To my current response to the title, the macaroni tastes good.... and its homemade. About NBA Live 05 here's the scoop...
Graphics- Perfectly normal. There is no malfunctions with it and they aren't blowing my mind. Rating: 4/5

Player Skill/ Transportation- The players in this game are phenominal. The skill isn't perfect, but you can adjust it anywhere except career. I created a player who had long blonde hair, but in the end he looked like a blonde Will Ferrell from Semi Pro. The transportation system is easy and simple. 4/5 and 4/5.

Career- Nothing I can say but ok. 3/5.

Gameplay- The gameplay in this game is great. You can run around and dunk it...... WOW! 4/5.

My overall judgement was chosen out of a hat and it was 5. My personal rating is 4/5. This game is worth the money.

This game is basically a regular NBA game like before.The grapics are alittle on the bad side. But i was always a fan of NBA Live so i give this game a 5.

Generally, i didnt have any issues with the game other than the over abundance of block shots in the game. Not only the CPU but on my team as well. When i can get someone that has 15 blocks in a game something needs to be tweaked a bit. I enjoyed the other aspects of the game and the gameplay was solid for the most part. That was my main gripe with the game.

This was the best sports game ever when it was released. The dunks in this game are amazing. The dynasty mode is sensational. The freestyle innovations are great. The dribble styles are neat. The competion modes can vary as much as you want them to. This can be as easy or as hard as you want it to be. You get to choose between five difficulties of playing. You can change the abilities of each player in around twenty areas. There are settings for you to change how hard or easy it is for you and the opponent, seperately, to shoot the ball as well as do just about everything else. You can customize current players or make your own made up player that is good or not so good. Created players can be anywhere from five foot tall and one hundred twenty pounds to seven foot six inches tall and three hundred fifty pounds. You can do almost anything involving NBA basketball in this game.

you can barely hit 100 points in a real game and you can hit 200 easy realistic 1/5 game play 3/5 season\ 5/5 extra feautures 5/5. if you like dunks get this or NBA live 2006, if you like realistic game play get NBA 2k6.
