Yesterday videos from NBA 2K9 showed off the Oklahoma City Thunder’s home white uniforms that aren’t scheduled to be revealed until tomorrow. While those videos have been removed from the website which put them out they did make their way to Youtube with the first quarter here and second quarter here.
Now the NBA has actually done the same thing only with NBA Live 09. NBA.com has a screenshot preview of the season featuring images from Live 09, one of which is a Kevin Durant dunk as seen above.
While the official jerseys are shipping with 2K9 they are not in Live. The jerseys will be added for Live on release day through a patch or free downloadable content (it is unclear which way it will be delivered).

NBA 2k9 = best basketball game ever.
September 28, 2008 at 9:26 am
EA sports and their patches….tisk tisk tisk
September 28, 2008 at 9:28 am
wow, i thought EA would have the sense to not have patches for the simple stuff
just another reason to buy 2k9…
&& pasta plzzzzzzz put up bulls vs miami (cpu) asap
thanks a lot man
September 28, 2008 at 9:35 am
lol, first their name was leaked, then their logo, no the jersey. They can’t keep anything a secret can they?
September 28, 2008 at 9:56 am
the opening presentation for 2K looks pretty sweet…though when they put the announcers on the court with mics, they always end up looking creepy…
September 28, 2008 at 9:58 am
You know it upsets me now because if they can patch that then now I know that they can put jerseys in a sports title… and the lack of jerseys in ncaa is annoying along with some missing jerseys in madden, so why dont they put out a patch to add jerseys to those games???… or would that “prevent” from working on 2010, I didnt buy madden this year but I have Ncaa and I hate watching the games on saturday and hoping on it and playing the game without the correct jerseys
September 28, 2008 at 10:02 am
Yeah they can patch in things like jerseys or offer them as downloadable content in other games too. Its just a priority thing I suppose.
September 28, 2008 at 10:06 am
well…at least they aren’t charging us for additional jerseys like they were a couple of years ago for madden on the 360…
September 28, 2008 at 10:32 am
EA NEVER charged us to have the extra jerseys in Madden or NCAA for 07 when they did that. I know because I remember downloading them all.
September 28, 2008 at 11:03 am
What difference does it make if EA has the jerseys in the game or the jerseys are added in a patch when you first turn on the game?
I am not an EA fanboy but it is remarkable how perception dominates. Yes, EA has implemented patches to fix things post-release of a few games. However, 2K’s offerings aren’t perfect and they have released very few patches to fix any of the annoyances in its products….MLB series sucks…

NBA 2k9 = NBA 2k8
September 28, 2008 at 11:25 am
Skihawks, if You believe or not, thousands of LIVE players can not enjoy the new OCT jersey, as they (including me) do not have live account, as many countries here in Europe do not have MS Live support.
I think patches are good things, but in the last 10 years for the PC version of NBA Live only the fans made the patches, updates to make the game a little bit more enjoyable, not EA.
September 28, 2008 at 11:27 am
NBA 2k8 = NBA LIVE 09
September 28, 2008 at 11:29 am
You guys make it seem this patch is for game play…It’s for the jersey and the court…It’s not EA’s fault that they have to patch it…It is the NBA’s fault….They keep everything under wraps that by the time they announced the name and jersey it was to late to put it in the game…
September 28, 2008 at 11:51 am
Pasta, any word yet on when NHL09 is gonna unlock some of their teams’ 3rd jerseys??? I know my Sabres, and others, have already unveiled theirs to the public…so who are we waiting on?

September 28, 2008 at 12:30 pm
Pasta I know you cant wait for these two games to comeout so this fanboy stuff will finally end, I personally find it rediculous and childish.
September 28, 2008 at 12:46 pm
Sdot…
I don’t know how 2K got it in…I mean when the NBA announced the name and jersey the game was already done…Maybe 2K got the jersey leaked to them…
September 28, 2008 at 1:27 pm
2k got the jerseys because the nba send it 2 them
September 28, 2008 at 1:51 pm

Let me clarify. NBA 2k7=best basketball game ever until……..
NBA 2k8=best basketball game ever until……….
NBA 2k9=best basketball game ever.
FACT, not fiction, not opinion, no reason to waste time arguing about it.
September 28, 2008 at 2:30 pm
@ Dr Logic, I doubt NBA 2k9 will be the best ever. It is not the end of the line. It only gets better. So that is FICTION
September 28, 2008 at 3:57 pm
my friend works @ gamestop, anyway of getting it earlier????
September 28, 2008 at 4:52 pm
no chance atleast not from gamestop.
September 28, 2008 at 4:53 pm
I got Madden a week early……..we have a store here in New York that sometimes, somehow gets stuff early….but I seriously doubt it work this time.
By the way…………Buffalo 4-0
New England 2-1
New York 2-2
Miami 1-2
