NBA 2k14 or Live 14?

The competition is back,NBA Live 14 is returning this holiday for the next generation consoles, while NBA 2k14 is releasing for both current generation and next generation. For every sim basketball video-gamer out there, whether a Live fan or a 2k fan this should be a huge deal because competition equals better games. Both games are shaping up to be be fantastic games this year based on trailers we have been seeing. The graphics looks amazing for both games and both companies have been releasing info early.

As we get closer more and more information is going to be released and we are going to be able to determine for ourselves which game is better. As of right now the BounceTek Mechanic that EA displayed in a recent trailer makes dribbling look more natural and more realistic. Also the Kyrie Irving cover reveal trailer shows that EA might sport a similar facial technology to that of the Lebron James 2k trailer. 2k has yet release any info about new game mechanics but there is still plenty of time for them to get their promotion going.

So what do you think about NBA Live and NBA 2K? Which game will be better this year? Should be a very fun and interesting year for simulation basketball. The video below shows a trailer comparison of both games, and even though the live trailer was a CGI trailer, the graphical style will still be the same.

Whether you choose NBA Live or NBA 2k this year as a purchase just make sure you have fun this year playing sim basketball.

Live 14 might be the perfect choice for those on next gen consoles since the game was built around X1 and PS4 hardware.Yes,2K14 is coming to X1/PS4 but the game is based around current gen.

DaGR8JIBRALTAR4690d ago

please...one big difference between the two,2k14 is real footage...live 14 is not.I guarantee you 2k14 will be the top selling basketball game this year.The game has solidified it's status as the best for far too long now.

blackmanone4690d ago

Well considering last year's Live was so piss poor that they cancelled it before release, I don't have high hopes. Meanwhile 2K has blown me away year after year. Not saying it won't be any good, but there's just no way it will match 2K until at least 15-16

iliimaster4690d ago

2k for sure nbalive was horrible for years then they actually had to cancel the game it was so bad.... now all they did was make bouncing the ball more real? and im suppose to forget how great the 2k series has been no thanx

Jagsrock4690d ago

2k has the advantage for sure, they seem to have a real good handle on authenticity and have a greater attention to detail than EA. I don't expect live to top 2k this year but I do think it has a chance to put up a fight. I feel like live is going to be flashier than 2k14 but still won't have better animations, commentary,or controls. Personally i'm happy to see EA step back in the ring it will keep 2k from getting to comfortable, and it's possible that they could bring some good things to the table.

Cable2kx4690d ago

Live looks like a cartoon to me ... Can't wait to play both but my money is on 2k

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing34d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit34d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing34d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9234d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
