Nothing wrong with the best of both worlds.

i personally feel Live's players are way better. They have more life to them and don't feel like zombies. The screenshots for Live '10 look so real it's scary.

I agree, I think Live 10 models set the standard for what is near photorealistic, its how it SHOULD look like.

I agree, so far this year Live has won the graphics battle. Can't believe I just said that

Yeah hubie is the man. I was just giving you hard time in jest. Jeff Van Gundy is ok for the regular season games and some playoff games. IMO I think hubie should do the finals and more big playoff games. But mark jackson is the worst.

People can cry about the animations and look of the game, but you can't argue that the gameplay in terms of AI playcalling and defense wasn't the best there is. This coming from a guy that played both games EXTENSIVELY

Uhhhhh no it didn't....



And i'm not a 2k9 lover, in fact i'm probably more of live fan boy than you give me credit for even though i pointed out some things in the video.

Doesn't mean I'm crying about the animations or the look of the game. The animations are fine IMO the best they've been in about 4 years and the graphics have always been pretty good. Having said that I do disagree about the defense....I'm not sure what game you played but Live 09's rotation defense/helpside defense wasn't very good without changing the sliders.

In fact if I had to compare that defense on default settings to a NBA players game today i'd say Steve Nash or Amare's defense closely resembled Live 09's defense out the box......

Again I'm not bashing the game because i'm one the guys that will most likely spend 1 million hours breaking it down. But BASED ON THE VIDEO there were somethings that stood out to me. They weren't game killers just things i happend to notice.

Is this some kind of JOKE?

You got to be kidding me.....90 year old Hubie Brown can't even get the players name correct.

We are talking about a dude that thinks Jerry Stackhouse is still an elite scorer in this league...

If I needed a guy to talk about basic basketball fundementals than sure bring me Hubie Brown. Let him do a basketball fundementals video in Live.

But broadcasting a video game you have got to *&^* me.

I'd rather hear Mark Jackson's "Momma there goes that man" line a 1000 thousand times as opposed to hearing Hubie say "Now lets's talk about the defense, you see here Josh Smith (aka Josh Howard) of the Mavs failed to rotate when Anthony Wright (aka Antoine Wright) forced his man baseline."

I would have to check my rosters every game if Hubie Brown was calling the action because he'd screw up about 20 times per game on annoncing players correctly. But hey old Hubie's been at it for about 60 years and now he's got that Pat Summerall syndrome
