-looks like they didn't fix the player models
- the jersey streching looks dumb
- look at the jersey collar on that gasol screenshot..wtf??

It's fairly pathetic that some people get so caught up in video games that they lash out and cry in public like buttons did up there.

sad man... pretty sad

this is enough of this nba live B.S. Every single year. Thats why i've been getting NBA 2K ever since 2k2.

EAsports is a disgrace and 2k9 is gonna destroy it again like it has for the last 6 years. LMFAO. These screens have looked the same since NBA Live 06.

Whats the point in saying anything then if you're just gonna bash the game? Some people happen to like Live.

Yeah, that stretching makes Kobe's jersey look totally messed-up. Pau is Satan, apparently.

But yeah, these are obviously early shots and I'll definitely be giving this game the benefit of the doubt now that Mike Wang in involved... The motion and animation was my main issue with Live, so these do nothing to quell that fear. But yeah, some of the faces (Pau) look nice.

shots look nice but thats already expected after seeing last years graphics.... the jersey stretching does look bad... but this is probably a early build... im more concerned with motion and animations like ''stumble'' posted above!

Don't understand why people post "Live 09 is gonna suck" its a few screen shots for gods sake!!! look at the first lot of pics 2k8 came out with... it looked like CP3 was a wax figure.. lets see some videos, you can tell EA did this because the 2k9 cover is coming out tomorrow

agreed...
