This NBA Live game is just one of those sports games that really fails to impress you with a major improvement in the game's structure or depth. There's a saying in sports gaming--something along the lines of "paying $60 for a roster update". I definitely believe that it applies here. Anyway, onto the review. I give the game's graphics get a 9 because they are very well done:although I would've liked to see a little more detail on the courts (such as end-court logos). Sound scores a 9 because the sound effects are as expected. However,the music is more of an urban mix that fits the game well. Addictiveness scores an 8 because the game is a solid, well-built game that is intresting enough to make you want to play it every now and again. Depth only scores a 5 because beyond the expected modes, there isn't much more to do in this game. Difficulty gets a five due to adjustable difficulty.
