2K fanboys complain too much without realizing that it actually benefits both a secondary option to choose from and competition to make a better game. Madden and 2K are perfect examples of game developers getting comfortable. I used to buy them yearly but now I skip a year or two. Fuck spending $60 on menu changes and roster updates.
Binge Culture really looking forward to your 2k video mentioned in video. I fear if people lean too much to one game or the other the same thing will happen with EA money grabbing. Via Ultimate team (cash cow) look at fifa community. I was reading their financial report 2014-17 and first quarter of this year and that is a boasting point for them.
Bro thankk yooooooouuuuuu finally an unbiased take on live got tired of 2k heads talking about it was trash and live heads talking about its a flawless game. I dont know if yall noticed too but all the shooting bases are the exact same if you just look at their lower body to their feet qnd scroll down kind of fast when selecting their form that shits exactly identical they still got some work to do but great improvement from ladt year
TheRealCodeine lol im having trouble comprehending the motive behind your response but i guess its cool i have my associates in business my bachelors in computer science and my real estate license and have never had issues pulling girls idk why its just how my life has been and i would say its better than most so my friend you are def talking to the wrong nigga i play these games for two reasons, one because ive always been a sports fanatic as far as playing and watching and always will be, and two its sort of an escape from the world that for some reason fake ass hatin ass busta ass niggas such as yourself are overun with. I just have one question though seeing that your watching this and all and my comment which i dont think was that offensive obviously provoked an emotional response from you which clearly shows you were passionate about one of the two games i spoke on, could you have been doing a little projection of your own lifestyle......just some food for thought
What I don't understand is why 2k fans keep talking trash about Live? Live is clearly not on 2k's level and unless you want to be optimistic about Live being good competition, it's foolish to even think that Live is close to what 2k already is. It's like punching down at this point, and 2k shows it. But I don't think their fans understand.
James Burgess it's because EA is fucking ass. They took the football market by force. I remember nfl2k it was far better than madden but then EA did some bullshit, I want live to be decent but I'm glad EA is struggling.
Jace Solomon you talking shit about Live won't effect EA marketing practices. Live failing won't do much for EA at all, compared to the monopoly they have with football, soccer, hockey, and NASCAR games.
James Burgess no I'm explaining why LIVE sucks. EA is the worse gaming company if not overall company in the US . Also they bought the license to all other sports which not only is anti consumer but a disgusting practice.
Nba 2k became complacent after beating live. We need the 2k vs live competition si the game will get better. 2k is same game with 1 or 2 tweaks. I'd like to see live improve
Honestly after the patches during the DEMO, mind you, they patched the DEMO, (shows how sincere the dev team is in making this a good game), NBA Live 18's gameplay has honestly captured me. I pre-ordered this instead of 2k18, although I think I'll be buying both this year so I can decide what to get next year. :D
OrlandoFan Since2014 as opposed to patches in the middle of the year, like all the games released? What does that mean then? All games aren't ready? Demos aren't final products, the fact that they are releasing gameplay patches before the game comes out shows commitment to development, as opposed to patching a game in the middle of its shelf life, which by the way you already paid for. Stop nitpicking and start apprecitiating.
OrlandoFan Since2014 it's funny you say that bc 2k17 had like 7 patches within the SAME YEAR of its release. & I consider myself unbiased bc I play 2k as well. I'm pretty sure 2k will be better than live this year but I really appreciate the dev team for live, unlike 2k.
I paused your video to give you a thumbs up. People have been talking about NBA Live being robotic or stiff or herky jerky for years. It seems that people are finally seeing why it looks like that. I have talked about it as well and so have many others who have noticed it. The TORSO NOT BENDING is the reason. Great job pointing it out. We need more people showcasing this because it's a huge reason why people decide not to buy the game. It's easy to not look at it when you are playing but once you see it, it just continually jumps out as unnatural and can actually throw you off when it comes to making movement decisions in the game.
+Nolan lynch ...Yes I know I use to play them...EA bought the NFL license so 2K wouldn't make an official NFL game...this is why Madden is so popular now
