I must say that I do own both games.. NBA 2k10 for the PS3 and NBA Live 10 on the 360 and NBA Live 10 owns this year! NBA 2k10 lags horribly when playing online and the character model on 2k10 look like PS2 graphics when playing online, NBA live 10 gameplay is fun, a lot less frustrating and overall a lot more accessible and i think it looks better graphically also. Its safe to say that NBA Live 10 takes the crown this year

2k series still PLAYS better. Thats what matters in sports games. I agree, Live10 looks better, but it still pales in the gamplay department, but it is ALOT better than it used to be

NBA 2K10 still blows Live away.....2K10 does have some bugs, networking issues and framerate issues though, but supposedly they're working on a patch to fix all of this according to the developer comments on the 2K boards.

Agreed! This is coming from someone who supported 2K over Live in the past years.

2K10 moves too slow and the online is just buggy/laggy on both systems. Live 10 offers the best seamless online experience I have seen in a B-ball game(if your connection is great).

For all you you thinking Live is too easy because it is a dunkfest, you are terribly mistaken. It is challenging to drive to the lane, and alot of times a center or power foward will stop you in your tracks.

Not to mention Live 10 is more fun to boot. You can have a decent outside shooting game if you play right.

i've always enjoyed live a lot more...and this year is no exception

2K sports games gameplay just feels to arcadey to me...live feels more realistic

live has better presentation as of late, and the commentary is quite amazing (best out of ALL sports games, not just b-ball)

Arcadey? you cant be serious....and 2K10's commentary and presentation have been re-done and its one of the BEST parts of this years game. Live's pales in comparison.

Live has to RE-DO itself....because the other iterations have been TERRIBLE unlike 2K. Dont fix what isnt broken.

did you watch the review?? commentators only report the scores correctly, the other commentary is repetitive, not dynamic like in 2k series. Madden has the same problems, and 2k didnt

2K9 was a dunk-fest and the outside shooting was not up to snuff. You cant hit fadeaways with Kobe in 2K but you can do it in Live, just like he does on the court.

2K10 tried to reduce it by adding a turbo meter. If a baller steals the ball they will race down the court and score, 2K10 has this meter and by the time you are at the end you are slow and the D catches up to you. 2K10 is way too slow.

I own 2K10. I simply moved the game speed slider up from 50 to 57 and its absolutely perfect.

NBA 2k10 is killing live again this year... Its a dunkfest if you play on rookie or play someone who sucks. I never noticed any lag in the paint and im playing on ps3. I only play of hall of fame or superstar and its very realistic. On Live everyone moves the same... Kobe Bryant moves just like Dwight Howard just faster with better dribbling skills. Live stepped it up but it still is easy and to fast. I dont have any of the problems some of you say you have with 2k10except online play sucks but i play with friends anyway.

Live is terrible. Hasnt been good since Live 95 for the SNES. 2k10 is awesome and plays awesome as well. As far as the bugs go, they are releasing a patch by weeks end, so no worries. Maybe next year Live lol

Every year its the same from the Live hopefulls. This is the year, This is the year. I havn't played either yet. But 2k has been on top for a long time now. Live needs a facelift, been down hill since this gen began. Though I've been hearing about many complaints about how 2k10 this year is very buggy. Maybe 2k is slipping on their pimping and got a bit lazy this year. But Im sure there will be a nice patch to sort these issues out.

LOL!! Yeah. I hated NBA 2K9 though. There were bugs in it from 4 years ago. Your computer controlled Team mates were dumb as a brick. I heard this year, they are even dumber, which doesn't make me happy. I decided to never pay full price for any of these basketball games as I've gotten burned to often. I'll pick up both games next year sometime for under $40. I actually liked NBA Live 09 better as the teams shot close to their shooting %'s, In NBA 2K10 the computer would shoot 60-70% the 1st half and then should 45-55% in the 2nd half to try and even out the percentage. The A.I. was terrible. I watch rebounds bounce right in from of my controller controlled players and they either wouldn't run toward the ball or would run through it. Meantime the CPU team would get near the ball and it would rubber band into their hands. This would happen several times in a game. Balls bounce through player's torsos. Hand passing through the ball during a block. Even the stats were jacked up. At the end of the game the 1st or 2nd quarter stats would be removed from the totals when you checked the Team and Player status. If you checked the shot stats, instead of seeing your player 9-21 shooting, you'd see 6 - 14, as the 1st quarter 3-7 was removed. This bug has been in the game for the past 4 years.

Um, think lag on 2k might have to do with playing on PSN? Just saying.

youre joking right??? NBA 2K10 might possibly be the best improvement for a sports game in a years time. Sure NBA Live got less garbage, but it isnt even close to the gameplay/graphics/ and definitely presentation of NBA 2K10!!!

Wow, how are you going to talk about NBA 2K games and not NBA Live games being glitchy!!!!

NBA Live games are always the glitch of the year for video games.

Their games a couple of years ago (when I had the PS2) made it look like the players were floating on ice when they moved!!!

no way. 2k still plays wayyyy better. its much more of a basketball sim. as where live just seems too arcading for my tastes. but ill go with the reviews and my own play experiences.
