With the added freestyle moves comes added body language, and the players now twitch and swagger with a great deal more emphasis. It definitely gives the game a lot more authenticity, and dedicated NBA Live fans will enjoy the various moves that can be made either when the defence is present or when you have blown right past them! This is achieved through a better-featured freestyle control that lets you change moves while in mid-air as well as perform a variety of spin moves, crossover dribbles and low/high post pivot moves.
