Critic Reviews for NBA Live 15
Don't let the improved looks fool you – NBA Live 15's good ideas are all stifled by poor gameplay fundamentals.
After several years in the wilderness, NBA Live is back and it means business. While it's not yet ready to take on its 2K rival, Live is a fun game of basketball that's easy to pick and play.
Improvements on the court are hindered by the lack of compelling modes
NBA Live 15 is a step in the right direction, but that still doesn't make it a good basketball game.
NBA Live 15 makes some key improvements, but this franchise still doesn't feel quite ready for prime time.
A marked improvement over NBA Live 14, but still far from perfect.
While it's a big improvement over last year and a clear step in the right direction, NBA Live 15 forgets that basketball is a team sport. Dunks are overpowered, rendering ball movement and teamwork pointless. Hopefully further refinement can produce a great basketball game in the future, but for 2015, NBA Live's advances are still overshadowed by flawed fundamentals.