Idgaf live is fucking FUN. It's a breath of fresh air after playing 2k for literally every year for the past fucking 20 years it seems like. 2k is the same every damn year, I plan on getting 2k for my switch and live for my ps4. I fuck with both of em but man live is great. I'm so tired of 2ks commentators and same dialogue. Live has van gundy and Mike Breen and Mark Jackson, it legit feels like a real broadcast. They also got max kellerman and loud mouth stephen a smith which is cool with me. And i NEVER do that whole my career thing in ANY sports game but live had me hooked. Obviously 2k is great but it's like MLB the show, year after recycled gameplay and commentary, it gets a bit dull.
My biggest complaint about 2k (I don't own either game, and have owned 2k exclusively since 2k9) is that when the servers shut down to make way for future games, my awesome MYCAREER player built up with VC is no longer available. I am not putting more time making a character that gets lost on the servers. Yes I know I can play offline, but then I have to start all over. Ain't nobody going to play offline from the start either.
How does dribble and cross over work? For 2k, it triggers an animation and you don't really control it. Sluggish gameplay. Is live smoother and tighter with dribbling?
Thanks for the unbiased but spot on review. I expected a lot more from EA since they took so much time off yet again. . . too much hype and not enough under the hood. . .
Tom Plays Our channel is only about a month old lol. But with continued support, we will eventually be as big as other RUclipsrs creating our kind of content.
Nbalive18 is the 1st live game I've ever played & it's actually fun to play the players actually use teamwork instead of hero ball it's more interesting
As long as there is competition in the market that's all I care about. I don't want one company controlling the whole basketball video game experience.
My only con in Live 18, is MOST shots even contested ones go in. It's annoying, feels like I'm playing Hangtime or Jam all over again. If I wanted to do that I'd start up my sega genesis
The thing most people don't understand about EA is what they do to the players. Right now they are doing great jobs in making Live 18 better and promoting it but once they get on hold of the market they become greedy assholes. For example FIFA 18, NHL 17 etc, EA doesn't give a shit about those games. Now that their are no other competitors for Soccer, Hockey and Football games EA only makes roster updates and more ultimate team cards for their games. But rn it's good for Basketball fans as, more competition in the Basketball gaming market = better games
nba 2k18 storyline and park is trash!! i cant even wear my own shoes!!😂😭 this will be the 2nd option now!!! sooner to be more realistic than 2k!! great job!!
Subscribers count severely downplayed the content of this channel. Well done. This is your honest opinion yet I feel like you went a little soft. For example, the graphics in EA are not in the same realm as 2K. That's ridiculous. 2K has perfected the art of Graphics and presentation.
Yet, I still disagree. I guess the lighting is more lively(hehe), but in terms of clarity, arenas, player faces, and player models, 2K is the golden standard. The same standard that they've seemed to surpassed in their next installment. Despite that, I'm still happy to see Live re-emerge from consecutive years of pure mediocrity. Live 18 is not the superior product, but it is of great necessity or 2k will keep disrespecting the market.
Watching this after the 2k18 reveal has me dead. Live had a chance until August 31st now that we know what we do this game is looking like a fat joke hahaha
Because 'the neighborhood'? You realize that all the neighborhood is... is that they put a STORE in there in place of the menu. So you can walk into the store to spend a ton of VC on clothes/shoes, instead of just going to a menu. Go watch some more videos and see how you're gonna have to pay even more VC this year for basic jumpshot and dribble animations and how it's clocking 195k VC to max a player to 85 overall. That's right. 85 overall. Then you have to grind practice and whatever else, and spend probably another 200k VC to get to 99. And even then, you're hard-capped on most of the stats, so you're "99 overall" but you're still not Jordan/LeBron/Kobe/etc. You're the same garbage stat-capped roleplayer but with a token 99 rating to shut the fans who complained up. And you just WAIT and see how much server lag you're gonna get hit with in that "neighborhood.' The first month, at least, the game is gonna be unplayable.
Great video bro, I agree with a lot of what you said. The Live 18 is def. an improvement, this may be the best game of the franchise but it still has a long way to go but it'll be good to take a break from 2K for a while to play something new and refreshing, not worth 60 dollars to me, but I think 40 is a good deal. The One sold me, I think they did a pretty good job with that mode.
They spent all this money on youtubers to highlight it but 2k did very little marketing and still blew them out the water, now I agree nba live is a lot better then years before but still has nothing on 2k
I preordered Live 18 since it looked decent(I know it's not on 2k's level), but I had to cancel it since it STILL doesn't have roster editing, and there's no news at all. It's almost like ea are hiding the game. The gameplay is also shaky with all of the arcadey and unrealistic layups I've seen being made consistently.
