Pasta Padre Live 09 OTP Club
by 
*Update: While we were able to get in our club lobby the game couldn’t find an opponent to connect to. This is likely due to the server issues being experienced right now. We’ll try again tomorrow at the same time.
With NBA Live 09 now available we can begin to fill up the Pasta Padre Online Team Play Club (Xbox 360). After how successful OTP was last year it has gotten even better in 09 with the addition of clubs and ranked games, tracking of individual stats, and being graded on individual performance by position.
If you are interested in being a part of the club leave your gamertag in the comments and I will send out invites. In order for me to send an invite you must have played Live 09 otherwise the invite attempt will fail. So please only post your gamertag once you have played. Invites are accepted through the Player HUB.
*For those of you on the PS3 a PP club is being set up in partnership with NCAA Strategies. Leave your PSN name in the comments to be invited*
I was forced to pick a team for the club though it appears I can change this at any time. We’ll find out if we are locked into that team (currently Portland) or if we can select the team at the start of each club game. Otherwise I’ll have to change the team on a regular basis since it would be boring to play with the same one all the time.
Tonight will be the first get together but club games can be played at any time. As long as at least three club members are involved the games will count into the rankings. Meet in the club lobby beginning at 5PT/8ET. I’m looking forward to playing at least a handful of games and I will be recording at least one of them to post up on the site later in the evening or Wednesday morning.

October 7, 2008 at 4:26 pm
ok
hey sdot
on nba 2k9
when you edit players (i hope you can) eg ratings, and accesories
when you change there accesories,
will their shoes stay (white > for home games) >>> and (black for away games)
coz last year, when i edited players shoes, they had white shoes away?!?
and sometimes they had the colour shoes?!? away?!? it was weird.
in other words.
when we edit players this year on nba 2k9
will their shoes be unaffected by the change?
thanks
Liam
October 7, 2008 at 4:37 pm
dis year in 2K9 U can Give any player any SHOE so no need 2 worry bout da glitch from last year
brands U can choose from are Nike Jordan Adidas
U give a player a pair kix & get 2 select da color
no reeboks / converse cuz dey tried 2 charge 2K to use dem dis yr but itz coo
October 7, 2008 at 4:45 pm
so if we say.. give greg oden a pair of red/white nike’s
the red/white nike’s will show at home games
and the black/red nike’s will apear at away games??
in other words
no one will have colour shoes away unless we make them.
eg. detroit pistons have white shoes away.
plz answer
just try it
give a player a pair of colour shoes, and see if they are black away…. and colour at home
this is all helping me decide
thanks
Liam
October 7, 2008 at 4:46 pm
and can we give generic shoes
to those who have branded shoes anyway??
eg kobe, ray allen, and tim duncan??
this would be great
thanks again
Liam
October 7, 2008 at 4:54 pm
da way it works as afr as I can tell using ur Greg Oden ex
he would wear wht & red kix @ home
& den da wht would turn in to blk away so it would be blk & red
basically wht shoe teams like da pistons da mavs it stays da same 4 BOTh home & away it teams dat wear Black away turn Black
yea U can give guys who wear Nikes or Jordans ie Kobe CP3 Melo generics if u WANT
October 7, 2008 at 4:57 pm
cheers again, and 1 last thing mate..
can we edit accessories in dystany mode in nba 2k9
(although it aint called dystany mode)
but still
thanks again
Liam
October 7, 2008 at 5:00 pm
so if we wanted.. we could turn miami heat
into colour shoes home and away?
coz they have black shoes home & away anyway. so if i wanted, i could make EVERYONE’S shoes colour instead of black, home and away?
and it would work?
thanks again

So I purchased NBA 2k9 and the online team play is pretty weak… You get randomly thrown into a game, with random people, on a random team, at a random position. I have always been loyal to the NBA 2k series, but after playing about 50 online club games in NHL 09, I’m excited to start a club for NBA Live 09. Anyone else not digging on the 2k this year? Has EA REALLY stepped up to the plate this year?
