Hey,
The demo is the demo!! It’s not the full version of game! I have played the demo for hours at a time and the problems people are mentioning did not make or break my playing time. Listen, if you walk the street looking for a problem, you will get one!!!
A wise man unveil that to me!! Next, not to brag, but I can buy both; however, that would be a poor choice of money management! If I returned the undesired game (in my case NBA 2k8) to GameStop or EBgames, they will not give me nearly what I paid initially. Therefore, I have lost money on my investment , not smart!!!! Oh by the way, do not mention 2k’s servers because it’s not a concern. I have Madden 08 and the online game is great! I hope I did not go above your head!!!!Enjoy 2k8, it should be fun, HA!! Knowledge is Power!!!

The demo is great! I kept playing and I noticed there are some minor problems; however, the gameplay is great and the game looks amazing! There is no doubt in my mind I will purchase Live 2008. I tried 2k7 and the graphics are subpar; on the other hand, the gameplay is outstanding. What seems to bother me is that indivduals are so nitpicky with Live and Madden! Hey, it’s a video game!!!! They will always have flaws. In NBA 2k7, the players run through the basketball goal stance. No one ever mentions that defict. While playing in a game, the player’s s shorts will begin to tear away from there body, that looks like a bad horror film. I feel NBA 2k8 and Live 2008 will be great games. Believe it or not, both will have pros and cons as well. Meanwhile, all of the “2k fan boys” stop acting like NBA 2k is perfect, because it’s not! It wasn’t perfect on Dreamcast and it’s not on XBOX 360. I have owned both games, I know!!!!!!!!

Hey I am not a 2k fanboy. I am a fanboy of the best basketball game. When did anybody say 2k had no problems? Had nothing to fix? It is a video game, every game is going to have glitches and problems. If they made every game perfect why would we want to buy the new release the following year?

Fact is, 2k has better online, 2k servers are ten times better than EA servers. 2k has better leagues, Live is just implimenting it this year, yes, once again EA copies from 2k.

Also who is saying 2k is copying from EA with their tendancies meter? They both came out with it the same time, and 2k has done that better. At least with 2k cell bar also acts as a cold and hot meter, your not telling people where you are going to shoot the ball. I think EA has taken this idea, because I think after thinking it over, the grid that also shows your opponent where your going to shoot, could have been more thought out, like 2k did.

Players still move like robots in Live 08 demo, bad controls, and unresponsive and late responding moves.

Now I can think like a EA fanboy, or I can think like this, both games will be $60. Buying both games is $120.00. That is a lot of money to spend when 2k8 will be the game to own in the end once again. Why would I waste my money. I did that in 05 and 06. In 07 I just bought 2k7 and saved myself $60.

Remember it is not just about the game, it about the money it costs to buy it. I can spend that $60 on COD4 or Halo 3.
