+Sleez Ick True. Some of the faces look perfect on NBA LIVE, while some look better on NBA 2K16. It's really a mixed bag. A lot of the faces are ws. ay off on some of these guy
Live looked better to me, more depth, natural skin tones... and honestly that Live Steph looked better than the 2k Steph... just saying.. only my opinion though
+Tristan McCray I have a separate video comparing it to real life pictures, it's hard to get updated real life pics for all players so I picked certain guys.
+Xkrules HAHAH dude most of lives players look more realistic. The fact is 2k put more work into gameplay then the look of the players etc. im a 2k player but i still think live players look better,
+SAMMYY its a mixed bag, some players look perfect on live, while others look better on 2k. When live does a great facescan, they do a GREAT FACESCAN, but when they fuck up the players either look drunk, hella old, or looked like they popped a molly
The actual skin textures + the normals/spec maps in 2K are clearly more higher res through out the video (Snell's face at 0:47 looks insanely detailed, but 2K eyebrows look terrible), and while Live has nice textures too, you can tell they've used compression on them to get them to a certain size because they look pretty blurry for a next gen game. They're also way more "shiny" than they needed to be (which might be the detail everyone in the comments are talking about), and it also looks like they're using just one "sweat" map for every player. The real tell I think is when you look at the Chandler Parsons comparison (4:30). All that detail on the Live face isn't actually the face texture, it's the spec map (google it). You're not supposed to be able to see the spec map like that, it's supposed to only be seen at certain angles/lighting conditions, even if he is sweating. It's a lighting trick, and I think EA just made it super visible because that actual face textures aren't all that detailed. Besides that, I think they're both hit & miss with the player faces. Westbrook looks almost terrible in 2K (6:56), while Live seemingly just added a random player face to Mudiay (4:58).
Every time people say live is better I point out Tim Duncan. Live made him look like a Fucked Up potato. Live is horrible. They sold 8000 copies in the first month. They need to stop. 2k is now destroying live and will be forever. Live might as well just stop putting out games. If they sell 8000 in the first month this year imagine next year. EA should stick to madden and FIFA because they suck at making basketball games. R.I.P NBA LIVE
I think 2k16 has more aesthetically pleasing faces and more consistently good faces (some of the Live 16 faces were really bad). But most of the Live 16 faces look more human. Marcus Smart's face is a good example. And the Dragic face is FANTASTIC on Live 16, actually looks real.
Ea won w/ Kelly Olynyk,Paul Pierce,Amare Stoudemire,Jeremy Lin,Gordon Hayward,Aaron Afflalo,Carmelo Anthony,Kenneth Faried,Jordan Hill,Ersan Ilyasova,Russel Westbrook,and Steph Curry?? (I dont know, the eyes,mouth,teeth,and head shape looks better in live)
NBA 2K has more realistic face of the players compared to NBA Live but lacks of skin texture, saturation and sharpness on the skin. Still 2K has the advantage
NBA LIVE 16 vs. NBA 2K16 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 vs. Spider-Man 3 Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice vs. Captain America: Civil War Suicide Squad vs. Guardians Of The Galaxy Which of these ones are better?
faces look fine in lives besides rookie idk why they couldn't get them scanned. the one thing you can also give live is skin tones and hair textures looks slightly better on some players like drummond or curry, which to me live did him just has good as 2k did
I think both games have some dodgy models but 2k16's dodgy models are only slightly messed up, Live's you can't even tell who the person's supposed to be
I really wish they came out with a sports game for PC. The only reason I even own a PS4 is for Madden and NBA. If they put out these games on PC's we could just play them with a controller anyways but they could do so much more. The graphics cards and processors in modern day PC's take shits bigger than what's in a console. Imagine the life like graphics at 144 fps with unlimited variables, shadows, and sequences that could be programmed into a computer football game. You would never see the same tackle twice.
I really have no idea why anybody hasn't said it yet but....its 50/50, or close to it. Half the faces look the most identical on live, and half look the closest on 2k.
Live has really crisp detailed faces...like Live did a good job with Rose. But 2K has smoother blended textures and the gameplay is much better than live.
i was considering this for the cheaper price, and change things up from 2K, but D'Angelo Russell is so bad, they didnt even try. The cutaways during free throws, clear glitches in between plays. Same glitch across Madden, I can't be the only one.
