For guys concerned about 1 guy doing the ratings and such... Consider that since ea owns the exclusive to synergy there is no reason to think they may not use the same information from a synergy or other company to help drive their ratings changes. just have an individual subscription as opposed to a contract.

Maybe his ratings were affected over the season, but if he starts there...
I saw that as well... they had me scratching my head on that one. He is a very good player but one way hes better than Iverson which they rated a 94

Did u really think it was going to be any different this year from past years?

We all know 2K is going to be the better game you can see that from playing the Live 09 demo. I think Live will be a solid game this year but 2K is still going to reign supreme.

IMO 2K could have stolen a lot of Live's thunder a lot earlier if they would have gone head to head with EA by releasing their own videos and info at the same time they did.

no, 2k would just have come up with more gimmicky features that might not play good, but would sound good and thus lessen the 2K features impact

Im not sure what you mean Czar.

and CP3 is without a doubt better than AI. if you look at that same pic you see positon rating 1. Means hes the best PG in the NBA.

What he means (assuming) is that EA doesn't own any kind of exclusivity with Synergy Sports (the people providing the real life stats & tendencies to NBA teams & EA) so its quite possible that instead of the overall integration, 2K could just have one guy who has a subscription and gets the same information. Then the updates would be quite similar to Live except that 2k would have a middleman between the game stats and the synergy information.

Don't know why you mentioned AI when AI is listed as a SG in the game, has been for years now. Doesn't mean Paul is the best PG in the NBA either, means he's the highest rated PG in NBA 2k9. I'm not saying anyone is better than anyone but you've got some misconceptions there.

Your not understanding what I meant.

For example when EA released their Live 365 feature 2K could have released this Living Roster and 2K Insider info as a way to counteract EA.

I think had they done this they would have been able to steal a lot of the buzz EA was able to create a lot earlier.

I was referring to the dude who said iversons better than Chris Paul, i know AI is a SG but that doesn't stop comparisons. Its obviously not fact but CP3 did make first team all NBA and is the highest rated PG in 2k9.. so IMO he is the best PG in the NBA.

The 99 rating on that screen shot doesn't necessarily mean that Paul is rated 99 by 2k. They never rate anybody 99. But as you go through Association mode, your players do get better and their ratings will go up temporarily if they are extremely happy (have high morale percentages)... just like in 2k8. So I assume that's what it is, as these pics are indeed taken from Association simulation. Chris Paul is probably in the 95-96 range to start out.
