^ You are right. I played both demos and the Live demo is very slippery compared to 2K9. I could see playing Live against a friend on some run and gun straight fun factor stuff. But if I can only get one (and thats the case b/c I'm a broke medical student) it has got be NBA 2K9.

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here
Can anyone explain how the pick control works. I know that you press B on the 360 to get a pick set. Is there a way to tell your player to roll or pop?

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here
I'm pretty sure I flip these every time I explain it, but either way it's one or the other:
tapping O (B 360) does a fake pick, where the PF/C quickly sets a pick and rolls out of it regardless of you taking it or not. Holding it sets a pick where the guy will pop afterward. Just pressing it in like normal brings an average Quick P&R.Comment

Are the dribbling packages used the same way on the 360? with the left and right triggers or is it like College hoops with the B button?Comment

Man, I could shoot those leaners all day...
First game I played, I was taking ridiculous shots with Kobe, one of them didn't make contact with the rim, and the crowd started chanting "airbaaaall, airbaaaaall."Comment

In Live, I would pull the right stick to the side and my guy would just keep running straight lol. It was more responsive in Live 08, but at least they got rid of the "I do a spin move, so your defender has to slip and fall" thing. that got annoying real quick.Comment

Thank you VC for not putting this crack on the table any earlier. If this had come out at the same time the Live demo dropped, I'd be a mess right now.

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here
One thing I've found that's odd is that ray allen for example has a custom PA announcer thing where he says "ray ray" after allen makes a shot
Garnett who is on the cover doesn't have the pa guy say "K-G" like he does in the real celtics games. Not a big deal to me but the more specific things the better and it's the guy on the cover of all peopleComment
