    Re: NBA Live 09 Gameplay Video (Gametrailers)

    CPU transistion defense... where is it? that has nothing to do with the way these guys were playing and everything to do with the AI of teammates and the CPU team. everyone seems to guard just the man their designated to and not switch?

    far too many fastbreak dunks when there are opponents in that vicinity to do something.

    also before EVERY game cutscene, there is alot of warping and glitching:


    lasts not even half a second but it was in the other nba live vid and is in this one.

    moments later its back to where it should be
    .. its like they start the replays before the players are fully rendered.. not a good look:


    this game needs a mature ratings asap

      Hopefully they fix that before it goes gold.

        Ehhhhhh, ummmm idk. It seems to me that almost every dunk/layup has jerkiness to it. I saw that with the big men, dunks are the only ones that look smooth, but when Kobe or Iggy throw it down, it's jerky.

          Looks ok.

          One thing that bugs me, and EA does this in a lot of their sports games, is that the crowd/bench/baselines are running at a MUCH lower frame rate than the actual players/coaches/mascots/refs are. It just looks bad (to me at least), especially when you're bringing the ball up court at a reasonable pace, or on free throws or replays.

              Game looks good; Much better than last year. Dunks were being forced up with proper hand as well.

              Sadly, the pump fake sliding bug looks to be in effect here, over from 2k.

                Yeah I noticed that too when i was watching the Pick and Roll video on IGN...Haywood's dunk was very smooth while Iggy's dunk was jerky. At first I thought the flashier the dunk/layup means more jerkiness to that animation but after seeing how jerky that simple Kobe dunk was caused me to think differently.

                I think the dunks would be alot better if they reworked the takeoffs. Once the player is in the air the dunks are not that bad...could be better but still not that bad. Its just the funny looking takeoffs that ruin the whole dunk. The layups need to be redone completely....but thats just my opinion.

                  Dunks and layups look better than last year, although as evidenced by the Kobe dunk, there still are going to be some awkward moments in the game. Overall, though, the game looks more polished and smoother than it was in last year's game. Glad that a ton of animations are in.

                  Wish that the gameplay videos would showcase teams running set plays, because I think that is one of the areas that NBA Live '09 has shown improvement over Live '08, but most of the people playing in the videos we've seen just like to drive at will to the basket which does the strategic part of the game no justice.

                    The graphics and lighting seem drastically improved as do the animations and general smoothness/flow of the game.

                    The ball physics still seem to be off though, it was tough to tell though because there were only a few missed shots in the vid. That Kobe FT was a ******* line drive though.

                    This actually gives me hope that NCAA Basketball 09 will be a playable game.

                      Hey guys, I'd like you to keep in mind (if you choose of course) that this was filmed at our EA SPORTS Studio Showcase last week. I was not there (and Chase can speak to it of course), but usually at conventions or media events like this, people are in a line and go one after the other. I'm sure Chase made no substitutions and if he was with one of our producers demoing (don't know if he was or not), then they are going through new things with the game and not really playing in the context of a true representation of NBA basketball.

                      I could be wrong here, but I just wanted to put some background behind this.

                      I'm talking to our production team right now, and we're going to try and get some gameplay with the two of them. Remember, now that code has been sent out as well, you'll start to see videos like this as well.
