So for me im not locked in to buying a NBA game this year. I could rent both live 09 and 2k9 and then purchase other games. I will find out once we get a chance to try out the demo.

Well, this post is where I have had a perception issue with some of the comments on this board. I've tried to learn who to filter out, who to respect, and who to look for comments from. Sometiimes Im @ such odds with the things that are complained about. And in all due respect to videobastard, I really only play videogames to get to BASKETBALL season. So it's not so passe to just move on. I don't understand someone without the same kind of passion that I have for the sport, nitpicking the game when it's just filler. Grand Theft Auto, MGS4, Madden, Rockband (well, not rockband...)these are filler for me to get to basketball season. So maybe we need a sim lobby on this board as well...lol. Just for those ocd with ball.

I like everything till the dunking part, eveything looks smooth until he dunked on Big Ben haha. Oh and I hate that they still have those generic shoes. Kills the game.

I don't know if the video is average or not, I do see it is lightyears ahead of LIVE 09 Crayon Colored Clay Player Models, and his crossover looked more in tuned then the whole R Stick for LIVE 09, I speak of the mediocre demo. I still like the Paul Pierce video best. And the Igudola commentary on video 2, also, you see Jamario Moon for the raptors, in the vid, he was missing last year in 2k. 30 days from now, we rock.

I really dont see anything different from this than Last years game. Im really dissapointed with this. One thing I would like to see implemented is guys going to the ground on lay ups and shot attempts. They have it in Live 09 and it gives the game added realism. It was dope to see a guy do a reverse lay up and end up sliding on his back ala Dwayne Wade or a guy shoot a turn around fade away jumper and fall on his but ala Kobe Bryant.

I would like to see more player movement and momentum on shots, Live is going to be a problem this year. I havent purchased it in 4 years, but if 2k doesnt get their act together i might have to go back. Im feeling the demo.

Good for u jtdribble. I hope 2k9 turns out to be a gem. But as much a fan i am of basketball, i get tired of the same gameplay mechanics that are flawed. This is the one year where me personnaly i can take a pass at owning a b ball game if i do not feel the 2k9 demo pans out for me. Gears of war 2 and other games have my interests to were i can get by especially if the gameplay is similiar to 2k8. I continue to play the mlb the show series, so i still have other sports games that i can compete in and have fun with. To each its own.

im just glad that this is the last of the teasers...which means we should be getting actual gameplay soon
