Good post rdelizo35,

There are always going to be people who like NBA Live over NBA 2K and vice versa. Granted, if you compare both games, last year, each had its fair share of flaws as well as things that Live and NBA 2K did well. I tend to not favor one over the other because of the tendency that, if I say that NBA Live is better than NBA 2K, then I'm making the mistake of not recognizing the inherent flaws, bugs, and glitches in the game.

Here are a few things I know. NBA Live in previous years has not received as much "hype" and "media acclaim" than NBA 2K because for the simple fact that NBA Live tended to cater to a more arcade style of gameplay whereas NBA 2K appealed to more hardcore NBA gamers who wanted "realism." In short, the argument has been that NBA Live has had all the "style" while NBA 2K boasted of "substance."

However, I think that it all comes down to how each gamer chooses to play these games. For those who play "realistically", it is likely that the game will reflect that regardless if it's NBA Live or NBA 2K. Conversely, if a gamer chooses to play a more open style with more fast breaks, "run 'n gun," etc. the game will reflect that.

I caution those who are quick to bash NBA Live or NBA 2K with this: You want to know how NBA Live '09 or NBA 2K9 is? Play the demo, rent the game, or buy it. That way, you will have at least have had the time to know what it's really about because you've actually played both.

In that way, if you decide that one of the games is not for you, then at least you'll have something to go on than just bashing the game based on what you think is the case without actually having spent time playing it.

As the old saying goes, "Don't knock it, until you've tried it." That way, your opinion of the game may not change, but at least you can make a comment that you can back up with some personal experience instead of opting to bash a game you think is not good just because the competition made it.

seriously s dot do u do this at every website or just ea related god its like ur 2k's bi#@h just stop starting fights and please never post here again

"It is reasonable to compare nba live to nba 2k, coz these are the 2 leading basketball frenchises. Certainly none of them are perfect, but at this moment, in 2008, You can not get any better. Just play 2k8, if You want the best nba game on the market......"

Did I say that NBA 2K8 wasn't the best basketball game out there? I don't think I did. In fact, many times I've said that 2K8 is the better basketball game. However, the games are bad. I really don't understand your argument Reignman. If anything you further my point. Yes the games can be much better, but when your competition is coming up with horrible games year after year, they aren't going to be concerned with making a better product. Once again, 2K8 is the best basketball game out there. Read what I wrote, because I'm tired of you trolls coming back with "2K8 is the best game out there cabrillo24". You guys just further re-inforce the point that I've been making. Everytime you compare 2K8 being better than live because of Live's weakness, just further proves that 2K8's success has depended on Live's failures. It's like winning a beauty contest with nothing but fat ugly broads. Seriously 2K8 wasn't a good game. And I know some of you will come back with "it's the best game out there", it was, but the game is still bad. You can't change that fact. The fact like people take it personal like sdot cracks me up. He's the biggest fan boy in the history of 2K. Just look at all his post. LOL. Lil man cracks me up.

- sDot. Looks like I hit that nerve again. How many people have owned you on here? I don't care where you're from, you take this too personal 2K fanboy. For someone who reps Queens and the streets, you sure are on here a lot. Are you done vicariously living on here boy? You're satisfied with mediocrity, that's all you boy. The fact that you're are so biased and oblivious to 2K's flaws makes me believe you've never even played the game.

fam if YOU don't wanna talk 2 me DON'T I really don't care like YOU said already U through talkin 2 me

SO STOP replying SERIOUSLY

ur NOT a "REAL GAMER" is that suppose 2 B an insult LOL wutz REALLY gud wit U

U owned me WTF R U TALKIN bout is dis some TRU GAMER slang fam i'm from QUEENS their's ONLY 1 way to OWN sum1 & dats 2 WASH'EM in a FIGHT so I don't kno wut YOU talkin bout

