NBA Live 09 Review

[rikkifer]

sure ea made a few mistakes but overall the game is solid have already played nine games in dynasty (i am 7-2) love the defensive lockdown controls and the dynamic dna and cant wait to see how 365 works generally i am very pleased with the game and have no qualms about playing it for a long time to come so 2k can just bite the proverbial bullet

open ur eyes people...call me what u want...fanboy or whatever..live sucks...it has for years...it was never going to do well on next gen consoles purely because they built a fan base because they had no direct competition..but now the likes of 2k series have a better foundation.. agreed that games never come out of the box to suit everyone..thats why u can tweak things with sliders and settings....down and dirty.. live has bad graphics and the motion capturing is horrible, they don't even have signature shots...wtf? how can it be realistic if you don't have that....sure adding FIBA teams and the likes of Live 365 (which i have been told you need to pay for??), the 2k series have only played with things that need to be changed, i will continue to buy 2k games, until EA sports makes some serious improvements, but hey each to their own, thats why they have forums...

Thanks for the giant run-on sentence admitting that you are trolling. Never played the game, therefore you know it "sucks".

Why are you even in this forum? Go back to the 2K forums and enjoy the game you chose instead of bashing another game for no reason other than to make yourself seem "cool".

Man you guys take this seriously, but he did speak some truth about Live, Im not bashing at all but there is no signature shots accept for a couple I did notice Garnett's shot was on point, and they tried to get Ray Allen's but not so much. But overall its no comparison on which game is better, but everybody has there own opinon.

Im calling you a troll. You don't even have the game and it sucks?

Got it

I'm just curious... what is so impressive about the defensive side of the ball?

It seems like it has no effect on the shooter and aside from the pushing in the post and the different degrees of "lockon" there isn't much else that is impressive.

Don't even get me started on the lack of challenging shots in the post.

Ok man you dont gotta like EA or the Live series but dont come on the board spreading a bunch of lies about the game it does have signature shoots, you dont have to pay for live 365 if you buy it new and even then the price will drop so they proable wont even make much of it, I mean live 09 isnt better then nba 2k9 but it is a solid game, I'm not trying to convert to live or tell u to like it. But sound like a straight up child coming on a thread just to spread lies abut a game so you can feel good. If you had the game then then you have all right to not like it and diss it but pretty much proved you dont, so you came here to do the whole 2k for life EA sucks which is common on any game that has a EA symbol on it. Seeing how there there the so called evil empire cause they out bided 2k for the NFl rights which was put out by the nfl.
