Re: NBA Live '09 Preview - Community Day Impressions

Could you tell the superstars from stars,from the average and lower tier nba players, and vice versa.....as far as talent/moves/ability..etc???
last year, almost everyone, except a hand full of players had the were the same..

Re: NBA Live '09 Preview - Community Day Impressions

Yo! Broham! Thanks for the write up, very informative.

No draft interaction with March Madness sucks, this pissing me off for the 3rd year in a row.

And the lack of 3 man commentary or sideline reporting is trash too.

Overall nice read, I look forward to 09.

Now bring the screenshots and videos from the event.

Player momentum was improved. This was slightly overdone with the ball handling, as at times you felt locked in to a move. Hopefully this gets addressed prior to release. I hope they address this the most, as the defender can lock you into a backcourt violation due to animation, something that played NBA 2k8.

This is what i was worried about.... and i hope to God that it isn't in the same line as 2K5 where that canned crap ruined the game for you,


BTW, very nice write up Pared. Can't say im surprised though... gotta love the guys here on OS who love bball.


Im still excited about the game turning the tides so to speak but some things concern me that I hope they fix, and the rebounding is something that has plagued this game for eons.

Im guessing they fixed that ball hitting the floor to a stand still since you didnt mention it.

Re: NBA Live '09 Preview - Community Day Impressions

Goodness... I need to go over my writing again (and quit writing so late at night as well).

Some of my errors were ridiculous. My apologies for that fellas.

As for most of the concerns....

I honestly think most of them can be be addressed in some way shape or form prior to release. At the very least, sliders might help limit some of the issues that aren't addressed.

The key thing I want to point out was the game was just fun.Guys at the community day openly revealed how they hadn't enjoyed a Live game in years and were having a blast with this buggy, unfinished build of the game so far. I think that is saying something HUGE about this title.

The title is certainly worth a look this year as the game wasn't overly complicated but didn't feel like it sacrifice realism/was arcade influenced. I honestly think they're headed on the right path and certainly closing the gap in the basketball video game genre.

In fact, I'm going to add that to the end of my original posts...

Dont buy sports games until they release 2 patches for the game then and only then will you receive a complete game.

Re: NBA Live '09 Preview - Community Day Impressions

Thanks Pared. This is definently not a buy for me now that you confirmed that you cant play other teams games or even control their starting lineups. In 2k8 you can do that in a roundabout way. Anyway, it sounds good but they are about a year away from me buying their game.
