Yeah, tell that to my beloved College Hoops series, #1 selling but not enough! And now it's gone, and without an editor from Finn, I don't see it lasting another season.

If EA outsells 2k this season, due to all it's improvements to the basketball series. Then Take-Two will close the door on the NBA series as well.

Now if you want to defend them go right ahead, but your talking to a guy that has bought every 2ksports game ever made, and every Visual Concepts sports title since Sega Genesis. I've been a long time supporter, but right now they are beyond pissing me off this year.

Even the best company's eventually make a bad product. Not saying 2k9 will be bad. But at the same time, there wasn't enough leap between 2k7 and 2k8 to keep my interest in it a full season. But College Hoops got played to death.

I don't have a College Hoops 2k9 coming in to fill that 2k void this season if NBA 2k9 isn't as fun or different enough for me to play it more.

Then if all I do is make Live and NCAA BB videos, you guys will be ragging on me, when in all honesty I can see their efforts.

Either way, the marketing sucks, and has since Take Two got them from Sega, end of story.
I played the live demo and I like it too but come on man lets not turn this into a live vs 2k tread it happens to much and its annoying.
