Platinum Czar Battleground - NBA Live 09 vs. NBA 2K9: Round 3

[bronco92]

With the introductory rounds out of the way, Czar tackles gameplay head-on. In this episode Czar looks at the rebounding and passing systems in both NBA Live 09 and NBA 2K9.

This is another incredibly in depth analysis of both games that any basketball gamer needs to see.

I definitely agree with this. Nice video.

This is turning into a blowout for 2K9. Not even close so far!

[HAILAS]

I thought live would have pulled even by now. at this rate, if we've already entered into a hypothetical 3rd quarter, this could be game. Teams that can't refoucs after the half, tend to lose.
Great vid at any rate. Really showing some true colors.
With the videos exposing a lot of pitfalls, does this actually keep any gamers from continuing the play?

[Da_Czar]

Hailas I think its turning into something simular to boxing rounds rather than basketball qtrs. At first I was going for the qtrs but they would be WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to long for an internet show.

@newgen Live has things it does well we just haven't gotten to too many of them yet...

Nicely done video. I love the Czar. He is knowlegable and has the Mr. Cool voice.

[newgen1]

Cool Czar... looking forward to your upcoming videos!

[Steve_OS]

Thanks Mrs. Czar!

As usual, great work Czar - I am only hoping both EA and 2K watch these and remedy issues you perfectly pinpoint in your videos. EA especially, there are some absolutely cheap things going on under the hood in there last game....

[amedawg00]

another gem by the CZAR. This guy needs to be a consultant for video game bball developers....his bball knowledge is peerless; put him on the payroll 2K!

Not that it really matters, 2k definately won with the rebounding, but I thought I'd point out that Live does have a manual box out. I'm not sure how it compares, but it was mentioned as a positive in 2k's rebounding and not mentioned for Live.

[Teebone21]

live will lose every catetory. hope they can get back on top this year

Only a blind moron would think Live was anywere close to 2K. If only the blind EA fanboys could actually realize all the good stuff in 2K, but I guess a EA logo is all they need to be "OMG, It´s amazing! I can´t believe it!!"..... fools

This is my favorite original content on Operation Sports by far. Keep it up Czar, I love the work you put into it.

Some day someone will have to do some experiment - filming some 2K gameplay - but with EA's layouts and logos. Of coursre, it will have to be a brand new trailer, so no one has seen it yet to know the truth. That should be interesting (sure, legally it's problematic, but just for the experiment...).