Honestly after watching more gameplay I feel like most of the animations are super smooth and arguably better than 2k. Maybe not jump shot but I think it's Bc they time it to the meter a bit rather than the meter timed to the shot
I say you can't tell if Nba Live 18 is trash yet Aug 11 Demo comes out. But it really is no excuse to stick with 2k I respect live but after 2k17 an the issue it had out the gate an the way the Dev Community kinda let 2k17 die slowly instead of fixing issues
Send me the link if you can because it's dope. On another note, I subscribed to your channel bro, and you bought up some very good points. Looking forward to what you think about the prelude..
The only thing wrong with Live 18 it's the pace of the game, it feels very slow. I know that you can change the speed of the game in offline modes but not online and multiplayer is the main core of any actual sport game. If EA can fix this before the release date I don't see me buying 2K this year.
As far as the 3 point shot success, have you taken difficulty into consideration? Might be like 2K. The lower the difficulty, the higher the shot success. If you’ve played this game on its highest level and you’re making that many 3’s, it is an issue
EA shot meter went from smooth to non-existent. It chops from too early to too late without progressing between extremes. You have to guess when you make a distance shot. It used to work, but the network fails, everything is choppy, and 3 pointers have become totally random.
Good vid bro,getting a bit tired of 2ks Vc greed,but from watching this video,Live isn't an option for me,looks very bad,the things you point out,defending looks horrible Good vid though
Even with all said I still feel like Live not being pc posses interesting issues that the team is still working on their engine and overall polish with the game. I like seeing live back because at least theres some options.
I agree with the vc aspect but you are completely wrong saying that fifa has more playing modes than 2k (me being a fifa player since 2006) 2k is years ahead in career mode features and myplayer features
Was stupid it is is that people keep going back and forth about live in 2K when you got two options out there that you can play if you want to play 2K by 2K if you want to play live by live but don't sit here and knock NBA Live respect the fact that life is here because at the end of the day if if NBA Live was not here NBA 2K we're not have came out with the neighborhood and it will not have fixed them controllers the way they did they would not have fixed the shooting it would have been the same repetitive game so I don't know why people in the 2K community and live Community is sitting here still bashing each other when you should enjoy both cut both of them
Great video. I agree with everything you said. Graphics and layup animations are dope. really need to fix the jumpshot animations and the 3 point percentage.
Ive played NBA 2k for a few years now and this year I own both. NBA live to me feels way more fun except for the types of players you choose hinders every other aspect of your game. If you choose a driving player, you cant shoot 2s at all and dont even think about 3s. Doesnt really make sense to me when you have say Kyrie Irving who can shoot, pass, and drive the lane. At least in 2k you can grind out badges to increase your jumpers if have a C/PF that is all about the post. That's about the only edge I give to 2K this year. Neighborhood is garbage compared to The One, Shooting is garbage(although the animations do look better). Just my opinion.
I love the fact that we actually have 2 games to compare. All the bitching back and forth is a good thing. At least it's not like football where all u have is madden,which gets worse every year.
If live gets more into their animations it would be the better game honestly. The gameplay would not be touched by 2k because 2k keeps cheese and doesn't reward fundamentals unless you have badges.
I understand the animation your talking about.... But that dude who got crossed in the Nba Live clip was Trying to Defend you an you hit him with a in an out step
Nba lives animation's are very stiff but the game itself is very consistent with realism and it's fun to play with friends. 2k is unfortunately just frustrating as hell to play with friends because of the dribble cheeses and square spamming. Mypark's connection is absolutely dreadful still.
Live the type off game where when u mad af on 2k from my park u turn dat game off and head to live
Om2k17 TV and then rage cuz u can’t do shit on live😭😭
DC4 _ because you trash
Faxx
Oh so Waveee yes bruh so my cuz
Oh so Waveee and u the type "OF" nigga to misspell "OF"
Complaining about 3pointers on Live is hypocritical because 99.9% of all 2K cheese is based off sharpshooters.
2K fanboys complain too much without realizing that it actually benefits both a secondary option to choose from and competition to make a better game. Madden and 2K are perfect examples of game developers getting comfortable. I used to buy them yearly but now I skip a year or two. Fuck spending $60 on menu changes and roster updates.
you are dead on! im excited 4 NBA LIVE because now I have a secondary game option.
Jeffrey Cortinas Thank you very much! More content on the way

