NBA Live 09 Gameplay Video (Youtube)

that looks horrible

I liked the video, but I would like to see more missed/made shot variations for jump shots. In all of the Live '09 videos, it has been dominantly brick or swish.

As Seth said in Superbad when referencing vaginas by themselves, "Ehhh not for me."

These last few videos have convinced me. I'll still play the demo, just in case, but going from these videos, Live won't be getting my money.

- Spacing is a problem

- Iso-Motion is easy to pull off if you spend like 30 minutes in practice mode.

- You'll get more control this year, but animations??? You're looking at Live and complaining about 2K animations?

- Have you seen the crap caused by the separate layup and jump shot buttons in Live? Well, at least it should be fixed in Live 09, but there's nothing wrong with how its handled in 2K.

I think he was talking about the lack of control he has on some animations not the way the players animate.

I agree with this.....it's a little too generic. It needs a little more variety.

That dunk at around 2:39 looked reaaly good. I wish all the dunks animated that well

NBA Live's lack of many signature shots is what bothers me most.
