Sorry Live is killing them on graphics man, I said it from the beginning even when Live 06 played average and Live 07 play like a turd in dirty water. They still were the king of graphics. Lighting and things like that have been better on 2k no doubt, but the player models in Live kill 2k's. Facial, skin textures, etc.
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.

LOL, I donīt know what demo you played, but the LIve game wasnīt a revolution in any way. Floaty and odd animation, a cartoon feel over the game.
Shots looked bad and crazy warp.
And gfx, that game has goofy looking charachters, not bad, but a more cartoony style and lankiness. I think EA made them cartoony to emphazise difference of the players.
2ks player models , as usual, look better.
"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. "
Wow , LIVE is so behind itīs not even funny, and you do realize that NBA2k sold more than the subpar LIVE last year in NA?
To all Live fans: Keep on saying your stubborn mantra : "NBA Live will rule this year..." And realize they wonīt this year , just as last year and the year before that....
