First of all Ill say i was a Big 2k guy until I bought Live and saw the graphics and said to myself I dont care how this game plays It just looks so real... All the great player models are back and better than ever with more facial description... But they havent found an "average" difficulty its with way to easy 123-74 or you end up feeling like you are just trying to stay in the game but think its unrealistic you will win... 115-105 games. The Quickstrike works to well for the computer and not well enough for you... they will often blow right by you... Slow jumping when attempting to block sometimes u will block 3 straight shot with one guy and other times they will delay and give up an open look which WILL always go in on all-star and above Mikki Moore will hit open 15 footers all game a little un realistic but no one actually leaves people open in the NBA soo who knows... Oh and the biggest Bug of all!!!! FANTASY DRAFT! It will often take Yao Ming Twice in a row... He will only show up on one tema but the other team he was drafted on will end up without a 1st rounder... really frustrating...
Other than that its still the best looking basketball game there is...the graphics are second to none and announcing is as good as anyone... Oh and NBA 365 should update on Dynasty mode too and stay current like if lakers sign someone he should get singed in your dynasty league on the same day... If you havent played that far it should just go through when u get there kinda complicated but would be great option to have your own season on NBA live 09... I give it an 8... would have been a 9 if these bugs were worked out... maybe they will patch or something but for now its an 8...
the game is great, i am a faithful 2k series player but something told me this year to go for live, as i did in 05 for the gamecube version, and to tell you the truth, the game has improved in so many ways, the controls ... Read Full Review
