    Graphics

    I've heard this game ismuch better than Live, but the graphics aren't as good as Live's. Are they atleast playable (graphics)? Are they close to Live's?

    Nah I have both games and 2k has better graphics live they used to much color, but is more sharper, face wise its hit and miss imo between the two. That was last year when live 08 had better grapics the 2k8.

      2k9 has impressive graphics. IMO more realistic than Live's. 2k stepped there game up this year when it comes to graphics and player models.

          That does not look better than NBA Live 09 I'm sorry! It's look cartoon like (animated)

                Can't we just say graphics are purely subjective at this level of sophistication?

                Graphics have far exceeded my visions as a youth.

                  I have both, and personally, I give the nod to 2K9.

                  Although I don't like 2K's models, I feel Live's models need more work. Too skinny, and have this "plastic" feel to them.

                  Don't want to turn this into a 2K vs EA thing, but I can say that you won't be disappointed with 2K9's graphics.

                      I give the nod to 2k. Although Live has better itself from last years version, it's still cartoonish in gameplay as players still walk a little stiff. U won't be dissapointed with 2k.

                            As far as details 2k gets the nod, as far a graphics engine and graphics EA gets the nod. When you can tell the difference between details and graphics then you can make the decision.

                            The subject was graphics. EA's graphics engine is superior to 2ksports.

                            Problem is the artist as EA are not using it to the full potential. 2k's graphics engine is outdated and is cartoon like. But they are able to squeeze so much out of it in details from facial structures too little shoe details. But overall it's still not all that great anymore.

                            I give them credit for what they are able to put out with what they have.

                            As far as the guy mentioning animations and blah blah....

                            The subject is Graphics, not animations.

                            Animation wise, 2ksports wins on a land slide.

                            As far as gameplay! I'm sorry but this season thanks to EA's DNA and their foot planting technology, even with less animations. It plays a hell of a lot better than 2k9 and in my own opinion a lot more sim, this season!

                            And I live by my word, I can enjoy them both for what they offer and yes I am unbias, I call it like I see it.

                            So before you try to call me out in a post and get your forum rocks off, thinking it's cool to highlight me.

                            Understand I'm bigger than that, and I can judge something based on facts not fanboyism!
