With the EA press conference and the first day of E3 out of the way there is a wide variety of sports titles to track progress on. Outside of the NBA Live 09 365 details the rest have not presented the opportunity for in-depth looks. Below are the games that have had media reports so far.

NBA 2K9: No hands-on at E3. Operation Sports and Gamespot have reports.

NHL 2K9: No hands-on at E3. Operation Sports and Gamespot have reports.

NBA Live 09: Hands-on available at E3. Reports on 365 here, from NLSC, 5WG, Gamespot, IGN, and a producer blog. I’ve also added some offseason screens to the gallery which include Baron Davis as a Clipper and Elton Brand on the 76ers.

Facebreaker: Hands-on available at E3. Chase from OS has labeled this as his favorite game played so far via this update. I’ve been referring to this as a “fighting” game for months rather than a boxing game and he concurs.

NHL 09: Not present at E3. The secret online feature was not mentioned in the press conference however Game Informer has revealed this to be an MMO online mode. More details on this later.

NBA 09 The Inside: The first screenshots for the game are out and can be seen on IGN.

Pasta I want to see a pic of Ron Artest wearing a shirt that says “Property of Kings” while he’s on the bench, or Marbury with a towel over his head at the end of the bench. LOL. Can we also get a pic of Kwame Brown in the nose bleed sections?

Pasta or anybody out there, can someone please explain to me what 2k share is exactly. Will this basically mean that we would have to trust the people we download rosters from, or will 2k have their own roster that we can update more than just three times. Personally I update all my rosters on all my bball games every year, So I would rather do it myself than download rosters from someone else who might not do everything correctly. If 2k had daily roster updates that they made for us I would trust them way more than I would someone online. Also, this probably means the whole jamario moon thing will happen again, with any d-league or free agent players not being in the game if they get signed mid season. I wish 2k9 (by far the better game) had daily updates like live 09.