A lot of Lives faces look good at one angle then bad at another....that's what gives 2k the clear advantage...the players look great the majority of the time even if they change expressions....
to me, Live looks more photorealistic, 2K a bit cartoony in comparison. but 2K has smoother animations and gameplay, EA Sports has an issue with choppy animations and cutaways
In 2K the players look more how they actually do in real life. Idk wtf Live is doing over there. They got the artists looking at pictures of the players and trying to sculpt
0:16
WHAT THE HELL. IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE JAHILL OKAFOR!?
That's what I said
It's Carl Landry
+Morn Wood No it isn't
Everybody on Live looked like they popped a molly.
hahahah!
lmaooooo
With their red eyes
hell yeah. but shit, this video just made me realize how 2k eyes look. the look demonic as hell. pitch black.
hell yeah. but shit, this video just made me realize how 2k eyes look. the look demonic as hell. pitch black.
Sometimes 2k wins sometimes live wins.
+Sleez Ick True. Some of the faces look perfect on NBA LIVE, while some look better on NBA 2K16. It's really a mixed bag. A lot of the faces are ws. ay off on some of these guy
Hell yea. They either look drunk or hella old
they look high to
Sleez Ick right that's what I was seeing
Yall should watch it now. Ea looks terrible 2k won 79% of the faces
Live looked better to me, more depth, natural skin tones... and honestly that Live Steph looked better than the 2k Steph... just saying.. only my opinion though
I applaud u for standing by ur opinion but I respectfully disagree... but ayy whatever floats ur boat
+imir jones As long as you come with respect, I can respect your opinion. lol take it easy bro
+3kidsnthedog you too bro
+3kidsnthedog THIS IS WHAT CONVOS IN LIFE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE I LOVE YOU GUYS GOD BLESS.
+Victor Cruz This might have been the nicest conversation on TH-cam in history.
Some look better in Live 16 and some look better in 2k16 honestly...
Live either gets it spot on or way off lmao. but also TBH alot of the 2k ones look cartoony asf
Would you guys like to see a body comparison because of the new body scan technology used in 2K16? Let me know.
yes
yes
yep
if you show the real photo of the player too that will be amazing
To much sweat 💦 2k16 wins
EA just needs to bring back street smh.
yes. yes. yes
NBA street vol 2 was fucking lit.
Dwayne Wade looks insanely real on NBA live.
nba live just threw a random nigga off the street in there for jahlil okafor
LOL LOOK AT JIMMY BUTLERS HAIR ON NBA LIVE LOLOLOL
TRUEEE LMAO WTF
CHRIS T ik this shit old asf but this shit got me dying 😂😂😂

Here is NBA 2K16 vs NBA LIVE 16 Face Comparison, would appreciate if you guys drop a like, took me a while to make. Song link is in the description.
once again live putting their players on them drugs...
+Trevor Murphy lol
+Trevor Murphy lol
+Trevor Murphy well they are some players that looks better in Live than 2k. Look at Pau Gasol, Lebron James and DeMarcus Cousins.
nba 2K16 looks way better
NBA live's player look so high
ikr those eyes
ikr
and their lips are crusty
except jr smith, his was spot on
Generally 2k did better as they were more consistent. However props to Live making Lin's face pre on point 2:49
lebron on nba live is actually more accurate than the 2k16
4:00 my god even though I hate live Aaron Gordan looks real
NBA Live has a better Paul Pierce, Joe Johnson, and Kenneth Faried. That's it. The rest look horrible on Live.
Better curry as well he looks so real
Dan The man Not a better Curry.. 2k face scanned Curry and it looks exactly like he does currently in real life.
+jdollar1 Lin .. . don't forget
Joseph Chang Also no.
I think Kobe looks in Live better than in 2k
5:13 I didn't know that Ben Carson plays for the Pacers.
I still think LeBron's face looks way off in 2K.
3:37 lol
0:34 LOL
3:54 L.O.L!!!
0:17 okay, R.I.P Live
for the comparison to be better should've put the real life picture somewhere on the screen
+Tristan McCray I have a separate video comparing it to real life pictures, it's hard to get updated real life pics for all players so I picked certain guys.
+GamingWithOva oh ok
3:55 What did EA made to D'Angelo Russell???
Is it me or did Live ruin all of the rookies?
