NBA 2K9 may very well be the best game to come out this year. But just as with this season's crop of college football teams, even the best seem to have some major flaws. Check out Jayson Young's article: NBA 2K9 Demoted to D-League For Poor Online Performance and then be sure leave your own feedback!

	"We’re only a few weeks into the virtual season, but already, NBA 2K9’s online meltdown has earned itself a spot in the NBDL. There's a chance the online issues will cause some gamers to give up the game completely, but signs of server stability are at least a sign that the real NBA 2K9 is trying to shine through. Either way, surely nobody could have anticipated that this first-round pick, so full of potential, would fall so far so quickly during the launch period."

Good article. Research and everything!

Give it time. I bet there is a article in a month proclaiming this game the best online experience ever....maybe....

I will co-sign for the simple fact that he uses the Grizzles too, yes I know I should have read the rest of the article (i did) but I was sold on that point alone.

Ha. Great article.

Can't say I disagree with anything aside from the Ranked team-ups. I can see their mindset behind it: Let's just use the most popular teams so people just won't quit.

Although, when you think about it... it's actually being contradictory to awarding the title of "best team player" every week. If you get stuck with Antoine Walker, you should have to make the best of it. The reality is though I'm sure guys would rather quit than have that happen.

It's an experiment that can be fleshed out in the future. What makes it so great is it's a server side thing that can be addressed at any time.

But the inability to play games against friends with ease is just downright inexcusable. After 3 years, you'd think things would get better, not worse.

Ok I just read the article, and I won't lie when I first saw the title I thought it was just another rant, but he did do his research and has some stats to back it up....way to represent the M!

This is becoming a trend with our sports games...
