    Times have changed my son, get you a nice HDTV and connect your pc to it and get a xbox 360 usb wired gamepad to use on your pc and you can make xbox 360 ports to the pc look LOADS better if you got the pc power to raise up AA to 16x and AF to 16x and of course run it at 60fps at an insane resolution..something the consoles cant touch.. although im more of a console gamer..i must stick up for the pc when people say such things..the pc now days with vista and MS's Games For Windows Campaign has REALLY made pc gaming ALOT better these days... no, its still not as good as console gaming on a 360 or ps3 but its better then it has been in the past..thats for sure.

    By the way....Crysis on my pc in my living room's HDTV is the best looking game i've ever saw..wow.

    Although im sporting a EVGA 9800GX2 1gb vidcard and a QX9650 OC'[email protected] with 4gb DDR 3 ram..connecting my pc to my living room hdtv with my home theater surround sound setup being utilized by my pc is the best thing since sliced bread

      I'm happy you're having fun with your PC, that's all the counts. But for me console is the way. Don't want to deal with all those installations, system requirements, upgrading my system etc. Just want to put the game in my console and play. As for your PC, it's amazing now, but in 2 years it'll be an average PC and later on you'll have to upgrdae again in order to play on max. Nothing you can do about it. A console lasts usually 6-7 years while PC lasts 2 years (in order to play on max). If I have a next-gen game I want to play it on max. But again, that's just me.

          I'll give you a tip: never pay attention to the minimum system requirements. Always consider recommended requirements as the default. For me, upgrading my PC is a waste of money, but everyone has his own opinion. I'm not telling anyone here what they should do, I'm just giving my opinion. I'm happy for guys here who'll be able to enjoy the game on their PC.

                Re: NBA 2K9 Confirmed For PC

                youvalss, I hear ya. There was a time when I didn't care what PCs had to offer, the gaming experience just wasn't the same and never could be. Now, I have a gaming PC and consoles, and in a way I still feel the same way. I choose PCs for strategy games and first person shooters, and consoles just seem to play better with sports, racing, and platform games.

                However, I don't have my PC hooked up to a big HDTV, so I can't compare there, I also don't have my consoles hooked to a TV, but rather my computer monitor for the resolution. In a way, they've kind of become one machine for me now and I just go between them for what game I'm playing.

                I'm totally excited for NBA 2K9. I have it preordered for the PS3, but I think I'll hold off for the PC version. My gut tells me that the playing experience will be better on consoles than PCs (even though my comp is beyond good enough). I've never seen a sports game run on a PC like they do on consoles, so I'm hoping this one will be the first to do that for me.

                Anyway, PCs and Consoles are apples and oranges. It's better to have both, but some people prefer the different flavors. I like both and try to keep it that way.

                  may have been mentioned already...but according to the 2kshop listing of this title, a valid Steam account is required

                    wtf? I have the Witcher on steam and you can play steam games without internet, once you have them on hard-drive, you just go off-line. I don't get it, the box version requires a steam account, what is 2k up to.

                      I think ill pass on the PC version now. Some really good features are missing but the fact that they went the Steam route instead of GFW Live route just turns me off. 2K, you must understand that sports games are sold more on consoles so it would be a big plus to have the PC version compatible with a console and the 360 IS THE SPORTS GAME CONSOLE by the masses this gen... to play and communicate with those many friends on XBOX 360 while we play the PC version would be a BIG plus. Please add this to this version next year.

                        Apparently 2k9 is coming out for the Wii too, I was at Gamestop and there was a NBA 2k9 box art there and it had a list of the systems it was coming out for. It had PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Wii on there....
