NBA 2K9 First Look (Gamespot)

If the commentary is the same.....

Let's just say I hope that isn't the case. I didn't play as much 2k8 as some of you guys, and I'm definitely not above standing pat for a year. Aside from that, this is what I expected from 2k. Both 2k and EA do the same thing every year. EA puts out a few new features and renames a bunch of old ones long before the game is out. 2k remains steadfast in their stubborn arrogance, refusing to talk about their game in many ways, early info being just one of them.

But again, none of this matters in the off season of bball gaming. We'll see where my 60 bucks is in October.

As much as I love 2k, this is a crappy first look.

Too much he say, crap!

Show us already damn!

Could care less about commentary and I never saw the missing easy layups thing...

So all I got out of this is improved presentation and further immersion into Sig Style. I'm good.

Eh especially after the patch I rarely saw missed layups. Hope that it's not something the media blows out of proportion to the extent that 2k makes every contested layup automatic

It looks like the focus is going to be on presentation this year folks. 2k told me that last year when OS previewed 2k8 and that seems to be coming to fruition. The commentary will be different because of Clark Kellogg (Kenny Smith is now on Sony's game).

That doesnt mean the gameplay wont be improved though.

Jeff Thomas explained that the game was still in development and many bugs still required attention. As a result, 2K is holding off on announcing the new features to dawn this year’s game until a later date.

lets just HOPE that nba live's new intricate and complicated system works as planned.. THey are hypemachinest at its finest imo. we'll buy without a second thought, see that its not up to snuff , complain, and by then ea already has our money. EA is promising big things with their announcement, we need to hold it to them. 2k is not showing their cards right now, knowing that their new features arent completely intergrated. Is EA's system 100% complete and working? this will get interesting

I got a feeling that 2K has something else but they didn't tell us about it because it's still in developement. Give 'em a chance!
