NBA 2K9 Video: Association Part 2

Best part to me was the Beastie Boys song. Hehe, sorry been a fan since the mid 80's.

There was a "Home" option in the main menu section

The new looks is pretty sick but all the off season stuff are identical to last year's game .

As good as the Beastie Boys are, when I heard "Sofa King" I nearly shat myself.

Yeah, they had the lottery in real-time for 2K8 too.

Liked:
- Loved that free agents will now say they want to test the free agent market. I hope there's some parameters behind that and it's not just random. I'm not sure why Ryan Hollins, of all people, would want to test free agency but hopefully there's an actual reason behind the decision in the AI.

- You can fire people now as an option. Yay. I would have liked to have seen the video fire Larry Brown and then see if he's available to be hired by another team. I really hope that the firings done by the CPU mid-season and available to do in the off-season don't make those coaches unable to be hired.

- It's shiny menu time.

- Bird rights! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

Disliked:
- I hit pause to see the headlines at the end. Apparently the Blazers signed Stephon Marbury to a 3 year, 18 million dollar deal. Yeah. Right. That. Would. Ever. Happen. The AI's ability to judge what players they need in free agency looks to be as haphazard as it has been in previous years. Blah.

- In free agency signing, it didn't tell you how much over/under the cap you are. Sure, you can click through to another area for that information but why they couldn't fit it into the negotiation screen is kind of nutty.
