No Arcade game here
The Good:
*The animations and movements are really fluid and smooth
*The crowd looks really nice
*The computer swiches players on picks
*No framedrops during any part of the game
*Has minigames (air hockey, darts)
*Stealing the ball is more controlable (when anticipating a pass)
*Impossible to win by a big margin ( dont know if its a good or a bad thing)
*Has a Street mode where you can play a 5 on 5, 4 on 4, 3 on 3, 2 on 2 or 1 vs 1
*In the Street mode, theres some celibrities like Flavor flav, Common, Questlove
*A lot of the players do move just like they do in real life
*The online is perfect, you can play a normal game, street ball, or 1 on 1 (The best part of the game)
The Negative:
*The buzzer doesnt sound sometimes
*Open wide shots dont go in a lot of times (kinda frustrating)
*Free throws are kinda hard online
*Some stats are clearly off. Bobby Simmons cant be better than Ray Allen in 3pt
*Some players faces are way off ( the less known players and some known players)
*Hard to drive in, without setting a play
*In rare occassions, the jerseys dissapear and they look like they had no jersey
*In rare occassions, the camera locks you out of view when in inbound passes.
*Posting up is a lil too automatic
Not having a gamespot review for live07 after the release date seems like a dirty tactic by EA, IMO. Bear in mind I havent played nba live 07 on one short occassion, once i do for a good amount of time, ill make a review for it and make any corrections to this review.