#DELETED iAmKung nah
Totally right about the robot shooting !
Been like that since 1997! Yes devs dont much play bball I guess
J'Artagnian Copria you read not much I guess. NAW but frfr I put money on it that they trash as hell if they did actually play basketball
Bro thankk yooooooouuuuuu finally an unbiased take on live got tired of 2k heads talking about it was trash and live heads talking about its a flawless game.

ddnt23 you rekt his ass bro
ddnt23 first of all it's a ea game like wtf they took last year off it's there first game when they didn't make one last year cut them some slack

jarvin21 Exactly! They didnt need to patch the demo but they did anyway. I trust EA's dev team unlike 2k's.
Patches on demos isn't a good thing, it means it wasn't fully ready
OrlandoFan Since2014 as opposed to patches in the middle of the year, like all the games released? What does that mean then? All games aren't ready? Demos aren't final products, the fact that they are releasing gameplay patches before the game comes out shows commitment to development, as opposed to patching a game in the middle of its shelf life, which by the way you already paid for.

OrlandoFan Since2014 actually demos should be where patches are done instead of throughout the life of the game.

If 2K could make a football game....Madden wouldn't exist anymore either
Kewon Taylor they did yrs ago if I'm not mistaken.
Kewon Taylor they used make them and they where honestly pretty damn good.
+Nolan lynch ...Yes I know I use to play them...EA bought the NFL license so 2K wouldn't make an official NFL game...this is why Madden is so popular now
Kewon Taylor still miss my crib
Kewon Taylor NFL 2k5 wasn't that good especially in season mode it got boring after season one kid haha give it up
Idgaf live is fucking FUN. It's a breath of fresh air after playing 2k for literally every year for the past fucking 20 years it seems like. 2k is the same every damn year, I plan on getting 2k for my switch and live for my ps4.

Watching this I thought you are a bigger youtuber... Well done, keep up the good standard and u will grow quick
DJ Žanis Very flattering! Thank you
Binge Culture also u know its on pro
2:37 dont dribble with low stamina kids (also get better hoop shoes)
You know you're doing something right when you have more views than subs👍
Ellen Degenerate you are doing something wrong if you have more subs then views
Omicron TK not really, pewdiepie doesnt get 50m view.
My biggest complaint about 2k (I don't own either game, and have owned 2k exclusively since 2k9) is that when the servers shut down to make way for future games, my awesome MYCAREER player built up with VC is no longer available. I am not putting more time making a character that gets lost on the servers. Yes I know I can play offline, but then I have to start all over. Ain't nobody going to play offline from the start either.
I gotta subscribe. Everything was constructive and honest
Ellen Degenerate Thank you, very much appreciated!
Binge Culture I like both I think 2k is better but I'm gonna get both because there both gonna be fun and decent
How does dribble and cross over work? For 2k, it triggers an animation and you don't really control it. Sluggish gameplay. Is live smoother and tighter with dribbling?
Why do you only have 830subs?great video quality dude. Keep it up. Subbed. 🤘
Thanks for the unbiased but spot on review. I expected a lot more from EA since they took so much time off yet again. . . too much hype and not enough under the hood. . .
much needed video. I definitely felt the praise of live was a bit too much for the videos they released. this was proven with the demo. great video!
Everytime steph shoots 3 its like u just know it going in
What, haha 530 subs, v nice vid you deserve more subs imho
My biggest issue with live is they don’t let you adjust rosters anymore I just don’t get that
Maaaaan damn, that was well done. Definitely going to earn some subs with this one.
Amazing video man! Honestly I don't think EA will ever come par to 2k's dominance. The graphics & all still seem too far behind.
+TheHipHopGuru Thank You! Very much appreciated!
Bro how do you not have 100,000+ subscribers wtf?! You just earned a sub from this vid ;)
CJS4128 damn thank you! It's only a matter of time.
Np bro when I was watching this, I thought you were a huge ass youtuber. Btw ur almost at 150 subs!
How do you only have 198 subs? lol
Tom Plays Our channel is only about a month old lol. But with continued support, we will eventually be as big as other RUclipsrs creating our kind of content.
Ea said it was on pro the second easiest mode
Dari Caceres That explains the way too consistent 3s then. Thanks for clearing that up!
Binge Culture Yeah man it had to be on pro. I saw DeRozan hit a contested 3 in one of those gameplays
Binge Culture yep all nba lives have insanely high fg attempt makes on easy difficulty
Binge Culture still doesn’t justify the animations tho
Badasi12b That's the same with 2k, though.
ive also noticed that the narrator from street homecourt and live 18 are the same person
I subbed!
Nbalive18 is the 1st live game I've ever played & it's actually fun to play the players actually use teamwork instead of hero ball it's more interesting
That sounds like a perfect description of what ea does with Madden since they have no competition
Loved the intro, made me feel like i was playing a rpg haha
TheLegitLifeProject That's what I was aiming for!
I have nba live 18 and i don't even know what you're talking about. the animation is great.
robotic leaning jumpers are the normal movements of the 70's 80's 90's nba players.. they were very static and fundamental
This was a great analysis man!
As long as there is competition in the market that's all I care about. I don't want one company controlling the whole basketball video game experience.
My only con in Live 18, is MOST shots even contested ones go in. It's annoying, feels like I'm playing Hangtime or Jam all over again. If I wanted to do that I'd start up my sega genesis
See now I appreciate this. Truly unbiased. Thank you
The thing most people don't understand about EA is what they do to the players.

