IGN- NBA Live 14 Review

IGN:NBA Live’s flaccid return is made all the more disappointing because we waited three years for it. After all that time, NBA Live 14 in no way advances the basketball sim genre and, worse, leaves little to be optimistic about for next year. Here’s hoping EA figures something out, otherwise this series’ comeback is going to be short-lived.

Yet again, washed up drunk of a basketball game NBA Live comes back again only to pass out in its own vomit, smh. I used to love these games like 10 years ago but damn they have fallen on some hard times.

frostypants3804d ago

EA is as crappy as 2K is awesome. Imagine if 2K sports could still do NFL games...

MajorJackHoff3804d ago

That's what happens when you rehash your games for years and years and years. People eventually get tired of the same garbage.

I'm looking at you, Call of Duty.

DOMination-3803d ago

Hmm not really though cod has likr a 75% attach rate with ps4. I hardly call that consumers getting tired of the product

AliTheSnake13804d ago

How is the gameplay, They didn't address it.
I hate NBA2k's gameplay, It's a simulation.

3-4-53804d ago

lol they took time off to fix this and made it worse...

2k wins again

sigfredod3804d ago

Ouchh that was a lower score than expected

Neonridr3804d ago

NBA2K14 is clearly the way to go

DrRobotnik3804d ago

That's why I wish so bad NFL2K comes back.

JeffGUNZ3804d ago

the laft NFL 2K made was amazing.

NYC_Gamer3804d ago (Edited 3804d ago )

I'm not surprised by the score after watching EA play the game last night

Ketzicorn3804d ago

So Live took a few years off to get worse.

bonafide7323804d ago

thats crazy. almost defeats the purpose of taking a off a few years

G_Hartley_3803d ago

they took two years off. Ate at Mcdonalds everyday, Didn't work out and thought it would come back bigger and strong.. Sounds like many people in today world ;)

Why so many updates with NBA Live 14?

When NBA Live 14 was released last November, the reviews, as stated before, weren’t flattering. Many fours and fives were given out to the franchise’s first title in four years, which didn’t sit well with the development team at EA Sports.

These low scores lead the team to realize that they couldn’t just wait until NBA Live 15 was released to address a lot of the issues. Instead, they worked countless hours to prepare gameplay and visual updates to NBA Live 14 to prove to their audience that they weren’t just in it for the money.

“We got hammered, and we didn’t like seeing the scores that were coming in,” executive producer Sean O’Brien said.

Some pretty good deals here but this is for Europe only.

djplonker3628d ago

Yeah they need to put "eu" or "na" in the title... eu didn't get those 0.99 flash sales awhile back :(

user14394143628d ago

PS Nation are here again giving the FANS what they want. XoXoXo

Pretty nice, but I got what I needed.

jacksons983628d ago

@tiqila
They had some nice deals two weeks ago for Vita during their Golden Week sale. I picked up several games Y's, Persona, Muramasa and Chrono cross.

cellur1113628d ago

They weren't that exciting.

Yi-Long3627d ago

Was thinking about picking up SoulCalibur 5, but it's not the complete version (including DLC), so I won't bother.

Other than that, I seem to have most of the stuff I would want.

Soon MS will copy the discounts too.... or do they do that already.

AceBlazer133628d ago

Think they announced it yesterday. Xblg members will now have discounts like PS+ along with the subscription model. So they don't keep their games when their gold runs out.

InMyOpinion3628d ago

I'm a happy PS4 owner now but one thing I experienced MS did better when I gamed on the 360 was their deals.

The deals for the PS4 have been meager so far, to put it nicely.

Blink_443628d ago

Why would you care if they copied Sonys strategy? It's good for consumers.

jacksons983628d ago

@InMyOpinion
I've gotten Resogun, Contrast, Don't Starve, Stick it to the Man, some other crappy game, and Outlast all free on PS4.. Don't think Xbox One owners have anything like that.

nowitzki20043628d ago

@jacksons

Yeah resogun was surprisingly great and addictive. What was free on xone?

InMyOpinion3627d ago

I meant discounts, as in lowered prices for selected games.

Two sports titles with a minimal following outside of the US dropped to a still unreasonable 45 quid... At 20 I may have been tempted just to play a bit of 2 player here and there... no chance at that cost.

Baka-akaB3628d ago

Wow the list of deals blows compared to what we've seen with us flash and spring sales lately .
Especially when i remember the Atlus sales in US .

And on PS4 really ? you can't afford even a meager 10 off on decent retail games ? Nba live wich no one wants and Madden with the new one looming over ?

TRS_Gear3628d ago

Why is Europe always getting these sick deals? What about the folks in the States?

djplonker3628d ago (Edited 3628d ago )

http://blog.us.playstation....

killzone:sf is also $84 on the psn store in europe... na always has better sales and cheaper prices overall

;)

speedforce1313628d ago

We have our share of bad sales too and no we don't have cheaper prices overall. Not for people living here.

To you, it seems like that, because your money is worth more than ours. Everything is cheaper in your eyes.

Baka-akaB3628d ago (Edited 3628d ago )

Still it's not about just "importing" digital cheaper thanks to rate exchange .

There are deal more often , especially from publishers that dont even have an european office .

Today's list is still quite a few stuff that was already free in the instant collection , very old , or not really that cheaper with sequels incoming . BAre a few exceptions of course .

Instant collection stuff is usually better in EU , but the sales ? Nah

Ghost_Nappa3628d ago

$84 What the actual fuck????

Eonjay3628d ago

There are literally hundreds of deals.
