For more on Electronic Arts’ basketball title, and how it’s a return to form for the series, check out PlayStation LifeStyle’s NBA Live 18 review. Here’s a brief snippet of what I had to say about the release:
There’s no denying that there are rough edges, but one thing Electronic Arts has nailed is the feel of playing a pick-up game. It’s a slightly less technical title than its competitor, but it offers up a far better single-player experience. If you’re looking for something fresh, or just want to play as Diana Taurasi, then you can’t go wrong with picking up NBA Live 18.
NBA Live 18 is available now for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
