NBA Live 09 Quickstrike and Lockdown Video

by
Posted August 28th, 2008 at 9:24 pm

IGN has a interview and video with NBA Live 09 producer Jeff Antwi on two of the new features to the game this year in Quickstrike Ball Handling and Lockdown Defense.

Back at the community event I struggled to find much success with quickstrike but felt that lockdown defense was a very valuable addition by adding motivation to play good defense as it could be rewarded.

You can find both of them here or watch the video here by continuing on.

Leave your thoughts on the video and features in the comments!

    I wish 2k had a better fastbreak game even if I turn up the fb setting all the way up 2 100 it doesn’t feel right. Whatever happened 2 a solid 2 on 1 executed properly. I wish most players didn’t have the same floater or runner when U push LS back on the controller. I would like 2 have more sig moves that U have controll over. They can use the same idea but when U push LS back Players do the move U want them 2. 4 example chris paul gets in the lane then U push back on LS with the turbo held down and he will try 2 dunk on some1 with 1 hand, without turbo he will do his little sig floater. Every player should have a couple of sig moves U have controll of. I hate not knowing what move Im going 2 do in the lane when its not a dunk. 2k is still the better game( not by much ) but both have their issues. If ANY1 agrees please let me know. I will be buying both this year. Even though they both have issues I think they both will be solid bball games.

    2 on 2, 2 on 1, 3 on 1 fast breaks…..to really see that in a video game just makes me want to play basketball again, but I’m “retired”.

    1 of the reasons I’m buying live 09 is for the FIBA teams. Some of U R going 2 hate me 4 saying this but I found myself rooting for spain 2 win the gold. I guess the whole underdog thing took controll of me. I really believe if kobe wasnt on the team they would have lost that game and I know d wade was ON that game but I dont think that would be enough. Even though USA dominated the whole olypics that 1 game gave every1 hope again. U cant forget spain didnt have calderon who is a bad ass. I do know USA would win a series against any1 but 1 game eliminations against good players U never know.

    Yeah I like the idea of FIBA, but the US is too dominant to use on NBA Live if you ask me against other teams.

    all EA does is fill their games with features that don’t work. i’m a big online player and I know EA’s server will suck. i played 10 games of Madden online and got disconnected 8 out of the 10. Ridiculous. 2k all the way.

    Padre,

    I’m not one to tell people how to run their blogs…….. but you really should consider blocking this sdot character. This guy is ruining your blog. It’s one thing to have an opinion but it’s another thing to just be completely ignorant and ruin the experience for all who participate in your blog.

    I’m sure if you took a vote you’d have an answer as to how many people would like to see him/her gone.

    Last year on Online Team Play and Versus, it was smooth, never experienced any lag. I’ll give EA credit for that, 10 separate users and the game was as smooth as offline play.

    Well….. I think it’s realistic to say these blacks can happen, maybe not as often as other locations on the court.

    Oh wow, it is rare, when producers are so desperetly advertising a game, pros would be more creditable.

    At least I know now, why the Live series got a so bad player-movement system, probably the producers made the motion capturing…
