"It's ugly, the controls are terrible, and the game is nearly unplayable."

That's pretty bad, the x360/PS3 versions got 7.5 :lol:

Maybe I should say it a little bit more nicely; there have been threads on this, but since this is the only thing about it on the first page, go ahead and discuss.

I've noticed the score difference between this and other versions, and can only say that EA really screwed up this time.

IGN said it was good in their previews.:? It can't turn out THAT bad.

On the Wii forums, some people said they liked the game too.

I'm starting to think GS is losing it. Can't be that bad.

Well, it wasn't a FPS nor did it have chainsaws. It was doomed for failure.

Thats what I thought. And some of the user reviews actually praised the controls and said they were good. Everyone did say the graphics were terrible though. It probably deserved more of a 5-6 than a 3 I think.

First of all Nba Live is an absolute trash game, any version. Nba 2k versions are clearly better just like pes and fifa. Also its a sports game so most people on system wars don't care. Thirdly when has Ea every produced anything of quality. Everytime i play one of their sports games i just get more angry at the unrealistic garbage that is going on.

the game looks like NBA LIVE 06 for GC :|. The controls seem ok during the video presentation but 3 is a little harsh.

The wiimote will need to be worked on for awhile to be good for most genres. First time any technology is implemented, they have to be experimented on alot to get good results. Next gen motion control will be much better. For wii, it's the experimental stage. So genres that are tough to implement in motion control will be mostly bad for wii this gen.

What do you expect from an overclocked Game Cube.

Nintedo rep: we have failed with the Gamecube, let's repackage it in a sexy white case, and add waggle control!!

Nintendo rep no2.: Those casuals wont know the difference! Brilliant!!

$250 for an overclocked Gamecube

The people who fell for it, priceless.

Hype or no hype the wii 3rd party and multipats are terrible. What will save and what ppl buy the wii for is their main nintendo game. The wii controller dosen't work withany genre. For every AAAE their will beseven 0-4 games and for every AAE their will befour 0-4 games. And thats being generous...
