NBA 09: The Inside Demo Available

by
Posted September 25th, 2008 at 7:14 pm

The demo for NBA 09: The Inside is now available on PSN. It has four quarters but each is only one minute long (ugh) with the Celtics vs Lakers on veteran difficulty. An interesting aspect of the demo is you can go through create-a-player (some of which is locked however) and then place him on one of the teams to play with. Keep in mind the player will be practically useless though due to low ratings until leveling him up. Apparently I missed the way to try out The Life mode, which is what really differentiates this game from the other two NBA titles. I’ll have a look at that side of the demo tomorrow.

So far from playing through it’s a little better than I had expected. Some things about it feel pretty good about it but at the same time I’ve come across a few odd things also. I’ll save further thoughts for a write-up down the road. But with the story mode I’m starting to think this is a game that may be worth giving a shot.

Continue on to view a video of the demo and leave any thoughts in the comments.

    Come on kids play nice.

    Although I agree if you want people to see your point and agree with you, you need to articulate your words and make some sense. Trings, you just brought it up the wrong way.

    This isn’t an english class though. You do have the option not to read sdots own version of english.

    Me personally, I think sdot is always angry or something when he post comments with all of the CAPS and short hand stuff.

    I don’t think him wanting to be gangsta have anything to do with how he types. Let him be. If you can’t read it then move on like the rest of us. I think its ok for him to have a “Signature” style on how he writes. I just don’t hope sdot does this in school or else. What is our school system coming to.

    not in this particular post hes not, but if you frequent this site you know exactly how often he posts about being hard. for example:

    sdot on September 23rd, 2008 3:09 pm Quote…

    do U wanna piece of me he’s a BOY

    hows that not being hard? thats what he does. and if its his job, than act like a professional, dont threaten people and type like a human being. i understand using internet slang, but most of his words are complete jibberish. he makes the comments section completely unreadable and annoying.

    you’re entitled to your opinion and that’s cool if you think i’m wrong, but i know i’m certainly not the only one who feels this way.[/quote]

    Trings I hear what you’re saying but at the same time if you don’t like what he posts then just don’t read it. I’m not here to take sides but this going back & forth with each other is played out. This is a sports video game site. One thing that we all have in common is that we all like SPORTS VIDEO GAMES. We’re all from different parts of the globe. Different ages, races, backgrounds, etc…I agree that it’s pretty sad if someone has to get on a Video game site and act tough but why let it bother you. I like coming to this site because for one it makes time go by when I’m @ work (yea I get to sit in front of a computer all day lol) & I like hearing peoples feedback, but it’s getting out of hand with the arguing about petty stuff. Everybody is different, some are mature & some aren’t. If that’s how Sdot chooses to express himself then so be it. But at the end of the day if you don’t like what somebody says just ignore it.

    I’m not really sure if he negative stuff is holding down black culture but you just have to let people be themselves. I see these things all day at work and school and I just let it fly I don’t say anything about it.(Im one of those proper people). I don’t let the so called “ghetto” ways influence how I judge people. If people want to look like a fool let them. That applies to all races.

    If you don’t like it ignore it. Thats what I always live by. I will never say anything then it’ll cause a big uproar like now. Just learn how to cope with all the different types of people.