LOL@comparing 2K and Live to Kobe and Jordan. More like Tryonne Lue and Smush Parker, and yes Sdot, you’re the biggest fan boy on here. You’ve been called out, put on blast enough times by people on here and you take it so personal and start talking about being a “real balla” and what not, which made me chuckle. Trust me, I’ve played more real ball than you ever will. Been coached by NBA level coaching, trust me when I say I KNOW the game of basketball. You act like the NBA 2K series is the perfect game. Was it the best bball game? Yes. But that’s not saying much. All basketball games have been bad. Both Live and 2K were HEAVILY flawed, full of exploits, lack of features, lack of ingenuity, graphics, predictable A.I., sliding, lack of defensive controls/animations, recycled commentary (even though Live flows better)…we could go on for days…. Both games need a lot of work. NBA Live seems to address a lot of their issues, and I wish NBA 2K8 would do the same (not to say they aren’t). 2K8 has been the better game, I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, but it’s success is heavily dependent on the failures of NBA Live. Both are bad games, flat out and for you 2K fanboys to say “it’s the greatest ball game out there” you’re absolutely right! I couldn’t agree with you more. But just because it’s the best basketball game out there, doesn’t necessarily make it a great game.

What the hell are You talking about? It does not make any sense to compare actual sport-games to something ideal, perfect product! As the quality of the games are changing, your needs are gonna follow them, people are never going to be satisfied.

It is reasonable to compare nba live to nba 2k, coz these are the 2 leading basketball frenchises. Certainly none of them are perfect, but at this moment, in 2008, You can not get any better. Just play 2k8, if You want the best nba game on the market.

Sdot, I understand your biased as hell. You're the epitome of ignorance on here. You must not be a real gamer. I'm done with you like I was done with you in other post. No reply needed, I think I've owned you enough. Thanks.

Pasta which is the roster of the national team of puerto rico?

fam ya'll sound STUPID STUPID huddy show me 1 POST where I said I didn't like LIVE just 1 that's NOT the issue I like MADDEN & NCAA TOO but they still have LOTS 2 improve on stop ASSuming ISH i'ma point out LiVE flaws until dey fix'em

NOW 2 the FAG who said the GAY ISH about lips on some 's ass Fam REAL TALK YOU PUSSY cut it out

cabrillo again how many times t=do we gotta go over this IT's ur OPINION dat both games R terrible wit 1 being slightly better BUT that's NOT MINE so ur whole theory doesn't apply to what i'm talkin bout it's like if I think SOCCER is a BETTER sport than BASEBALL & then you say they both boring as ______ that don't make YOU RIGHT u copy

[quote comment="30725"]if u love 2k and dont like live dont comment on how bad live is when u know other people are just gonna bash u for being an idiot. why cant we just love the game of basketball and appreciate both games?(well an exception is live 07..that was horrific) but i mean live is doing a ok job correcting their flaws and i applaud them for that but we cant say 2k isnt yet...because we havent seen any video. and really to me my main flaw in 2k was the missed layups and floor spacing also lack of features. my main flaws with live were too easy to score skinny player models....odd signature jumpshots.....bad rebounding......ugly dunks......to easy to dunk.....floating in slow motion passes.....to hard to intercept passes...etc...so i know live is correcting about one every game lol[/quote]

true like people post coments to hate and/or try to get bashed and start a fight

[quote comment="30717"]Why no 2k info on this site??
I know that nothing has come out, but last year was so Live-biased.. Just be a bit more neutral...[/quote]

looks like everything there is to know about 2k9 has been posted here on the site. given that 2k doesnt release much about their games or involve the community what else is there?

John. 2K doesn't really post much information until the release and from what I've seen doesn't have much community events. However, when 2K does release information Pasta does post it. I don't necessarily believe that Pasta is live biased, he has never endorsed any game, nor has he stated his preference. He's been as harsh as many of the critics on these boards.

Why no 2k info on this site??

ok to end all this which one is better who cares get whatever game you want or get both thats what im doing so i can enjoy both
