NBA 2K9 Confirmed For PC

[Von Dozier]

Awesome.

Basically means if anything ever happens to this series (knock on wood), this game could still live on forever with customization on the PC. Just buy a wired 360 controller to play it, and you're good.

Based on those two cards, I'm guessing that you want something under $150....The 8800GT seems to be the best value in that range: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814133232, though if you're willing to go over that price, I'd take a look at the Radeon HD 4850.

Also, second the 8800gt. I have one and it's amazing. Handles everything I throw at it, even runs Crysis at high.

Added to the pc version:

* Does not support any online functionality, including but not limited to online games, 2K Share, ReelMaker or Living Rosters

** Internet access required to install and authenticate the game.


So does this mean that mulitplayer is limited or that there isn't one at all?

Not just Michael Jordan!

Let's start thinking of a whole championship squad patch.

For real though, who knows what level of patching we will be getting, as this is a whole new ballgame/company we are dealing with here.

At this point it really is a wait and see approach. Maybe we can get one of the developers to give so insight on the level of "patchability" this game is going to have.

Oh I was the one who did that when I first posted the topic on this board. But yeah its accurate so I posted it since the creator of the game said it on the 2k board.

It's hard to figure out how that reads because it could just mean they don't have their own built-in servers, or whatever, but there could still be direct IP play for online games. And I really don't care about the other 3 things (share, reel, rosters) as those are just novelty things and besides the community will more than take of rosters.

So it's hard to tell. As someone who really doesn't play online much at all I really don't care, but I guess we'll just have to see once it's released.
