NBA Academy: Part Four

by pastapadre
Posted October 3rd, 2008 at 7:36 am

All the drills in the NBA Academy of NBA Live 09 are valuable but ultimately they are preparation for the full practices where you can take what you’ve learned and try and refine those skills without having to play a regular game to improve. It is even better when considering all the Academy drills including the practices with your team are available within dynasty mode and it offers a way for those who want to work on refining their team’s playbooks and tailoring it to their players.

I’m not sure why but I was defaulted to controlling the second team instead of the starters. There must be a way to choose which side you control but it didn’t jump out at me. Continue on to check out the 5 on 5 full court, 5 on 5 half court, and 5 on 0 half court practices.

EGM Review Scores:

NBA Live 09 – B
Good: Daily roster updates
Bad: Way too many blocks

NBA 2K9 – A-
Good: 5-on-5 online games
Bad: Complicated controls

——————

Any news on Facebreaker sales…? Also what about this 20$ DNA for x360. Lets say you Live 09 new and get a RROD, now you gotta spend another 60$ for a feature you already paid for, for a new x360 console. The code shold be applied to GAMERTAGS, not 1 and done use.

Sales numbers don’t come out until the 2nd Thursday of the month.

As to those reviews I find it odd they’d complain about blocked shots. I get blocked when I take a poor shot. It isn’t like they’re blocking everything inside, or blocking shots that they shouldn’t have a chance at. On the defensive end I block some occasionally but since there is such a delay in response I’m usually jumping through the air way too late.

I believe the 365 is tied to the hard drive so that shouldn’t be a worry.

Fernandez was just added in the update that came out yesterday. Starting PG for the Blazers. You see me controlling Blake because I was running with the second teamers.
