Great game of basketball, but could be better

User Rating: 7.9 | NBA Live 2005 GC
This is a great game of basketball that can be reccomended to just about anyone, but this game could of been better. The reason why this game could of been better is that it is a great game, but it doesn't have enough features and doesn't have the best graphics. You first of all start out by obviously playing it, then you notice something good and something wrong. The good thing is that you're playing basketball in a video game. The bad news is that the graphics aren't as good as you expected. This some the things you'll notice when you start playing it. They're some new features in this game that you'll like or don't like. One of them is a new thing in the NBA All-Star weekend which is very known in the NBA today. IT'S THE SLAM DUNK CONTEST! This is a fun feature, but it takes a while to learn it and is very frustrating to learn. Second is some EA area. This is where you buy Hardwood Classic NBA Jerseys, buy some new shoes for your players, an EA Lounge, and even the EA Sports hall of fame. This isn't really a hall of fame. All it shows is records from season or Dynasty mode, records from the NBA's past, and retired jerseys. NBA LIVE 2005 is like I said, a great game of basketball, but could of been better. Expect some improvement in NBA LIVE 06. Hopefully. This game overall is great but could of been better. This game may not have the best graphics in the world, but is still good enough graphics to at least play it. The soundtrack is not as good as the MADDEN video games, but is still a great soundtrack. Great game of basketball, but you're probably to expect more from NBA LIVE 06 when it comes out.