+Xkrules HAHAH dude most of lives players look more realistic. The fact is 2k put more work into gameplay then the look of the players etc. im a 2k player but i still think live players look better,
+SAMMYY its a mixed bag, some players look perfect on live, while others look better on 2k. When live does a great facescan, they do a GREAT FACESCAN, but when they fuck up the players either look drunk, hella old, or looked like they popped a molly
+Young_ Native118 (Apache Mayan) Winslow looks alright
live sucks
+Swaggy Rolla (Smitty) are you out of mind, did you see how bad are both games
Bruh, what console u usin for 2k16? Try the ps4,xbox, and pc instead of the ps3 and xbox 360
what's up with D'Angelo Russel in live?? lol
I have live, and I can tell u for a fact that's not how Russel looks in it
I know, I do too, but the D'Angelo in this vid is mental
+Warriors Fan 😂😂😂😂

Also, look at fucking Jahlil Okafor, porzongis, this is fucked up
+Execution Execution and i don't like you
+ADG Man Cave I don't know much about video game sales but I do know you don't make profit with how little games they've sold.
+GamePlayWin your stupid
How about 18
I think 2k16 has more aesthetically pleasing faces and more consistently good faces (some of the Live 16 faces were really bad). But most of the Live 16 faces look more human. Marcus Smart's face is a good example. And the Dragic face is FANTASTIC on Live 16, actually looks real.
2k16 Chris bosh is the most realistic 2k or live face I've ever seen
+Nicholas Manoukian wow ur right
PaperlessPaper i know right? he always looked realistic in the 2k series for some reason
Nicholas Manoukian Lol, it almost looks like a picture of him
i know right
which minute? :D
Question, why does their eyes look reddish on live? Did EA hurt them and made them cry before the face scans?
LOL MY BOY JIMMY BUTLER ON LIVE LOOKS LIKE MR. POTATO HEAD LOLOLOLOLOL
IM LAUGHING LIKE THE GUY ON THE ROASTING VIDEO HAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOLOLOLM
That jahlil okafor face on nba live mobil
2ks Brooke Lopez looks like buzz lightyear
2:47 Michael - Kidd Eyes was moving on NBA Live 😮😮😮
Bro does that even look like Russel on the Lakers in Live?
not at all
That's wat I was thinkin...gotta be a different guy
truly look like some old legend, from the 50s
0:32 why mirotic dont have a beard in live?
Lol no comparison 2k is better for at least 3/4s of them all
Someone has been smoking a little too much?
Someone is getting salty?
Chris Bosh on 2K16 look so much realer than Live 16 he looked all fuck up on that
Why don't we just tell EA to make the graphic, and 2k make the gameplay... I think it would be a dopest basketball game ever make!
+Lan Tran 2k beats them on both gameplay and graphics
Lan Tran I agree with you right there
Ea won w/ Kelly Olynyk,Paul Pierce,Amare Stoudemire,Jeremy Lin,Gordon Hayward,Aaron Afflalo,Carmelo Anthony,Kenneth Faried,Jordan Hill,Ersan Ilyasova,Russel Westbrook,and Steph Curry?? (I dont know, the eyes,mouth,teeth,and head shape looks better in live)
NBA 2K16 for da win!!!!!!
Why is all the nba live faces bumpy? It reminds me of the before picture for proactive
Live looks a ton better besides the rookies
Live looks so bad
Hell nah
They gave okafor a bald head lmao
They fd up lebron in live
NBA 2K has more realistic face of the players compared to NBA Live but lacks of skin texture, saturation and sharpness on the skin. Still 2K has the advantage
NBA LIVE KILLED 2K IN GRAPHICS THIS YEAR
- nobody ever
what's the exact name for this instrumental? can't find it
PS3 2k FAces are better than ps4 nba live faces....lol
W
NM13 L
Damn bruh Dennis Schröder looks so fucken real on live.
i think live is better
L
NBA LIVE 16 vs. NBA 2K16
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 vs. Spider-Man 3
Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice vs. Captain America: Civil War
Suicide Squad vs. Guardians Of The Galaxy
Which of these ones are better?
Jamal crawford looked messed up in both games
Really...every year
if you think live graphics are better you either have a mental health condition or ridiculously poor eyesight...
either way i feel sorry for you.
LML the truth has been spoken
+The Trilluminati your just so biased honestly
1:07
"Hi, I'm 2K Shumpert and I have Direct TV."
