I am trying to decide which game I want to buy this year. I have purchased every single NBA Live that came out, aside from 2002. I am used to everything on there, and I am generally happy with it...but every year, it still seems to be something about it that will bug the hell out of me. But whenever I do try to play a different NBA Game, it's hard for me to adapt because I'm so used to playing Live.
So what are the differences between the three games, or between which ever ones you have played? I was somewhat leaning toward NBA 07 The Life, because of Kobe bein on it and because of the whole "Life" part of it...but I don't know if the gameplay itself is as good. I don't know much of anything about 2K7, but I saw that it has got some good reviews.
Basically...I'm stuck right now. I might even end up goin to Wal Mart at 2:30 A.M. tonight to buy one of them, who knows.

Theres really no other way to go but to buy NBA 2K7.
Live 07 is just horrible, I haven't seen a good review for it yet. Sonys NBA series has really never been good, but its better than Live this year apparently, but not as good as 2k7.
-
NBA 2k7 is almost perfect.
NBA LIVE 07 sucks.
-
2k7 is crazy. Laker fans will love it because Kobe is off tha chain on this. One of the best games this year
-
Yeah, live wasn't good this year, I rented it instead of buying it, its fun for a little bit because it does look good, theres some new controls in it; you can just use the right thumbstick for all kinds of shit, and superstar mode adds a little strategy, they got all the shit they missed last year, like the dunk contests and franchise, but the gameplay is just so awkward and glitchy all the time. So far i've passed through a defenders chest, dunked clean through the backboard, and did some crazy magnetic float to the hoop from just inside the 3 slammin that shit. I say try 2k7 this year, its getting good reviews, you'll be sick of all the shit in Live after a while.
-
yea i would say go with NBA 2k7, live is weak this year, and nba07 is nice but 2k7 is nicer
-
Can somebody please tell me how the NBA 2K7 Draft import works?
I know that College Hoops 2K7 isn't out for a month and a half...but I've heard people say that you can import from 2K6. For those who did it with NBA 2K6, how accurate was it, and how exactly did it work?

I'm not gonna lie...I'm buyin 07 The Life because my nigga KB is on the cover.

NBA2K7 is the right choice and its not even close. To all Kobe fans I know its cool that he is on the cover of The Life but it is a terrible game. And NBA Live is as bad as any basketball game I have ever played also. I have chose the NBA2K series for the last 6 years and could never imagine playing another basketball game.
-
i think nba the ilfe is the way to go, the story mode from the life last year was pretty tight and there are some cool minigames this year too
easily the best of the 07 NBA games
-
For NBA 2K7, do they have the rosters updated online frequently? Also, can you modify the CPU's rosters during a dynasty/season?

They do roster updates (2ksports is better wit hthe updates than EA). I only think you can only control 8 teams in dynasty mode.

I bought NBA 2K7 today....I should have asked for a discount since the only had the one left had to come with the display case, but whatever...
I am gettin used to it, and startin to like it some after my 2nd game. I haven't even owned a basketball game that wasn't NBA Live since NBA Showtime back in 99, so it's weird playing a different game. I think I might have ended up likin Live 07 anyway, and I didn't like 06 much at all when I first had it. But it's whatev.....the main reason I leaned towards 2K7 is because you can import rookies, and NCAA comes out next month. March Madness isn't even droppin until February!!

Great choice! I know its weird playing a new game when you are used to the Nba Live series but stick with it cause you definitely made the right choice. Wait till you get into your franchise and you feel comfortable playing, it is so much fun. There are so many reasons why the 2k series is the best BBall game, the gameplay and graphics are great. Also the player ratings our perfect. They have Kobe as the best rated player, Brand is around the top 5 and Jermaine is around 9 or 10. The ratings are perfect.

I feel you...personally, some of the ratings are kind of suspect though. Wade, Kobe, and Lebron are all a 98...I might give Lebron and Wade 97 or 96. And they have Kwame as being a damn 72...he wasn't THAT sorry and it's obvious he's gettin better, but they made a grip of rookies a LOT better than him. But yeah...it's startin to get fun. I still keep doin dumb shit though....like tryin to crossover with the R stick, when it is shoot on here.

No, that's called marketing.

WAAAAAAAAAIT A MINUTE...........................................
WTF is this about.........you have to import the rookie class in before the season starts???? I had planned on waiting til NCAA came out, and then importing at the end of the season like I do on Madden 2007. Now, it's no fuck'n point in me doin a season if it's gonna give these fake ass rookies this year. I am surprised that it gives real ace n shit, but wtf???
-
Have you simmed a season a see when it asks you to import.
-
I didn't try it yet. It asked me to import before the season even started, so since I didn't have a file to upload, it automatically put a grip of fake dudes there. I think it happened when I had the "Import roster" option turned on..and I guess I just skipped the screen or somethin when it came up askin to import. So I was thinkin about simmin a season to see, but I donno how long that will take...but either way, this year will have some fake rookies.
-
It might be because you have to scout the rookies over the course of the season, so it could A. have just needed to put some rookies in there for the sake of putting them there, and will ask you to import again before the draft or B. You'll just have to wait until NCAA comes out to start a NBA franchise.
-
To tell you the truth i've tried NBA2K7 for PS2 and i'm a little bit disappointed. I mean gameplay and options are great, and it's an improvement over the very good NK6, but the graphic is basically the same. I've heard the XBOX 360 version is totally different, that's probably the real deal (but i don't have a 360 so i can't try it). Anyway i've tried NBA LIVE too, and 2K7 is def better. No fucking doubt.

Wade, Kobe, and Lebron are all a 98...
That's the way the league wants it... :-X

Man....why the hell is College Hoops 2K7 not comin for PS2 til fuckin December 11th, but it's already out for XBox and 360? That's hella bullshit...I waited til yesterday to start a new season so I can draft rookies in, and every store told me that bullshit.

yeah...but even though they may have all the same rating, Kobe is by far the illest player on the game (deservingly so).