Now that their are no other competitors for Soccer, Hockey and Football games EA only makes roster updates and more ultimate team cards for their games. But rn it's good for Basketball fans as, more competition in the Basketball gaming market = better games
After playing the demo. the 3s and tough contested layups fall too much.
king Dione stop playing on pro
Huey Freeman Superstar
king Dione change the sliders
Huey Freeman it's the same thing in online game mode it's so fake bruh
king Dione they just patched it.

I just subscribed you the truth bro 💯

nba 2k18 storyline and park is trash!! i cant even wear my own shoes!!😂😭 this will be the 2nd option now!!! sooner to be more realistic than 2k!! great job!!
give me a box score so i know how well i'm playing and change the ui for the scoreboard and i'll call ea

noneoftheabove101 to be fair, this video was posted before 2K18 screenshots and gameplay had been revealed so I was comparing Lives graphics to 2K17

noneoftheabove101 I agree with you on the graphics part but Live's graphics isn't bad either. Now Live always kicks 2k ass in presentation though.
First line:Boy u high as fuck
m10Grizzly It's sarcasm lol I figured most people would catch on. My videos are intended for people that are able to comprehend shit like that.
Binge Culture i responded before watchin the whole video i caught it lol
Watching this after the 2k18 reveal has me dead. Live had a chance until August 31st now that we know what we do this game is looking like a fat joke hahaha
Umlokii Not really the 2k trailer didnt really have much.
Mark Szczubial the event not the trailer hahahahah
Mark Szczubial wow youre fucking dumb
Because 'the neighborhood'? You realize that all the neighborhood is... is that they put a STORE in there in place of the menu. So you can walk into the store to spend a ton of VC on clothes/shoes, instead of just going to a menu.

Will there be trade players on live 18
Great Vid!! Except I actually have seen KD shoot that exact same shot the exact same way
Subbed good stuff
They spent all this money on youtubers to highlight it but 2k did very little marketing and still blew them out the water, now I agree nba live is a lot better then years before but still has nothing on 2k
I’m on nba live side but I respect your opinion and agree you got a new sub

