Well, I’m officially letting all of you know that NBA LIVE 365 has now been turned on, and is scheduled to go live between really late Friday, and early Saturday morning. You should see all roster lineups accurately reflected in-game based on what’s currently happening in the real NBA season. You’re probably wondering about DNA and Tendencies right? Well, those will be ready for you to download soon, but we’re waiting for teams to play a few games so that you see some differences in their DNA and tendencies. This is an exciting and brand new feature for not only us, but sports games period so there’s bound to be some kinks that need to be worked out. I wanted to thank you on behalf of the entire NBA LIVE 09 development team for being so excited, eager and patient about the implementation of this feature. Because this is happening as the season goes along, it’s something that we wanted worked out and fully tested before we turned on the switch to you guys. Two things to note; there are some inconsistencies in the lineups that you may see, but they will be addressed as we move forward. Also, in order to keep the daily updates going, if there is a player at any point in time during the season that is not in our game but has played a game in the real NBA, you’ll see him reflected in-game as a generic player. Don’t worry, he’ll be implemented in-game accurately that same week, and the generic player will be out of your game. Thanks again for the patience everyone! These are truly exciting times for all of us as the future of basketball is now! Thanks, The NBA LIVE 09 Dev Team

Thank You EA

Keep doing what you're doing

Even though I am no longer playing this game, I gotta give props to EA & Steph for keeping guys in the loop. May re-purchase the game after seeing how the 365 turns out. Peace!!!!

You know, as of 6:00 a.m. CST some of the rewind games played like San Antonio vs Portland and Nuggets vs Clippers are not there. For those rewind games that are there from 10/31/08, you only get the final score. There are no box scores, current year team stats, nothing. The DNA of course is screwed up with everything at 14% or 15%.

I'm confused. Did you guys forget to flip another switch or something? At this point, I'm starting to feel like you spent more time on perfecting your TNT commercials than your product. You are not delivering on your promises and have been frustrating the hell out of your customers.

WOW!!! Give them a chance to get the kinks out, the season just started man... At least give them until next weekend to get this up and running correctly...

I for one am not frustrated, I am still enjoying the game.. So I think you only speak for a few people when saying they are frustrating the consumers..

Uh, I wasn't speaking in regards to this issue alone. There are many other problems with the game in which consumers have voiced their concerns for weeks.

I didn't say I wasn't enjoying the game either. We've all played games in which we're trying to say beat a level, but it takes forever to do so. It's frustrating as heck, but it's still fun during the process.

i'm all for this, but why do i get the feeling that we're all taking part in one big beta test with this 365 thing? i understand its new, i understand its revolutionary, but shouldn't they have "worked out the kinks" when the game was in development? there were nba games being played in june...

Come fellas did you really expect anything else from EA? I'm fully prepared to start buying EA releases 3 months from release date just so all the NEW features work properly.

you don't even know what goes into the process, I'm sure it's hard work so give them a chance and relax.
