Lol man I think he was refering to earlier than the ps3 version because theres no earlier time the demo can drop because they update XBLA every thursday...

It was weird becuase i don't recall that happening with anyone else. seemed really out of place to my eyes so i am assuming it was only him. It is does exhist with other players I just didn't notice it. But in my mind it was not an issue with anyone other than Yao. Further gameplay will let us know for certain. The second part about visual distinction I will have to look for when i get the game to be certain.

Thanks for the info. I hope that is an aspect of the game that has been fixed or atleast has improved. It would be nice to have even the shorter athletic high leaping players like DWade be effective rebounding and blocking shots in the game as he is in real life.

What up Czar. First and foremost, congrats on your little man!!! I usually don't post over here on this board, you know I am down wit them boys from off the hill (2k). But after reading your write up, I went from zero interest, to about 25% interest in Live. Great job, baby!! Keep doing your thing.

Thanks Czar, I really appreciate a real basketball fans perspective. The actual game play sounds exciting to get into.

I know I am going to get slammed here, but I really appreciate the TLC that EA has given to the franchise this year. I have been a fan of LIVE before it was 5 on 5, back when EA put out DR. J vs. Bird. I have really tried to like the last few years, so it is nice to know that they have stepped up their game. I wish it was the 10th...Actually the 6th of OCtober.

I heard somewhere that microsoft pays extra money to get things earlier than sony. That's what happened with the 2k draft combine.

Well that and Live Gold members pay $50 per year for that service... MS probably had to pull some strings to make that happen with demos, etc., but it does make sense. One of the added benefits of being a Gold member.
