I have been informed that my copy of NBA Live 08 should arrive on Wednesday the 26th. Once I have it in hand I'll try and post up some full game videos, put together my impressions and compare/contrast with what I played back in June at the Community Event, see if I can get some early online impressions up, and try to get some questions about the game answered including player ratings!

If you have questions or things you'd like me to look for feel free to leave them in the comments for this posting or any future posting. I can't guarantee I'll be able to answer them all, but I'll try to address as many as I can time permitting.

I just want to see some gameplay videos of the final product, It’s all I care about. I don’t need to find out ratings and all that, cause I’ll see it whne I get the game in my hands. Look forward to seeing your impressions!! I still believe Live has atleast two more years before they release a complete basketball video game!! Gameplay wise IMO

Are the ” Go-to-Moves” able to be pulled off at anytime or at certain points within the game..
and is it a certain button n direction that needs
to be performed to execute the “Go-to-Move”

Make a video of contrasting teams like pistons vs suns or spurs vs nuggets just to see if there’s a difference in the game between half-court teams and up-tempo teams

off topic I guess but i was to excited not to share. This would be a nice roster update if it happens.

What’s that, a player that actually wants to play alongside Kobe. I like Marion and I like the idea of this trade.

“I think I would fit right in,” Marion said. “People talk about the triangle offense all the time, like it is impossible. But it’s an offense. Wherever you play, you have to learn the offense. It’s not that complicated. You pass, you cut, you slash. Offense is offense. And I would love to play with Kobe.”

Came earlier than expected. My copy is here! Will have a video up probably within an hour or so.

The first thing I noticed was the net is way better than in the demo or in the build I played back in June. Small thing, but makes a big difference after seeing how good 2Ks looks.

cant wait to hear your impressions of the game. I have been a diehard 2K fan, but the live demo got me excited. I will probably end up with Live this year…depending on impressions and reviews. Glad to hear about the net animations. I agree with you on that. Makes it seem a bit more real.

working on uploading the first game now, probably take about 20-30 minutes from this point.

Be easy on me lol. I went straight into a game without adjusting anything and taking on superstar difficulty. Plus in order to record I have to play on my computer monitor. Makes it tough in some ways lol
