NBA Live 08 demo coming “very soon”
August 31, 2007 by pastapadre
Update 9/5: The demo has officially passed MS certification and can now literally be expected to be released very soon.
I have received word from EA that the demo for NBA Live 08 is expected to be out "very soon" and to check out the official website for more upon its release.
The details of the demo are currently unknown as well as whether it will only arrive for the Xbox 360 or if it will also be available on the PS3.
seriously………it’s not coming to psn until after the game is out….I’m just not feeling putting 60 bucks on a game that has sucked for 4-5 years now……but i looks sooo good…..I hope it comes to psn before it’s release.
Thanks for the info pasta. Hopefully that very soon means tomorrow or very late tonight.
That’s all I needed to hear…can’t wait! Hopefully they’ll get over the hump this time around. We can’t have our hopes dashed one more time.
So that means basically definetly it will be out next week right pasta?

The tone made me feel it might be out even today. Not sure how the holiday on Monday would affect the release of a demo if it doesnt come before then.
The guy @ the e3 stage demo said it would come out a month b 4 the game and the release date is oct 2nd so maybe we’ll get it set 2nd?
well he might not of meant exactly a month
We will get it september 5 watch.

No, its the weekend, they’re all gone. There must’ve been a plan on when to have it released, and given the timing of the info I got I would think it’d be before people got back to work on Tuesday.
Yeah i’m thinking sunday or monday
you guys serious??? cool..
Maybe not a good example, but some of my friends have tried the pc version of the FIFA 08. All of them are really dissapointed, that EA did not do any graphical upgrade, it plays exactly the same like FIFA 07, they only refreshed the starting line-ups, the music, photoshopped a new coverbox, and READY TO SELL!
^^^Thats the PC we are talking about the 360 where you can do more.Plus you are talking about fifa completely irrelevant. Why did you make that comment?
that guy who said september 5 might be right it is not out yet and tommorow is the 5 i think he might be from EA?
i think uknown might be right
pasta got any more details
I thought it would be out by now. Still getting the “very soon” statement. It could come at any time. Generally demos are released at 5am ET/2am PT. I wouldn’t be surprised to see it out overnight. I figure they wouldn’t spread the word on it unless MS had already certified it and they had it scheduled to come out at a specific day/time.
thanks for the info, i will check every now and then on my xbox
try to tell us if the demo comes out on this page if you can
this sucks.. i have waited all this time and it still isnt out
damn i really wanna try dis demo badly i hope eas improves man
pasta do u think its gonna be out tomorrow since tomorrow is the showcase event ?
Will it be out tonight?
they just need to release this demo already, this “very soon” carp is pissing me off
i know i want to play the stupid game the vidoes are making me crazy
pasta go t any new info yet?
this demo is just driving me crazy every one sais it is coming out soon and that was a week ago and still isn’t out it better be out tonight or tommorow i want to play it so bad
pasta any new info?
it has to be out tommorow moring or tonight a month doesn’t mean 3 days after.
I think it will either be available tonight, or available after the EA showcase which is tomorrow at 4 pm pacific time.
I can’t wait to play it. I’ve only had a 360 a couple months, now, so I downloaded the NBA Live 06 demo to help pass the time.
Yeah I want the demo so bad
same here i really want the demo bad this yr looks so much better tha the other yrs i have a feeling nex yr the game is gonna be awesome since its so smooth now and they added features next yr the ycan make da gameplay even better i really wanna try dis demo already lol
yea im thinking it will be out late tonigh or early in the moring due to the showcase being tomorrow and all lets hope
Lol at teh people saying tehy are looking forward to 09.. Live is done if this game isnt better than 2k7. EA [Everything's Asinine] sports basically ripped 2k7 off for 08. David Gardner will probably be rolling over in his grave this year.
Theres absolutely no reason why anyone should be ashamed of looking forward to any game. I’ve played it extensively, and I’m looking forward to it. Hopefully the demo shows improvement from back then and people can get a feel for the game. Then they can decide on their own if it is worthy of a purchase or not.
I am absolutely shocked that this demo has not dropped yet. Talk about a huge dissapointment. Now I will be shocked when it actually does.
OMG I have a ps3 and have been waiting for nba live 07 but that got cancelled and ive been waitn on 08 ever since and the vids are driving me crazy too i just want to play the game VERY SOON LIKE 2MORROW OR 2NITE SOON
Hey guys watch the ea showcase tonight there will be info on the demo hopefully it will be out after they show it tonight at the showcase
they do this on purpose they know were all waiting if it cmes out quick the the game is good if we keep getting the runaround then we know it needs more work and it sucks!
I just heard that the demo has officially passed MS certification. So it should literally be out very soon now.
they have been saying very soon forever!
when? today tomorrow this week???????
This is purely speculation on my part, but I think theres a good chance it will be out at 2am PT/5am ET (when demos are generally released) early Thursday morning. The demo has only been waiting on the cert. process to complete, so I would expect it to come out at the next update. We’ll see.
well all this waiting it better be good and worth te wait. no one evens has any up to date news on the game
hey pasta do you think we will get the demo tonigh since it just got cleared
