I haven't looked at either yet. There are 200+ photos now.
Edit: There is nothing on my life besides the fact that it appears that you can only control the most popular players.
Success Mode looks great but unfourtenetly there appears to only be on game in the first year.

I highly doubt you're limited to just "the most popular players" for My Life, it would go against all the previews we've seen to date. They were doing a quick hands-on and didn't have time to go through all the modes, so the GS writer just quickly jot down what the 2KSports rep was saying.

Terrible write-up in general IMO. And a lot of the "new" screenshots aren't actually new either. :/

In pic 47 he's golfing and says something about bringing his (Steel) golf clubs. Seems like there will be different types of golf clubs determining the level of your stat increases.

I know you can upgrade your Hobbie's equipment; new cd player, better golf clubs, etc. I would just like to know exactly how it is going to effect your stats. I still haven't seen anything that has suddgested that golfing improves your contact or that listening to a cd improves your motavation.

I love how idiots at GameSpot post totally unnecessary responses to that article. "Don't like baseball." "Pass." "Not a fan of baseball." Like anyone is supposed to care. I wonder why they even bother.

Regardless, good find. The content is pretty much what we already know, but a hands-on is always nice, and the more info intake we get, the better, I think.

I know, if you don't like baseball, why post a comment on the article or even READ the article in the first place?

You basically just waste your time with posts like that.