You can turn down the 3 point sliders
Diversity and variation in lay-ups?! I swear I had Zaza doing that behind-the-backboard Dr.J lay-up just like every other player in the demo....
EA making a game to challenge a game that has pay to win features? That's ironic because every single EA game in recent years has been a pay fest.
Why doesn't anyone talk about how nba live is using the same game engine from nba live 14
Can someone please tell me what the dope beat in the background is???
Big D Ministry It's just a free-use instrumental I found on RUclips lol it's not an actual song or nothing like that
Send me the link if you can because it's dope. On another note, I subscribed to your channel bro, and you bought up some very good points. Looking forward to what you think about the prelude..
2K does it all the time. Inviting youtubers is a page out of the 2K playbook.
The only thing wrong with Live 18 it's the pace of the game, it feels very slow. I know that you can change the speed of the game in offline modes but not online and multiplayer is the main core of any actual sport game.
If EA can fix this before the release date I don't see me buying 2K this year.
After playing the live demo and playing thru the prelude I like live better so far we'll see how things go
I honestly don't know how people think Live has better graphics. I will say, the courts don't look bad, but the players look like an embarrassment.
It just fresh I'm sure they will make improvements so chill out they still working on the game bro
As far as the 3 point shot success, have you taken difficulty into consideration? Might be like 2K. The lower the difficulty, the higher the shot success. If you’ve played this game on its highest level and you’re making that many 3’s, it is an issue
EA shot meter went from smooth to non-existent. It chops from too early to too late without progressing between extremes. You have to guess when you make a distance shot. It used to work, but the network fails, everything is choppy, and 3 pointers have become totally random.
I always wonderd why the movement looked akward, now I know why.
This is before the release of the 2k18 my career trailers
KD's jumpshot @ 0:14 was so realistic
I'm a 2k guy..but I was kinda feeling live 18...I just waiting for the whole game to drop to get a full fill of the game
Good vid bro,getting a bit tired of 2ks Vc greed,but from watching this video,Live isn't an option for me,looks very bad,the things you point out,defending looks horrible
Good vid though
Live feels more realistic and more difficult than 2k resulting in a fresh new game that could end up being better
I didn't purchase nba 2k18 this time. Live 18 was a breath of fresh air. I'm not spending anymore money with nba 2k I will buy live from now on
"Don't want it become a 5v5 3 point shoot out" have you watch any NBA games the last few years?
Funny how this got a 2k commercial
I believe you’re trying to get a job in their marketing campaign somehow. Kool video tho
KoldBlooded Billy LMAO not exactly but I sure as hell wouldn't turn it down!
I see you with the birocratic music!!!!
I fee like people want to like Live just because everyone says 2K is trash. But let's be real, you're still gonna play 2K and 2K is still better.
Even with all said I still feel like Live not being pc posses interesting issues that the team is still working on their engine and overall polish with the game. I like seeing live back because at least theres some options.
'She didn't know what he did!!!!! (GONE SEXUAL)'
What did he expose ?
I agree with the vc aspect but you are completely wrong saying that fifa has more playing modes than 2k (me being a fifa player since 2006) 2k is years ahead in career mode features and myplayer features
Was stupid it is is that people keep going back and forth about live in 2K when you got two options out there that you can play if you want to play 2K by 2K if you want to play live by live but don't sit here and knock NBA Live respect the fact that life is here because at the end of the day if if NBA Live was not here NBA 2K we're not have came out with the neighborhood and it will not have fixed them controllers the way they did they would not have fixed the shooting it would have been the same repetitive game so I don't know why people in the 2K community and live Community is sitting here still bashing each other when you should enjoy both cut both of them
2k and ea got together for one NBA game and let ea do the extra layup details for every player and let 2k do the rest it will be amazing.
You should pick up nba live and play "the one"
Ellen Degenerate Good suggestion, I'll probably do that especially because of the amount of attention NBA LIVE has been receiving lately.
Very good video very good #Risetogether
damn my nigga 439 subscribers ?????? Should have 400K on the way to a mil this video was good
Well it's the demo what do you think
Malakye Jones The demo is how the game is going to play. Don't be fooled into thinking there will be a huge difference in gameplay with the full game.
Great video. I agree with everything you said. Graphics and layup animations are dope. really need to fix the jumpshot animations and the 3 point percentage.
Ive played NBA 2k for a few years now and this year I own both. NBA live to me feels way more fun except for the types of players you choose hinders every other aspect of your game. If you choose a driving player, you cant shoot 2s at all and dont even think about 3s. Doesnt really make sense to me when you have say Kyrie Irving who can shoot, pass, and drive the lane. At least in 2k you can grind out badges to increase your jumpers if have a C/PF that is all about the post. That's about the only edge I give to 2K this year. Neighborhood is garbage compared to The One, Shooting is garbage(although the animations do look better). Just my opinion.
2k not making improvements each year. It's nice to see live bring on competition
I love the fact that we actually have 2 games to compare. All the bitching back and forth is a good thing. At least it's not like football where all u have is madden,which gets worse every year.
If live gets more into their animations it would be the better game honestly. The gameplay would not be touched by 2k because 2k keeps cheese and doesn't reward fundamentals unless you have badges.
I understand the animation your talking about.... But that dude who got crossed in the Nba Live clip was Trying to Defend you an you hit him with a in an out step
Nba lives animation's are very stiff but the game itself is very consistent with realism and it's fun to play with friends. 2k is unfortunately just frustrating as hell to play with friends because of the dribble cheeses and square spamming. Mypark's connection is absolutely dreadful still.
4:03 Won't lie to I would have effectively quit this game if this happens to me
