dude i use to be a huge 2k9 fan .. The shot stick is the dumbest addition to that game so since 2k feels bad controls is what is cool. I'll avoid 2k sport games as a whole till they learn to make atleast a descent control scheme

You're expecting me to help you choose between a hockey game and a basketball game?

Just choose which sport you like better. Or if you bought the last year's iteration of one of these two games, get the other one this year.

I'd say NHL 09 .. it is an incredible game ..

If you are a hockey fan you will love the skill stick (Better than 08 ), the skating is more fluid, graphics much better, and the hitting is awesome .. up end so many players. Fighting of course still lacks .. two punch knock outs ..

Haven't played NBA 2k9 yet .. not a big Basketball fan though ..

The online Modes in 09 are sweet .. the Be a Pro online mode with your friends is real fun .. but the EA servers aren't always the best either .. offline though warrants a purchase of this game ..

Depends of you're a Baseball fan or not also .. because MLB 09 The Show is easily also one of the best sports games ..

You need at least two people to play against others .. you make a team, then head into your dressing room, then start a game and it will search other players for you. Sometimes you will play with 2 guys while you play 5 guys .. it's cool.

I don't know about the tournaments .. also they have your typical 1 on 1 .. where you can play as NHL teams ..

MLB 08 The Show is a great game but IMHO it still cannot compete with the perfection that was MVP 05. Well we all agree on one thing; NHL 09 is an incredible game.

Brought NHL 09 on launch and I am still playing it. The graphics are much better and once you master the learning curve it's a blast. To be a pro is awesome and holds your interest so you just want to play more. But these are two different sports games. It might boil down to which one holds your interest more. They both have coop so what do your friends like to play?
