NBA Live 08 Go-To Moves video

Chris Paul Live 08

Here is the video I put together displaying the Go-To Moves of many players from the practice gym. After finishing it up I realized how dark the gym is so it may be difficult to make out the player. At the very least you should be able to get an idea of their moves through the video that plays in the upper right corner (for some reason no video plays for Steve Nash or Allen Iverson).

Included are 24 different players: Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Tracy McGrady, Kevin Garnett, Steve Nash, Dirk Nowitzki, Carlos Boozer, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, Carmelo Anthony, Gilbert Arenas, Baron Davis, Yao Ming, Jermaine O’Neal, Shaquille O’Neal, Michael Redd, Chris Paul, Tony Parker, Lebron James, Vince Carter, Chauncey Billips, Shawn Marion, Elton Brand.

Continue on to view the video.

    Yeah there are tons more go to moves. Theres like 15-20 more players plus just about all of them have multiple go to moves (which includes moves, jumpshots, and lay up/dunks). There are way more, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
  • realy nice , like in real world, but Shawn Marion's shoot in realy GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm waiting for next video!!!!
  • Amaizing !!! I love this game so much !!! THE BEST GAME IN HISTORY OF EA SPORTS

    First off i like to say NBA Live 08 got it this year and im not hating NBA 2k(been playing it since the Dreamcast) at all cuase i love it for the past couple years but i played the demo and the only differnce was the graphics and some new animations.....but if u look closely lebron on 2k looks like he is on crack he is way to skinny the gameplay is still the same from last year....Live feels so much better and i played the demo too and they just simply revamped the whole gameplay system complety and feels fresher....im just tired of all these fake ass so called gamers hating on Live and giving it a fair shot and im not saying 2k is not trash cuase... i did not play the full version same thing with live but i feel is though live got it this year.....

  • DLane
    Looks good, thanks for the update Padre. I am glad that I am getting Live, but of course it doesnt hurt me to much that my roommate is getting 2k8 so I will get to play both games.
  • chiahatesyou
    To the people talking about them not getting the shots right and fadeaway this and that... you do see the video up on the side is actual IN REAL LIFE video ... not game... they are doing the exact moves in the video as in the game........ exactly

    Go to moves =/= signature shots imo
  • Dr Logic,

    No game is perfect but I have to agree with you that 2K8 is a must have you want a balanced B-Ball sim on both ends of the court.

    The dunks in 2K are just beautiful to say the least and there is a real sense of weight to a player when you see that rim give. The "D" is what wins me over every time with 2K. You really get a sense that "D" wins games this year (basing this on the demo). The AI is amazing (kills EA in the department). The players really get after it and there is always a sense of motion on the court away from the ball. I've played the demo quite a bit and each time I play it I'm pleasantly pleased with all the subtle things you might see in a real game.

    But as I said no game is perfect. I'm not the biggest fan of cut scenes and I can tell already I'm going to Phucking hate the cut scenes showing the coach pointing. In the demo I noticed it was already over used (not enough randomness to them) and I found myself saying "what the phuck, get on with it." 2K took an tiny step back to years past on cut scene abuse in this case but not enough to keep me from buying this title.

    at the moment 2K8 has the edge on which title to buy first. I do still think EA pulled of a nice version this year and should be proud. This is a good foundation for EA to build upon.

    This website reviews Live with an 8.1/10 ! That's the score I have been giving it before reading any of the reviews (my score 8/10). However, I do not care what the reviews say, I feel the game is great!!! Knowlegde is Power!!!!

    Pasta, are you going to be getting a copy of 2K8, and if so, are you going to post your thoughts as well? I would be interested in how the sig shots differ in each game.
  • Dr. Louis
    Live is better than 2k8. I would never get 2k, it does not feel right! I saw the trailer and I was not impressed! That's just me! Knowlegde is Power!!!!!
  • Dr Logic
    Please watch this...you won't regret it (nba 2k8...ultimate fan trailer #3)

    Honestly if you are a fan of basketball you cannot deny this. live 08 is going to be a great basketball game, but nba2k8 is clearly on another level. I am a LIVE guy who only made the switch last year and once you play 2k you understand what a true quality basketball game should feel like. Granted people have their own opinion and we are all free to choose for ourselves, but seriously, you would only be doing yourself a dis-service by not making nba2k8 your basketball game of choice.
  • lathrowback
    In the Demo Lebron also has that pull up when your running left or right
  • YESSSS, Jermaine O'neal's got to Move!!!

    He Pasta does the game play better when you SLOW down the game all the way. I tried it in the demo, but didn't see much of a difference!!!
  • Dr Logic
    For actual quality basketball gaming, check out the links.
    look at the realism, and try to hate.

  • thanks Padre
  • Nickademus1117
    Man, I have to wait till I go home for lunch to watch all of this. Thanks pasta again for postig this. I was honestly surprised that you were able to put it up so quickly. I thought you would put some quality time in and then post, leaving us all in suspense, but you come through yet again. Thanks for the hook up. looking forward to your review. Any word on that?
  • Antwuan
    Kind of weird that they are all variations of fadeaways though. Like, Melo should have something to do with a jab step, and Wade should have the spin he does in the lane.

    People with true fadeaways as go to moves would be Kobe, Yao, Garnett... the rest of them, I'm not so sure about.
  • nbalivesince95
    pasta see if you can do dunk and lay up packages with top tear slasher's like kb24 d wade bron t mac and vince to show there diffrence like you said with lebron only doin certain dunks that nobody else is programmed to do.
  • nbalivesince95
    to whatjust to reply to rich but players do play like them selves look at marion's shot at the end of the goto demo that pasta put in the vid its seperate from his goto move because its his natural shot. i'm sure he doesn't feel like t mac when shooting.
  • nbalivesince95
    nobody's doing what your doing for nba live 08 and i appreciate that allot pastapadre the allen ivo one the second to last player w/ right arm band and bred shorts didn't have the vid but you could tell its his runner as his goto move. i've linked your site tgo all the nba live heads so they can see the display that your putting on over here keep up the good work.

  • clos
    haha...they got JO's down pat...Dwade's also looks good...Ray Allen's is off though....he doesn't fade on his shot....other than that I think they look pretty good

    anyone else notice how they look alot better in the small screen during the course of the game?
  • chiahatesyou
    wow the actual videos in there showing the moves are awesome!
  • Dantecamp
    Nice Pasta, great work! Folks, there´s more to these signature moves than the GO-TO Moves. For example, in the demo, LeBron James performs 2 dunks that no other player can (at least in the demo). Hopefully, we´ll see more of that in the full game.
  • Rich
    Good work. The thing is I don't really think it should be highlighted as a new feature. Those guys do have step backs/fade aways that they use in games to their advantage. Other than those "Go-To Moves", the majority of the players feel the same when controlling, compared to the competition, where as players on their own, really play like themselves and differ from each other. Not trying to get in any debate, and I think Live 08 is better than 07, but even in NBA 2K7 and now 2K8, T-Mac, Lebron, Kobe, Wade, and etc. will feel totally different from each other and will do moves on their own as in real life to be effective on the court.
