New Improvements For NBA Live 07
Check out these cool new additions to NBA Live 07 (coming out for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PSP) as EA goes back to the drawing board to provide you guys with a better build of the game. Missing features from NBA Live 06, Dynasty Mode, All-Star Weekend, and a salary cap have now been included in NBA Live 07. The newest feature is the Total Freestyle control, which is the most advanced version of ESPN Integration yet.
In the Total Freestyle control feature, players now have the ability to have multiple skill packages, create a new tiered superstar system for improved player differentiation, and – best of all – the ability to toggle through the different Freestyle Superstar categories on the fly. A ton of moves have also been added, making the control more organic by moving them to the R-Analog stick. A new HUD system in the corner of the screen has been created that will show the player’s FSS ability and level. A quick button press will toggle through the different FSS types and this will be displayed in the HUD.
What we love though, is the ability to have multiple superstar abilities which, at a quick button press, will enable you to change your character’s ability between high flyers, play makers, scorers, shooters, and defenders. Also, there are three levels of Superstars to differentiate between the players in the league, so this means that no two players are alike:
- Level 1 Superstars: players who are up-and-coming and who may occasionally get a highlight on Sports Center.
- Level 2 Superstars: potential All-Stars and frequently put up some big highlight moments every game.
- Level 3 Superstars: players that people pay the big money to see.
EA also stated that the new system will allow you to play better basketball, especially with the inside-out game as it rewards good ball movement. They still have a few weeks to iron out all the details and issues though, as NBA Live 07 is slated to be released in time for holiday season.
