This is like saying xbox 1 is better than ps4 because it's 100 dollars more. I'd waight to see what they offer. 2k's focus was obviously the graphics, while the gameplay probably stays the same. Live could still end up more entertaining.

Not only will 2K14 look a lot better it will offer a lot more features it will easily end up with a much higher final metascore.  Also the last time Live was the most entertaining basketball game was before 2K made its lauch on the Dreamcast.

If you install the game off the disc which is now manditor it will take up more HDD space then directly downloading it online.  But I doubt that many people will download it unless they have very fast cable internet or a fiber based provider like verzion fios or google fiber.

Going off track history, I would give the nod to 2k14. but my point is I wouldnt judge a game by it's gigs. what if live was 43 gigs and 2k was 9? what would your thought process be then?

EEverything this guy says is truth. Never liked the highly offensive minded game of Live. 

Even on the PS1 Live wasn't always the best game NBA ShootOut started out as a much better franchise even NFL GameDay was better then Madden for a while.

Correct me if I'm wrong, bug are these download sizes smaller than the mandatory install sizes? That seems a little odd
Just another reason to go digital though. Save some hard drive space

Download is compressed... install not.

You won't save space lol... it is the same game in Xbone... if you install the retail version from a friend and buy it digital you don't need to download the game because you already have it installed.
