the sake of live07 not being so crap. What the hell did they improve? Not looking forward to this game... But i shall reserve judgement until i play it.

Man, exactly what I thought. As of right now, I'm kind of disappointed with what I'm seeing. The only noticeable difference to me, is the ESPN layout, and the fact that the game seems more difficult to play since everyone is colliding against each other all the time.

[Patr1ck]

Remember, they said you can control your passing by holding down the button for a hard pass or tapping it for a slow/lob pass. I don't read into any of these videos because the people playing don't know what they are doing.

Can't agree with you more,
In fact, after watching those Vids, I'm not exciting about playing the game at all. It will be no difference playing 06!!!

NBA Live is really a nice series of game, but seriously, 2K series is really more realistic, at least look like realistic.

I will still play 07 because its the only good basketball game on PC.
I was shocked by 2K7, and i really dont think live will be that defferent on next-gen.

[Melo_Poland]

there was a news about materrazi on this strip on the bottom

[CERVANTES]

NBA Live 07 will be 06.5 , just updated rosters, and new controls and few new animations, at least for Current Gen.

I really wish EA Sports not to disappoint me with the next gen version, it has cool features, but that won't mean anything if gameplay and cameras are still that crappy. I've been a big fan of Live series since the first SNES games, and I would like this series to be better than 2k games, but... well... let's wait for gameplay footage.

[SHAFT23]

is it me or is the sliding around still there?

one thing i noticed was that some of the lay ups at least go out and you cant just walse in and dunk or lay it in.

I think this was on rookie level and the normal game on superstar willbe better and these reviewers can't really play the game so to me i see some improvements, but i still have to see how it is before i bash it like i did last year.

there are some very subtle details improved. Overall, i'm saddened to say you're absolutely right: it's the same damn game. I hated Live 06 and won't buy this one for the looks of it. It's so awful... terrible passing animations, players STILL SLIDE; It's so arcadish...it reminds me of NBA Jam.

On video number 3 i guess, Jason Terry received a very high lob pass (even though he was open) jumping really high to get it and then made an awkward-looking bullet pass (that got through Jason Williams' chest) to DeSagana Diop at the 3-point line, who received it without even looking at the ball, and somehow dribled his way pass O'Neal and Williams for a lay-up attempt.

Too bad it's a PC basketball monopoly.
