NBA Live by EA Sports has been the only competitor to the NBA video game throne that has been held by the NBA 2K franchise for this entire decade. The knock on NBA Live has been that it’s gameplay just doesn’t quite match up to the authenticity that NBA 2K has consistently produced, but no one has ever questioned NBA Live when it comes to features, music, gimmicks, and quite possibly anything that doesn’t have to do with gameplay.
The only other time that WNBA players have been represented in a video game was on NBA Street Homecourt in 2007 where 6 players were featured. Hopefully NBA Live’s inclusion of the WNBA, continues to help the growth of the league and inspires young women.
