Wanted to mix it up and try a different nba gaming experience other than NBA 2Kwhatever and this game seemed to be enjoyed for the most part. Looking forward to playing with the kids.

After playing the demo, and enjoying it I decided to go back and give live 18 a chance and boy am I glad I did. The game is not perfect but it's really fun (that's what games are supposed to be at the end of the day). Can't wait to see where Live goes in the future and be on top again

I paid half the price of what I would've paid for 2k and was not disappointed. There is no crazy grind for VC, no park to run around wasting time, just plain simple basketball. It is not as polished as 2k but it's not that big of a difference.

Good value. $24 after GCU. So if you can get it for that value, go for it.

This is a really good game. The graphics leave something to be desired, along with the controls. It feels a little laggy. It lacks behind NBA 2K18. Maybe NBA Live 19 will be more polished, because that’s all that’s really needed.

I have always gotten the 2K games but tried the demo for Live and it wasn’t terrible. Then they knocked $20 off the cost so I gave it a shot. It isn’t a bad game. It’s not as smooth as 2K but it’s vastly improved over the old Live games. In a couple years this could be a serious contender.

This game has great graphics and precise controls with the exception of the jump-shot meter not being very accurate. It is not overly inaccurate, but may cost a close game. Overall, however, it is a good game.

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.
