NBA Live 09 Video - Czarisode 5: Rewind That DNA

[goldisheavy]

Can I change the topic of this conversation! I spend 92% of the available hours between Monday to Sunday at work. The remaining 8% is unevenly divided between sleep and NBA Live 2009. Great job on the game.

someone once said to me that the Live was setup for the future while 2K was not. i won't say who that was, but we know that person on the forums. i wasn't so sure but now I am. after playing Live, seeing the innovations, but also the HUUUUGE jump from one year to the next, i believe too. Live truly is going to make the leap and be the better game next year. it needs to round out some edges but it's right there. that next leap is going to start to turn the tables. believe me, i love 2k and have never supported the huge EA juggernaut, but for this sport, Live has made the right choices. it's on the cusp.............

If you're playing online, they don't care if Lebron isolated 40%, because they going to isolate 75% and try to dunk If you're playing in your Dynasty, all these DNA updates don't affect you Rewind and DNA ONLY matter in exhibition games. When I could play exhibition against a friend, dynasty, and online, why in the hell would I play the CPU in exhibition mode just to relive games? This is a good example of how EA uses features to brainwash people into thinking EA is somehow innovative. Roster updates and DNA is cool to have, but they really only matter when you're starting a new dynasty or playing exhibition games. So this REWIND feature is not only lame, but highly overrated. You're basically getting a scripted NBA simulaion but ONLY IN EXHIBITION against the CPU...GAY

Yeah Jerz, I don't think his agenda could be more transparent.

Even when I'm on D and Kobe, TMac or a guard penetrates and I stop him cold from getting in the lane only to see him pass to the wing to a spot up shooter. I say to myself "ok you got me, nice, that was nice." I have no problem with it, and to get joy out of getting beat stopping it and still getting beat only in a different was is SOOO rewarding. EA really did a good job with the way this game is played. I think I may have been the only one to notice this but, having LJames get one dunk the entire game means so much. Great job EA. Only if we could get them to do the same with there football games. Oh sorry... we'll save that for another Jerry Springer Show.

I hope the national championship comes down to Penn State vs. Alabama so we can finally shut Penn St. fans up once and for all!
