Basically, you'll always have accurate rosters and stats. If a player gets traded or injured, your rosters will reflect that change. Rosters will be updated in real-time according to the real NBA season. The biggest addition this year, and the most advertised, is the online updating component. NBA Live 09 does some great things, and these positives should not be overlooked. Don't get me wrong, Live 09 is certainly an improvement and a step in the right direction, but it's just not quite there yet. The control scheme is slightly awkward, the AI is sketchy, and the pace of the game is seemly not optimal. There are some great additions to this game, but the actual gameplay does not do enough to set this game apart as the standard for basketball games this year. NBA Live looks to steal back that crown this year with some slick new features, controls, and gameplay. In recent years, however, the clear king of the virtual court has been 2K Sports’ NBA 2K series. Dating back to fantastic titles like NBA Live '95, it has been fun, fast, and entertaining. But once you've learned what number corresponds to what key, you'll be fine, and it's worth persevering as 2K have slammed a 360 windmill dunk into the face of EA Sports with this game.The NBA Live series is the virtual baller that has been around longer than any other series. For example, when using a keyboard for control, buttons are still labelled as if they were on a controller, which is sloppy.
NBA 2K9 is all about working the basketball and manoeuvring the defence to create open shots, just like in a real game.Īll in all, PC fans of the sport should thank their lucky stars 2K Sports have decided to finally bring the game over from consoles, although the port hasn't been carried out as well as we'd have liked. If you don't play a proper game of basketball, you'll lose - it's as simple as that. Tumbling to the hardwood and glassrattling dunks made special by their scarcity. The in-game action feels physical, with powerful blocks sending players It looks gorgeous too when moving (screenshots don't do it justice at all) and the whole TV-style presentation is brilliantly done. NBA 2K9 is as close as it is currently possible to get to playing a real game of basketball without wearing oversized clown trainers and stretching yourself on a rack until you're 7ft tall. The fact EA have decided not to bother releasing a carbon-copy version of last year's game is the icing on the cake for 2I< Sports, who arrive without any competition to plug-the alley oop-shaped hole in the market. Despite a number of console port-related issues (a lot of which are to do with the controls) you've managed to piss all over the combined efforts of at least three years-worth of NBA Live games on the PC.
