Nba 2k10 worse than nba live 10? Really Gamespot?

I just looked at the two reviews and I have played both games and while it is true NBA live is better this year 2k10 is still the king imo.

I am not saying the review is right or wrong but I just wanted to see what other people think.

I for one think this 2k is great and a lot better than last years...

I bought NBA2K10 because I thought it was the better game.

I think that 2k10 is the best basketball game I have ever played... I really feel like I am playin a real game... but hey whatever

The review for NBA 2K10 is probably the worst review that I ever read on gamespot. In my opinion, it is probably the biggest improvement of an NBA game from one year to the next. And it is also WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY better than NBA Live 10.

[QUOTE="Rza_rectah"] WTF you just admited to live being better so whats the problem besides what you prefer?Rza_rectah

a comma goes a long way :lol:

anyway, i agree with TC; despite live's clear improvements, 2k Basketball is still top dog.

GS must be Kobe haters :P

I mean I can see the little gripes with the NBA 2k10 game, but bottom line is this is the best basketball sim game I have ever played. I mean I feel that my player mode is a totally different game and then you have all the other game modes that work great too.

Live has all was been the more acradey hasn't it? Anyways the reviewer was probably playing on Pro, needs to bump up the difficulty.Agent-Zero

well, i think GS just got fed up with how buggy the game is. i mean, they released a buggy game and expected Day 1 buyers to be beta testers.

I must admit that live 10 has stepped up their game big time, but i still prefer 2k10.

but by next year i expect vise-versa.

Gamespot is retarded. 2k10!!!!!

I've never understood the argument that 2K is a better basketball sim. Being an owner to both games, 2K, executes a smoother basketball product - when speaking of fluidity Live has no chance, but as far as trying to replicate the game of basketball on a disc, hands down to Live 10 and the Live series. NBA Live has proven its understanding for the actual game of basketball and other basketball players will cosign this. To be a half-way decent Live player you have to know the game of basketball. 2K on the other hand, I can grab any player that's rated 70+ and score 60 with them. How that demonstrates 2K being a better basketball simulation astonishes me. I can take a player like Charlie Villanueva and easily keep up with the opposition (scoring wise). Live forces you to run some sort of organized offense to be successful: pick and pop, hitting cutters, etc. I would give the basketball game of this year to NBA Live 10, but that's not so much of a knock on 2K as it is complimenting Live's improvement and clearly outdoing 2K THIS year. 2K fanboys at ease. Not here to start a war, solely projecting my opinion. Cheers.Ma_king

after reading that comment i have a very hard time believing you've played 2kbasketball gamesin the past. the comment about taking any 70+ rated player and score 60 is just dumb. i realize you were probably being dramatic but either way that comment is way off. i havent played much of live 10, but i know every previous iteration you could just take a player and pull off spins and cross overs all the way to the basket for a dunk. i honestly dont know how anyone can argue in live's favor when it comes to simulating the real game of basketball, and this is mostly talking about previous versions because as i said i havent played much of this years.

Yeah NHL wise, NHL 10 is much better than NHL 2k10, but when it comes to NBA, 2K can definitely produce a better sim.

EA in general can't make a good fluid game in sports lately, the madden crisis, the fight night failure, and live has been one of the most arcadey and cartoony moving basketball franchise for quite some time and it still moves that way. EA should stick to soccer and baseball, sometimes i think reviewers are paid under the table. Journalism taken a hit and Gaming Journalism isn't even respected cuz there's been evidence and rumors that ppl who are reviewing getting paid off...Terrible times we live in.

Amazing... I respect your opinion, but would disagree. I was a Live Fanboy, because I stayed with them all the way til the 360 and ps3 came out. I changed games after that with 2k7 on up. I am hoping for Live to get their act together and it looks like they are making strides in that direction, but 2k10 is a lot less arcadey in my opinion and is the better game overall. The comment about true ballers knowing the difference is true, because I have played ball all my life and love the My player mode because of the realisim and the game as a whole is that way(up the difficulty sir).

2k10 runs plays correctly, the defense is on point with deny and being able to play the passing lanes...

Also as far as those ful court passes goes you can not do that as much anymore... nor can you just throw it in the lane all easy. True it has some bugs... but all games do.

And why in the hell do you buy both basketball games?

You know, I was a 2k guy since 99 on dreamcast. This is the first year in 10 years I didnt get 2k. I bought LIVE 10, and honestly, its the best BBall game I have ever played.

I think the thread is legit... Gamespot is the only site I've seen that gave LIVE a better review then 2K... Something is fishy... Some people have different opinions but still alittle weird...Swavo69420

Something is rather fishy about that...
