NBA Live Synergy Interview

Posted September 18th, 2008 at 1:51 pm

IGN conducted thorough interview with Garrick Barr the CEO and founder of Synergy Sports Technology. This is the company that provides a massive amount of data to NBA teams and now will be streaming that data to NBA Live on a daily basis beginning this year and beyond. The interview goes into great detail on what the company does and how that will enhance the experience for those who play Live. You can check out the interview here.

Also an update on the NBA Live 09 demo for the PS3 as Sony did not post the demo today in their weekly update. So now the release is expected to be next Thursday. Bummer for those who haven’t been able to try it out on a 360 as there are still no demos for any of the basketball games on the PS3 side.

Shot blocking is back and the lead passes get deflected in traffic by the A.I.

Tristate killa

Yea I just said all that but there were some really cool animations and the crowd acts so realistic

Tristate killa

It was on Gamespot show called On The Spot....they were interviewing developers from 2k and showing the rockets vs. the hornets

Tristate killa

NBA 2k9 looks more like NBA 2K 8.5

[quote comment="36844"]Also theres too much sliding and warping but they did improve the lead pass cheese and alley oops look much more realistic[/quote]

EA submitted the demo at the same time to both companies...a shame that Sony holds back this demo....I mean, its not like they have an exclusive basketball game of their on that console....

I love it when innovation meets gaming. I believe they have a 3 year contract. I hope next year they include this on the defensive end as well.
