Man I don’t know what is going on w/ the games this yr. but I’m just tired of defective technology. I had 2k8 and was so excited for 2K9. 2k9 is a great game, better than any other basketball game that is out there. But the online and off-line issue just kill the game. I can’t play a single game (online or offline) where the 2k camera doesn’t lag. Or when I just try to do on the fly sub. or coaching changes…it freezes. It makes the game unplayable. At first I thought it was just my copy. I’ve exchanged 2k9 3 times now, and played it on 3 other Xbox 360s and the same issues. I just hope that they fix it and don’t think that its just an online issue. No, its a whole game issue. A lot of the forums have just been saying that they are just seeing problems online, and thats mos def not the case. its Online…and Offline. I’m just tired and frustrated w/ the game and want the issues fixed.

[quote comment="41105"]i returned nba to gamestop today claiming it was defective and they game a nba live in its plastic wrap i went to another gamestop and exchanged the new sulfien wraped nba live for 2k9 and 2k9 has won me over dont get me wrong live is a good game but 2k out shines live in certain aspects first the gameplay animations r so smooth in 2k while live animation are so stiff and clunky live has better graphics but 2k has better atmosphere i just wish 2k had some thing similiar to the freestyle control with right stick cause i’m so used to lives control scheme but 2k is the ish[/quote]

You can actually change your controller settings in 2K9, I think it’s the alternate C option, & you can use the right stick for you dribbling moves. 2K actually gives you options on the way you can play.

[quote comment="40902"]I actually liked the 2K demo this year better than the Live demo. I’ve always thought Live was more fun, but was quite impressed with the 2K game and am leaning towards picking it up. Live is more fluid, but 2K has a lot of cool little touches, and my sports gaming buddy said he liked 2K better this year as well.

BUT all the 2K lovin Live haters leave a bad taste in my mouth. It’s like by buying 2K I’ll be joining the gang of arrogant, spiteful douchebags I see all over the internet. What is it about the 2K basketball game that makes everybody so vitriolic?[/quote]

Did you say “Live is more fluid than 2K”? Haha! Man what Live are you playing? Please let us know because I want to get it! Lol!
