announcement**

Why all the mystery? Seems the commercial Garnett is shooting is for a secret new mode in NBA 2K9, the same game that also features KG on its cover.

"It's a reverse fantasy league," Garnett explains. Seems KG, Derrick Rose, Monta Ellis and a few other NBA stars are going to draft online gamers to see whose team can accumulate the best 2K9 stats and the commercial Garnett is shooting shows some of his real-life best friends from what he calls his Official Block Family begging to be on his squad.

Only thing is, if they are going to air the footage I saw, it's going to sound like "Beep, beep, beep. No you can't be on my beeping team you bleepity bleep."

Let's just say, Garnett and his friends had a great time filming the ad.

(Possible leak of 2K's announement)

[quote comment="36579"]ok i love how when i look at nba 2k9 posts people are talking madden and as far as 2k goes live might hve them beat this year[/quote]

its because after reading this post its clear that 2k pays attention to detail and presentation... unlike the hype machine EA which adds like 3 new features and hypes them up in a game... I'm not a 2k fanboy im just a disgruntled EA fan that is sick and tired of Madden, if 2k was allowed to make NFL games i gaurantee that they would have refs and a sideline crew along with every jersey combination and tatoos for players. Also 2k would have throwing (like in AP football) and running styles so brandon jacobs doesnt run EXACTLY like reggie bush. Its just 2ks attention to GAMEPLAY that upsets us when we hear that EA has the exclusive NFL license because madden hasnt stepped up since 2ks been out of the picture,

[quote comment="36572"]You 2k fan boys are so dam ignorant how can pasta gave out info on a game that's barely given out any info. Do you want him to make up stuff so you idiots can feel good. Blame 2k sports for horrible marketing and get a life. and plz don't waste your time and come back calling me a EA fanboy I play games for there quality not for the company that makes it idiots.[/quote]
[quote comment="36547"][quote comment="36482"]lol yea waste ur money. pasta hasnt written anything cause he probably hasnt seen anything just wait when they start giving vids he'll make a review[/quote]

lol you clearly are an EA fanboy because if you appreciated a game for its qualilty you would be hyped about 2k9 and wouldnt moan and bitch like a little girl about people gettin antsy about the game...

@ JR dat seems 2 B

1 thing we both hav N common we both call it how we see it


even wen we C it Diff

[quote comment="36595"]woa woa woa what big announcement are we talkin bout here guys[/quote]

woa woa woa what big announcement are we talkin bout here guys

sdot and JR on the same page when it comes to Pasta? This is a first.

2K's BIG ANNOUCEMENT is COMIN OUT 2MORROW at GSPOT 1ST

damn you can have jordan in here???!!! I hope he actually looks like himself in here instead of those weird CAPS that people make....


and guys i played live yesterday and it was amazing as hell! i hope to god 2k will be betta cuz ill hate to admit that live was betta

wow ths sounds great

ok i love how when i look at nba 2k9 posts people are talking madden and as far as 2k goes live might hve them beat this year

YES YES F___ YOU 2

Sdot shut the hell up seriously and go back to finish 1st grade because of the way you write.

SERIOUSLY whether or NOT PP is PRO EA or NOT really DOESN'T factor N2
N e thing cuz from I've READ he seems 2 B unbiased when expressin his opinions his feelins on games both EA & others

itz NOT like he's been sayin LIVE is way betta dan 2K or N e thing so I think 4 da MOST part he's on da same pg as me so I respect wut he sez

You 2k fan boys are so dam ignorant how can pasta gave out info on a game that's barely given out any info. Do you want him to make up stuff so you idiots can feel good. Blame 2k sports for horrible marketing and get a life. and plz don't waste your time and come back calling me a EA fanboy I play games for there quality not for the company that makes it idiots.

Seriously, Pasta has posted vids and news on 2K whenever 2K releases information. Last year 2K was tight lipped as well until the final month. Prize Fighter, APF, TOPSPIN...Pasta has given coverage to 2K games. We don't know where his biased lays, and it's not evident on this forum. Yes EA has him part of their community day events, why doesn't 2K?

Where are the 2K community events at? What about 2K news? Every time 2K has released something, Pasta has been there to release it. So once again, how is Pasta an EA guy?

And if Pasta is an EA guy in your books, what are you doing on this site if your a 2K guy? Shouldn't you be in the 2K boards? Must mean your a EA guy right? See how dumb that sounds? Just a dumb as these accusations.

FAm U WILDN KIDD SPOT on


he sed so himself

Jason Kidd looks like a alien.

True but at the same time Pasta has an alliance with NBA Live. It's probably killing him to even post this info about 2K. Pasta never really posts info about 2K. He didn't last year either. He probably just posted this to keep some credibility on his site so that he doesn't come off as a Live fanboy.[/quote]

True dat..

