Video Game Reviews of NBA Live 2004
Customer Review: Create a team
Summary: 4 Stars
Hey, wus up ya'll. I wanted to write to easports on this one, but I guess this will have to do. I was wondering if you could send it to them for me. Anyway I love this game, but there's only one flaw. I'm a basketball player, and when I played madden I noticed that you can create a team, design jersy's, colors, stadiums and everything. I would like to do this on a b-ball game more than I would on a football game. I wanted to ask EAsports to put a create a team option on nba live 2005 for a brotha. With color options for the uni's & all that stuff. Oh yeah, what ever happened to the three point contest? I miss that stuff man. Don't even get me started on a Dunk contest baby. I'm a guy with some new ideas for this game, I mean, I like what ya'll are doin' with the 100+ shoe selection and the 40 differen't headbands and all that stuff, but this is another idea.Could ya please just think about? Aight I'm out.
One of your #1 fans West Alston.
Customer Review: PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought this game last week and there is a serious virus attached to CD 2 that comes out when loading! The virus causes the game to lock up your system-ctrl-alt-del and task manager do not work during the lock up. I unplugged the system and tried to reboot and get a blank black screen now. My ststem will not load up in safe mose or any of the other default boot modes. I scanned the disk in another computer I have access to and found there is a virus detected on disk 2. The EA tech support board reflects this problem as well if you don't believe me. This game just ruined a brand new system-do not buy this thing whatever you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1Customer Review: devotion to mediocrity
Summary: 3 Stars
Ea sports has done it again. they've produced another overhyped, overrated, and overbought game. not that i'm an easports hater....i buy this game every year; and am more disspointed every year. easports introduces some spectacular new features each year, while taking away several that it had last year or the year before. the end resut it another mediocre game.on the good side, this year is probably the best nba live i have ever seen. the freestyle is much improved, for once, the players actually shoot halfway realalistic percentages, and the 10 man thingy is incredible. there are struggles for loose balls, incredible graphics and a much improved franchise mode.
but the franchise mode...as good as it is, that's where the flaws start. the computer led teams never have the money to resign thier superstar players. this means that tim duncan and every other good free agent will, after a year or two, will not be resigned by thier team, or signed by any other team, and will spend the rest of thier career as a free agent. do you want a franchise where all the good players never get on a team (unless you sign them, making your team an incredible powerhouse every year...which you CAN do). you'd think easports would make a franchise mode where the GOOD players get on the teams.
also, the computer pretty much lets you destroy it for the first 3 quarters, only to put together an amazing comeback victory (or near victory) in the fourth...EVERY time. seriously. i'm talking 20 point leads gone (frequently). this happens EVERY time...and not just to me.
here are the other flaws: it is nearly impossible to go up for a shot and then change to a pass, it sometimes forgets to sub the guys you told it to, people "wrestle" for the ball WAY too often, the game has a little place to see how much your players improved in trining camp, and it is ALWAYS "0", crossovers don't get you to change direction, and are generally a bad idea to do, trading players is very akward (it's hard to see how good the other player is, how much he's improving, how much time is left on his contract, etc.).
the good: they are actually (kind of) trying this year. having two shoot buttons is awsome. trading draft picks is great, gameplay is great for the mostpart, almost everything is adjustible (gamespeed, fatigue effect, ect.)
in the end, this game comes close to being REALLY good...and with a few minutes of extra work, they could have done it. but that's the amazing thing...now that the end is clearly in sight, now that they are actually trying to be good, they stop just short of it. and nothing other than some sort of secret pledge to mediocrity could have kept them from doing so.
