NBA 2K9 Multiplayer Hands-On (IGN)

[Al_Bundy]

I'm really excited about this 5v5 Team Up feature. What I want to know is if I'll be able to team up with other users from my console to play with and against other players online. EX., if I have a friend over, can we team up with other human players online? Or will it just be one human player per console?

In unranked game....YES, you can team up with people on same console...it's already there in previous games. But not rank game though.

This has easily been my most anticipated and requested feature ever since I started playing Nba2k games. Only 2 weeks to go! Can't wait!

not to go off topic but ive never understood how people considered pressing all game cheating. so a coach that goes with a full court press isnt playing fair??


im not that excited about the 5on 5 . of course im going to try it, but in sports games i like control and with this i would rather go to the gym than do this

Because the fatigue would drastically change a team that pressed all game in real life, but in the game there is no penalty. If players got suitably tired after a certain amount of turbo abuse, it wouldn't be an issue.

When was the last time an NBA team pressed all game (every minute, every possession?)