"Hi, I'm Live '16 Shumpert, and I have cable."
7;50 Gortat!!!!😂😂😂😂
It'd be cool if EA Games and 2K Sports partnered up for the next NBA game! both have good qualities
2K Chris Bosh, Dieng and Live Amare look perfect
Drose looks Mexican on live
bro please give me a link with these photos in video pls
Some of the skin tones used on Live make the players look orange or goldish-brown which automatically makes me like the 2k one better
that at the beginning of the song??
First nba live player look like high and 2k16 they do the damn thang this year thank you u spike lee
2k needs the artist who did the Eyes and hair for Live and they would be almost perfect in most cases
0:11 NBA Live 16 Nerlens Noel looks like JJ from Good Times!
Nba live lebron looks like Kanye
Live's Paul Pierce is so good. Live's graphics though aren't consistent. Some players look really detailed and awesome while others are weird
2:50 Who did this to Lin's ears in 2k16 ? 😦
2k's player faces are small as fuck and the eyes are big as fuck but if you combined both you'd get the perfect player
Gerald green😂 Pau Gasol😂 Gobert😂 Seth Curry😂 Porzingis 😂 D Lo😂
what's the name of the second beat tho
Which Wade do you guys think look better?
Live
Live makes it more realistic somehow
Lol same thing i was wondering hard decision tbh
When Ea starting dropping teasers on nba live people were saying 2k might be screwed for once....but it's pretty obvious who won this one
faces look fine in lives besides rookie idk why they couldn't get them scanned. the one thing you can also give live is skin tones and hair textures looks slightly better on some players like drummond or curry, which to me live did him just has good as 2k did
Why tf at 1:03 does kyrie have a lazy eye?
The complexions and skin textures make the players on live look more realistic
whats the song that starts around 5
At 2:19 You can see Dwight Howard in the back H-TOWN
0:58 Nba Live with the accuracy. Jr Smith!
I think both games have some dodgy models but 2k16's dodgy models are only slightly messed up, Live's you can't even tell who the person's supposed to be
morale of the story join the clippers if you want live to show you some love
I really wish they came out with a sports game for PC. The only reason I even own a PS4 is for Madden and NBA.

Imagine the life like graphics at 144 fps with unlimited variables, shadows, and sequences that could be programmed into a computer football game. You would never see the same tackle twice.
And live does face scans?
Hasbro yeah they do
Name of the first song?
I really have no idea why anybody hasn't said it yet but....its 50/50, or close to it. Half the faces look the most identical on live, and half look the closest on 2k.
Live has really crisp detailed faces...like Live did a good job with Rose. But 2K has smoother blended textures and the gameplay is much better than live.
i was considering this for the cheaper price, and change things up from 2K, but D'Angelo Russell is so bad, they didnt even try. The cutaways during free throws, clear glitches in between plays. Same glitch across Madden, I can't be the only one.
The reason people like 2k is that the gameplay in 2k is a lot more fun
it's like comparing the cameras of iphone 6 and galaxy s6, it'shard to tell which one is better
iPhone duh
whats the name of that beat
that's suppose to be Gerald green... wow
why is it all the nba live pics look like they high?
what does First Outer Inner Last mean?
isn't that a way to expand an equation in quadratics?
why do people always comment it..
A lot of Lives faces look good at one angle then bad at another....that's what gives 2k the clear advantage...the players look great the majority of the time even if they change expressions....
I'm in the middle on Kobe, Both are pretty good, Live wins with Wade, Deng, Cauley Stien, Melo and Joe Johnson, The rest clearly go to 2K...
to me, Live looks more photorealistic, 2K a bit cartoony in comparison.
but 2K has smoother animations and gameplay, EA Sports has an issue with choppy animations and cutaways
hit and miss both have moments that outshine eacother BUT for next gen anything less than 100% from both companies is unacceptable
first off why do the nba live players eyes look tinted red second why does Jahlil look like Ray Allen mixed with the coach from 2k15 mc
Wtf was live's d'angelo Russell WHO THE FUCK IS THATT😂
6:23 Holy shit, look at Live Timmy's eyes!
In 2K the players look more how they actually do in real life. Idk wtf Live is doing over there. They got the artists looking at pictures of the players and trying to sculpt
3:37 WTF? Porzingis? Also, in live, Jahlil Okafor has no fucking hair....
