NBA LIVE 18 Standard Edition - PlayStation 4

This was the only way I could send pics to Best Buy about my order. I purchased this game for my 10 year old nephew's birthday and I was quite embarrassed when my sister sent me these pictures. It looks like someone may have tried to open it and it was damaged. The game is working fine but again this was a birthday present and was not at all presentable. I purchased a lot of family gifts from Best Buy and this is the first issue I have had regarding this matter.

This game is playable and fun. Finally NBA live has returned swinging. The one mode is what makes this game shine with the challenges and crates to open. It seems like even if u lose with random players online or win with friends that the game is fun. The animations are better than in past time NBA live games and the graphics have improved. I will say that it's not a 5 because still some problems exist in live like the collisions between players in air and how some animations are still a bit clumsy and not fluid. Also some player models and face scans are trash and do the NBA players no justice like Kwahi Leonard. I don't even know who they were trying to make but it wasn't kwahi at all. Some random black guy. Lol. The speed of the game is a little slower and the hairstyles are still limited and not so great. Body types could be better and when u import a face scan the options are not enough to help with some issues with blemishes and realism. The overall game is great though and for the price I can't say it isn't worth it if u bought it when price was lowered during the preorder time frame. I support live so that they can start competing and making great basketball games again.

Picked this up for cheap last year on Xbox One to see if EA had come any closer to catching the juggernaut that is NBA2K. Imagine my surprise (shock even!) when I found that this game was even more fun to play than 2K. Now dont get me wrong, I didn't say that Live was BETTER than 2K, but it is more fun to pick up and play. When I bought my son a PS4 I got him both Live and 2K so he could decide which one he preferred without his old man's bias. He plays Live every weekend, while 2K collects dust. He thinks 2K looks better, but for a young child like him the ease of gameplay and less daunting (i.e., less deep) career and player creation in Live makes it infinitely easier for him to get engaged. So much so that I had to get him Live 19 later, and Live 20 when it drops. Highly recommended for anyone interested in a quick pick up and play style ball game.

playing a basketball game. i honestly did not expect to sit down and play for 6 hours (whoa, time goes by when you're having fun) i was honestly just going to pick this game up... play a few ranked matches... and throw it aside... boy, was i wrong. playing 5 on 5 online is a BLAST . i did a facial scan... which made it even more fun . it reminded me of being out on an actual court playing a pick up game of basketball. the facial scan is done really well, and adds something very special to the game ranked matches are simple... and straight to the point. just like on madden. i love the gameplay. i had been buying nba 2k for the last few years... and to say it's a bad game... would be a lie. but to say it's a good game... would also be a lie NBA Live is far from perfect... but it's the most fun I've had with a basketball game in years. (maybe since the 90s)

Nice game..enjoy playing it. Easy to use..fun to play

I have both games and I’m not bias like most. Live doesn’t come with the hoopla and production as 2K but visually and gameplay wise it may be a half a step better. Not sure if it will last as far as replay value though. Different game, different modes, but still basketball

This is a really good basketball game with great new features. You can play a regular season or you can choose to play a street version. You'll definitely enjoy it.

I enjoy how difficult the game is at times. It can be a little over the top at the highest difficulty though. Making full court shots has happened for the computer more than once on buzzer beaters. Gameplay is a little robotic and not free form. Sometimes the player is trying to play defense with his back to the opposing player. Makes it hard to guard someone when your team can't even turn around. The analog stick makes them move sluggish sometimes and becomes frustrating. Fun game though if you can stand that.
