Because I love basketball, and I am a 2k guys and always will be, I do like some of the things live is doing this year, I do like there roster updated system there doing this year too, I think that will be better then 2K's. I thought this thread was about the faces, on that not LIVES graphics are always lagging behind 2K every year IMO.


Also, it doesn't hurt that I can pick up LIVE tomorrow.

I can not wait to see the reviews when the games drop next week. I think NBA Live will have ok reviews but when compared to 2K, its going to be over for em. The only interesting this I was looking forward to was NBA academy which I have been begging for waht seems like forever in a basketball game. NBA Live rewind, that play with last nights line-ups...who the **** cares, please find me someone who cares to play with Kwame Brown over Pau Gasol please im beggin you. Synergy Sports should have sold the formula to NBA 2k...NBA live cannot implement that type of statistical analysis like 2k would and they wont even need that this season. I mean 2K's signature style compared to Live's Quick Strike Ankle Breakers is not even fare. 1 thing though, I hope they fixed the effectiveness of Isomotion, guys like D-Wade are hard to cover in real life and should feel like that when playin with or against him. Association to Dynasty Mode, I give up pass the controller and lets get this party started man, bring me the champs 2k9, NBA live is this version of the Yankees, all that money and for what???

every since I got my 360 in 05 iv bought both live and 2k the same day,needless to say I've always taken live back the very next day,but this year I won't even waste my time on that garbage this year 2k all day its hard to even b objective about the 2 games I used to love live,but that time has come and gone R.I.P nba live as a series maybe someone can breath life back into u one day,lol (oh yeah LAKERS ALL DAY)

Honestly, I give a fair opinion always, and Lives players models have always looked weaker, also I think there is no comparison to arenas when comparing LIVE to 2K. LIVE is just more generic, thats what hurts me with LIVE, even though I think I''m going to but LIVE tomorrow. I think I will end up with both, I was only getting 2K, but now I changed my mind, like I said I think I;m getting Live also.

Just so you know FF, we did a ton of work on arena lighting this year.

You won't just see the one arena lighting like in NBA LIVE 08.

Thats great to hear, but just like in NHL09, all the Arenas look the same, thats great about then lighting, but did you guy makes the Arenas stand apart from each other this year?

We have the different arenas in the game. Could you be a bit more specific FF?

Just want to make sure what I'm telling you is what you're looking for.

Went to look like at the 2k screens and I have to say its a push. Some hits and misses on both sides. You also have to take into account players expression changes and which system the pix are from.
