These are some more nice vids of Live.

nice injury ...and prince should get injured cuz he's so thin...if the can have accuracy with the injuries the game is pretty much set...

I can't watch the video but I was wondering since Vin said 'nice injury' do injuries now happen alot in-game?

Yes they do because on the first video Prince went up for a dunk and he was fouled and he got injured. It was a great animation.

Nice.

So there is not only injuries this year...but we actually get to see the injured player grimace in pain...nice.

man..... they've added a LOT of cut scenes this year.... good stuff

i hope injuries will last for days or weeks not quarters like in '96

YUP, me likes.

Whoa that Fro of ben's kind of looks like Mr t's mohawk!

Very nice videos... I didn't like Ben Wallace's hair though...

I don't know why so many people have gripes about Wallace's hair. It looks very much like the REAL version.

His hair is not a perfect semi-circle like in Live 2003. And everyone here knows his 'fro is not a thing of beauty.

I agree Rey J, there was a post here a while back showing how Wallace looks in real life with his fro and the nba live version. The 2 fro's looked the same. I think EA took in consideration that wallace's fro isn't this perfect circle but a wild bush of hair that seems to squeeze out of his headband.

Haha! "wild bush"... i like that!

On another note, I think Wallace looks a lot more intimidating in the game with his 'fro lookin' all over the place. The guy's an animal in real life anyway.

Also, I don't know if anyone else realises this, but the court seems smaller. Is it just me?

Oh and one last thing, did every shot in those videos appear like they were all swishes?

Nice, especially the commentary. I believe this is the first time the commentators actually acknowledge a player's injury...and they even offer a quick analysis of the impact it will have on the team's fortune!

i realy like the videos. it looks a lot better then from the '18min video'.
the injury looks good, although he's normal for like a second, then he gooes in to a complete diferent animation (same goes for most layups)... that will probebly be improved though, it was much worse in the '18min video'
a thing that i still feel is bad is the passing, it looks wierd most times, in a way it looks that they just throw it somewhere and it acedentely stands a player there

but man, the dunk at the end look so sweet, it's awsome.
the blocks look very nice , defenetly a step up from 'swatt-fest-2003'


+ it looks that they completely fixed the 'colision'-thingy

awesome videos, I really like the webber block on sura and the 2 handed sura dunk, looked very realistic.

sura? i thougt it was darko milicic.

the dunk was by Sura,
but Milicic is in the game to... he got the ball a short while...

I liked most of what I saw. Some of the off the ball movement is still a bit clunky. Ie. Ben Wallace going into running animation to get 1 foot closer to the rim as the ball goes up. I simple motion captured step in would be good.

The Jackson set shot strange looking shot was kinda cool in the last video. The contact around the rim looks good too. I was also pleased to see that the rebounding stats popping up looked pretty good. Sura was player of the game and his stats were pretty realistic 10/19 from the field. Mind you I'm not sure if Bobby Sura has ever shot over 50 percent in a game in his life

Another thing I've noticed, the dunks seem normal to me--I haven't see any over the top dunks as of yet? I like the fact that the dunks are not oo fancy. The animations look very good in this game.

I didn't like how Bob Sura had 26 points and pog.

I liked everything else, the injury cut scenes will probably be a lot like madden 2004, with different ones depeneding on what you injured.

Good sh!t. Also on the pause menu they have the game leaders in stats great

Yea, but i hope to see some flash dunks when a player is on a fast break and there is noone around. Again, this should happen only rarely.
