NBA 2K9 Patch Released For 360/PS3, Impressions Here

[DTX3]

This game is just unplayable pre-patch and post-patch. I've tried every slider, every roster, every myth, and every solution that posters have come up with to fix the gameplay, and i continue to be disappointed with the gameplay. HOPEFULLY next year's game(if there is one) will bring back the awesomeness that was 2K8, but until then no more basketball gaming for me.

Thanks 2K, for ruining what was left of my basketball gaming. That's 2 down and 1 more to go, luckily SCEA won't disappoint me as a sports gamer(whats left of me) and bring in another awesome version of Show.

Seriously guys, didn't the computer just get super hard after the patch? I could always beat the cpu on hof, well mostly. However now I can't win any games on hof. Did they mention anything about upping the code for hof?

Can you point out whats so bad about it?

Jab Step Fixes – The ‘Jab Step’ move has been reconstructed to be more balanced in the post. Specifically, it should not be effective in user vs. user games unless the ball-handler touches the defender. Also, performing the ‘Jab Step’ should no longer make the defense go back when the ball-handler loses the dribble.

2K is funny man. They take THAT ^ out but they NOW ADD the user being FORCED to bite on sizeup (LT) moves. Just play the CPU or another user. If you are playing D on them and they press LT, you will be FORCED to shift directions.

Why do they disrespect defense like this man?

Because the user would never get faked out

The point is the offense is already THAT powerful, why give them any more advantages. I just feel it makes no sense to force someone to get fakes out.