We live in America and I'm free to express myself if I feel the need. If I feel like pointing out your ignorance then that's my right.

So are you telling me not to comment on anything you post on here? That's funny because I could actually make out what you were trying to say in your last post.

I'm not gossiping, I'm just telling it how I see it and I see ignorance.

Oh yeah 2k all the way.

No one can understand what you type, sdot. And the picture of your tiny roid-rod next to every comment is lame.

"Not enough to impress me im buying live this year that live demo was nice. There DNA feature is killing 2ks nobody wants to play wit jordan he retired and they still have no info out."

LMAO ROFL LOL... that's it that's all I have to say...

I played Live 07 and was gonna buy 08 but my friend was like "Man, you gotta get 2k8, it's the best b-ball game ever."

So I did and I got hooked. I am PISSED that 2k dropped its College Hoops franchise but, what the heck, 2k9 will still be a spectacular game even with made-up rookies.

[quote comment="36511"][quote comment="36509"]Sorry but to put your loyatlty in a one company is idiotic, we all know for every good game both 2k and EA make theres a bad game right behind them, The good Fifa 08, NHL 08, and Tiger woods the bad Madden 08 and Live 08, 2k goods NBA 2k8, college hoops the bad mlb 2k8, prizefigher and nhl 2k8.

If your going to get NBA 2k9 go ahead stop turning this into NBA 2k9 vrs LIve, NBA 2k9 gonna destroy Live, 2k 4 life?? Straight up corny its just a damm game.
I get all my game sfree so I'm definatly getting both[/quote]

THANK YOU......the voice of reason!

Agreed w/everything you said. All I want is a review of both and I'll get the best one reviewed so I don't have to waste time renting 2 games. I'm just worried that 2k isn't showing any media for a reason-[/quote]

No need to worry my brotha..2K did the same thing last year. They didn't show any gameplay vids until like 2 weeks before release. Live has to pump their game up as much as possible to make up for their gameplay flaws. 2K lets puts their money into gameplay not advirtising. I know it sucks because we all want gameplay vids to compare games but 2K will always deliver when it comes to basketball believe that!

Objectivity is overrated when it comes to comparing these two franchises. While Pasta may play the cerebral impartial judge concerning these two series, its obvious that 2K is the dominant force in basketball video for a while now. The only way they wouldve been supplanted would have been the NBA ala the NFL, seeking an exclusive license, at which, EA would have jumped at quicker than a fat kid downing a twinkie, due to their financial advantage. Unlike most people, I like this "guerrilla marketing" tactic being used by 2K, as it is building up the anticipation to unprecendented levels in the annals of sports video game history. REMEMBER FAM, A PURCHASE OF LIVE 09 is a synonomous with A VOTE FOR JOHN MCSAME; it's just counter to rational thought given the evidence that you the voter/purchaser has in front of you as to which is the better product/candidate. WE DONT BELIEVE YOU EA, YOU NEED MORE PEOPLE!!!

DAMN Y iz it dat people i'm NOT talkin 2 keep talkin bout me ???? I swear itz a bunch of GOSSIP GURLZ on dis SITE

sdot = reason why Dave Chapelle is famous(let it marinate).... I think for people that enjoy a sim experience 2k is the choice, and if you're into more of an arcade type of game then live is it. I happen to like 2k after being an EA "fanboy"(lol) since the early 90's. Pasta got me all amped for live this year then I played the demo and was royally disappointed.

I hope the association online is the big 2k announcement. please,please,please

GREAT preview!

I cant wait to check out the presentation during the championship.

The presentation seemed solid in the Live demo...I liked you could replay the previous play by pressing the "LT"...I haven't played Live in YEARS!!!...I couldn't really take it seriously once I picked up 2K7...It was just clear to me that it was superior (not saying it didnt have flaws because no game is ABSOLUTELY perfect...people will always find something wrong) but Ive been much more pleased with 2K's Basketball as a whole...even the College Hoops which has now dissolved was better than March Madness...IMO. I might rent Live but 2K has turned into Madden for me in that I will buy it without seeing any media really. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion and likes and dislikes but 2K's gameplay trumps Live....without even going to graphics, signature style, etc. The DNA feature is cool and all but mostly only for rosters...if Kobe is in a slump...doesnt mean I need him to be in my Franchise.

fam keep sayin he's NOT gonna RESPOND 2 meden he RESPONDS 2me

R U a H0M0sapien

graphics looks crazy good and player models look almost exactly like their counterparts. the crowd also looks awesome unlike EA crowds where almost everyone wears the same colors and does the same thing.
