NBA Live 08 Chris Paul screenshots
by 
EA Sports has released a handful of new screens featuring Chris Paul from NBA Live 08. Paul is the cover athlete for NBA 2K8, so of course it is sure to draw a reaction.
After seeing the disappointing screenshots released for 2K8 (and that is especially so with the two showing Paul) EA has come out and presented their own version of him for direct comparison.

WHAT’S UP WITH THE MESSED UP COLLAR ON THE YELLOW ROAD JERSEYS??? Please someone form EA, fix that! By the way, nice shots.
ps.: once again the player is wearing the wrong stuff, CP3 is a Jordan Brand guy and he’s wearing Nikes eventhough Live has Jordans in the game, LOL.

well it’s safe to say EA laid the smack down as far as graphics vs. 2K8. I think it’s funny how 2K fans act as if that title is flawless.
and yes I play 2K but it’s good to be objective. I just hope EA has what it takes under the hood where it counts.

Very nice pics. Live’s looks better, but I’m just waiting to actually play both games.
dantecamp is right about the shoes, but Paul is wearing one of the coolest named nike shoes: the Nike Air Bangers lol

No one can convince me that 2K’s models are better than Live’s. Aside from the scrawny legs, I think live looks better. I just hope the gameplay will be up to par. Until then I won’t buy.
I can’t believe people think it won’t be competition at all tho. I mean, the purpose for a new game is to improve it. It won’t be the same.
I still highly DOUBT Live will be better this year, but to say it’s YEARS behind is kinda ignorant IMO.

idc why everyone cares so much about the shorts..thats the only thing they can say to convince themselves that lives graphics arent better than 2k’s..i think if the bottom half of the players in live was fixed the graphics would be amazing

They look great,but what people have to remember is for the next gen consoles Live started over from scratch which is probably why the graphics are better. 2k just ported to the next gen from the current gen, so it was harder for Live to do put out a quality game. But this year Live has addressed most of the problems and on their way to be fixing them. Just read all of the blogs and aricles on IGN and play Live 07. You will see how much better Live 08 will be.

Off topic but worth mentioning. the Celtics may have just become the team to play with on live.
Garnett, Allen, Pierce. OH BOY!

ok people listen
2k9 and Live 09 are both gonna be great whitch is why im buying both.I have no preferance on either games side but this time im thinking its a pretty safe bet to say that 2k9 is gonna be better.You people that say that if the bottom half of the players in Live was fixed that the graphics would be amazing.Well news flash.2k’s graphics are already amazing check out some 2k9 screen shots and see how much better the faces and shorts look this time around.Plus the gameplay is awesome.PLUS at least the players have normal sized legs and have the players wearing the right shoes.Also half of Lives players look nothing like their real life counterparts.In fact I rented Live 08 and looked at my favorite player LeBron James only to be utterly disappointed.Im talking about the PS3 console.The only things that Live has on 2k is the All Star Weekend feature and ablility to individual practice.Im waiting for one of these games to make it so you can individual practice or team practice.Also 2k has free throw practice when Live does not.Lastly I am a girl.Ya. Guys arent the only ones who play basketball videogames.In fact i think ive made the best argument
