People like me are the problem? I complain about 2K's shortcomings every year but I never have an overwhelming negative view of the game........So let me get this straight, somebody who thinks 2K did a great job and is actually supportive of them is bad for business? How about you guys nitpicking about stuff and complaining about every little thing thats wrong with the game, even complaining about **** thats not that serious, then 2K overdoes it the next year or mess something else up. They try to pack as much stuff in the game as possible and people still aren't happy......Thats good for business right? They pack all that crap in the game. I love 2K9 and if they go flipping the game upside down, a lot of people will be hot....

i didnt realize defensive flaws in a basketball game was nitpicking.

but ok man.

You and I both know that I'm talking about more than just the defense.....This game gets nitpicked to death on this forum from hairstyles to dumb **** like kneepads.....

Hah, DC and I played today and I won because the sub screen froze and wouldn't leave.. I was able to see a small corner of the court around the graphic and managed to nail a three with Westbrook to win the game by 1. After the game ended, the sub graphic finally left the screen. So weird. Wilcox was there to challenge it, but he drained it anyway.

hmm im still playing the PC version even with all its flaws...well ive been mostly modding the hell out of 2k9...shoes, dornas, faces, tatoos, courts....im hoping they get the sounds modded soon...

one thing ive always hated from 2k games is that the animations seem to take over the movements of the players and i end up doing something that i dont want the player to do...

Well said to the thread starter, I definitely agree with everything u said, especially the defense aspect of the game which is really sad. I hopefully we can expect MUCH more from 2K10 and not a repeat performance.

So many people have been "done" with this game since it came out, yet they are still playing.

Shockingly enough I actually put my foot down this year.

Played it at my friend's.. and I just didn't fall in love.

I never thought I'd put my foot down to video games, but it started with NCAA football last year.

NCAA had a lower chance of being shunned than 2K too.

Nothing but a bunch of noise. It's the same thing every year especially with this holding 2k games to a higher standard crap. Every year someone makes this same almighty revelation about 2k basketball yet they come back year after year. I know the game isn't perfect but it's the best simulation of the sport of basketball to date. I say stop crying and be glad that NBA live isn't the only game on the market.
