No I got the full game on 360.

It's a great game. I didn't get 2k8, only 2k7.. but it is a big improvement over that..... only thing that i dont like is that the isomotion seems to have taken a back step.. maybe i need to get used to it more.

Just played 2k9 on xbox, its BEAST. so realistic and theyve tweaked it quite a bit since last year, the movement and dribble is much better and you dont get trapped as much. also its more realistic in midair.

Live has got its work cut out for it if it wants to compete with 2k9.

Picked FIFA up for 78 at Big Dub...then went across to EB to compare prices and they were sold out...feel sorry for whoever bought it at EB

And have preordered 2K9 for 70 bucks

Downloaded Live 09 on PSP.
It seems more realistic and not so much of an arcade style dunk fest. Has some great options with FIBA, mini games and Franchise mode etc. From what I've read it will be the same for Live on the PS3 and Xbox. Obviously EA has figured out people want a more realistic experience like 2K. Still, I can't decide which to go for on my PS3 and have been a long term NBA Live player. Comes out in the US today so will be checking for online reviews.

Also downloaded NBA 09: On the Inside for PSP. It's not bad and great for a freebie, but will be sticking with Live on the handheld.

the main feature on nba live 09 is the nba 365, and you need to purchase it seperately for 20 bucks..

Well somehow I was able to overlook the poor post up and dribble gameplay becuase of how impressive it looked... They spwnt so long trying to make Kobe's Shooting stroke look real and forgot to poot some decent realistic dunks on...

I'm definately leaning towards 2K9 right now


Seriously??

That will be tough for Live to crack. The article was rather conclusive that 2K9 was the best out there, but IGN hasn't even reviewed Live yet. Makes me want 2K9 though...like now.
