2K vs. Live 
Posted on August 22, 2009 at 06:11 PM.
This is a short blog about NBA 2K and NBA Live. I wish we all can stop dueling each other about who is better and who makes the best NBA game. I'm a big fan of 2K and played there games for a long time, some of my favorites are NBA 2K5, NBA 2k8, and NBA 2K9 and soon NBA 2K10 with the Draft Combie but I'm also fan of Live to. They both bring different things to the table that we can all spend time to enjoy and love. I wish we can stop bashing each other about this, you cand see or ask a person who played 2K and then played Live or a person who played Live and then played 2K. the battle isn't getting anywhere so lets just lay it to rest. Thank you.

I'm a big 2K fan love to play the games. To me like 2k more then Live (not knocking Live) want the whole to stop because start competing and then they start comparing

I agree people should stop comparing the 2 games... i just realized that when i read your blog.. because if you read some of my posts you'll see i bashed on live a lot.. but both games have some good to em... i think if your a hardcore basketball fan you buy NBA 2k10 but if your a casual fan you buy NBA live... i prefer 2k cause it has more realism to it in my oppinion..

2k is better, just look at the reviews and sales, they don't lie

I don't know why this is a discussion, 2k is better than live, but EA makes the best hockey (NHL 09 )and soccer (Fifa) game, Sony's MLB 09 is the best baseball game. It not a debate thats just how it is

2k's Q&A was somewhat impressive. I will probably, when it comes down to it, buy both games. But, I would really like for Live to be successfull. The thing is I love the freestyle control. Always have. I think their going in the right direction with their presentation, but their graphics reign supreem.

I really am forced to play 2k cause all my friends have given up on Live even though I try to sway them to come back to Live every year it seems like. Their like yeah, yeah...heard it before. Gameplay this gameplay that. So maybe this year they'll come arround. I'll own both if they don't. (I also own a PS3 and a 360). So I'll grab 2K on one system and Live on the other so I don't get confused when I switch out. The different feel of the controllers should help with that.

Ya see, my crib is a video gamers heaven. I have a 52' Sony XBR4 that I play on and incredible surround sound by Bose. So I'm entertaining a lot. So we'll have to wait and see how things play out.
The videos that have been put out have helped. They like what the have seen and so do I.

The way it plays is another story. September 10 is about 3 weeks away. So keep them vids coming cause it's impressing the masses over here in the city that Jordan built!

I'm a fan of both. Last year I had a tough time. I first purchased Live, then traded in 2K9 again for Live, and then....traded in 2K9 for Live.

I guess my problem was that there were things that I liked about both titles. Neither completely did it for me, for I stopped playing Live by December. This year...I'm going to make my decision based off of which Demo I prefer the most. To me, last year, the demos were very well representations of the final product. Of course not to a Tee, but for the most part - the overall feel and direction was transparent through the demos.

Lol coolkid123 i bet you are like 13 years old thats why you like live because it is mostly arcade style huh.2k will always be better at basketball games and if 2k had the lisence for football it would be better then madden too .
