ESPN 2k5 vs Live 2005

[[[tavis]]]

I was wondering which game you guys thought was better, my friend has both and wants me to get one. I heard that 2k5 doesn't have the cribs feature that the football game had which bums me out and I heard that the dunk copetition is worth the effort needed to do dazzling dunks, just post which one u got an a blurb, thanks

I used to play ESPN on Live all the time, I love it. I've always liked Sega's basketball games better though.

I haven't played this one, but I do know that up until this year, SEGA's basketball game was far superior to EA's. Oh well, EA will just enter into an exclusive contract with the NBA, so soon you won't have to pick.

^ Erg, don't remind me of EA's monopoly. :(

They already tried, NBA shut them down.

ESPN NBA 2k5 > NBA LIVE 2005.

I played though and I gotta say, I love ESPN becaues it feels like real NBA basketball - NBA Live feels like an up and down dunk battle.
