XB NBA Live 2006 review:5 stars (oh my god another great one from the champ EA) - all i need to say is get your money and go to a toy store right now. This game is so hot that their abilties play like real life I SERIOUS.example sthephen jackson from the pacers does'nt have a symbol but still drains 3s like in real life. BUY IT
2 stars (No better than last year) - NBA 06 is kind of fun, but not really good. I mean, it has the exact same features as NBA 2005. The slam dunk contest, dynasty mode,season mode and everything else. The only new feature that they added this year was that freestyle superstar thing, where each player has a certain type of personality. For example, A. Iverson is a shooter, Lebron James is a highflyer, etc. But who cares about that? It doesn't really make the game anymore exciting than last year's version. It also doesn't affect how the players perform on the court. They'll still shoot the same and defend the same as always. When EA created Madden 06, they actually took time to add more than one new feature that people would actually care about. They added the new QB vision cone, superstar mode, rad new features to franchise mode and more. Then, people bought it because it was new AND exciting. NBA Live 06 isn't like that. They only added one new boring feature and the rest are the same as last year. To whoever is reading this, if you haven't bought it yet, don't waste your money on it when you can buy NBA 2005 for $12 and still get the same thing. If you have bought it, return it to the store and keep NBA 2005. Anyway, I think they could have done alot better when they made this game3 stars (EA Sports Holding Back?) - Thanks to brand loyalty and the Madden series, EA Sports games are all I play. And usually, I'm pretty satisfied with the new game that comes out every year. Until now. Did the NBA Live series get put on the backburner in development labs? The game hasn't changed enough to warrant the upgrade this year, for multiple reasons.
- There isn't anything I dispise more than outdated rosters. If a few transactions happen late, I understand. But these rosters are so outdated that the game feels unrealistic at first sight.
- The graphics have improved significantly, don't get me wrong. But there are some faults that I can't get myself to overlook. The combination of wrinkles in the jerseys and oversized heads make for a laughable presentation until you get used to it.
- The special modes aren't anything special, still. The slam dunk conteset and 3pt shootout are always fun, but beyond that I'm not impressed. Make what you want of the dynasty mode, but be honest; it could be drastically improved. I would love to see NBA Live implement the Superstar mode as in Madden!
- Gameplay in general I think is still pretty fun.
-- Dunking: Much more realistic and entertaining.
-- Rebounding: I'm not having much trouble. Pretty standard.
-- Passing: Needs easier passing icons still, and greater control. (Hasn't changed)
-- Shooting: Freestyle controls try and make it realistic, but I agree become confusing (shooter versus dunker, for example) if you don't immediately know what player you are using.
-- Blocking: Big improvement. You can't block 20 shots a game anymore.
-- Stealing: Still a little too easy to get 10 steals a game.
Overall the game is lacking, but I wonder if EA was saving some tricks for XBOX 360. It seems like they have so much more potential, and it was held back a bit in this release. To be honest you don't need to go out and buy this one, but it's still fun in the end if you are a die hard NBA Live as myself.
