5.0 out of 5 stars Kool Game with Just a couple Problems, January 26, 2009

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: NBA Live 09 (Video Game)

I LOVE this game. The franchise is really fun and they made my lakers REALLY good. LOL. The Graphics are amazing and the game overall is just FUN. There are a couple of minor problems. Problem 1- The players movements arnt always realistic. Problem 2- There is no carrer mode, I think. If you have to chose between This and NBA 2K9 or NBA 09 The inside, get this its worth the extra $10 from NBA 2K9

This review is from: NBA Live 09 (Video Game)

I hired this out of the video store today, hoping to see a worthy competitor to NBA 2K10 for the old PS2. Sadly, apart from the choice of international teams and the World Championship, I cannot say this game is any good. The graphics are terrible, NBA 2K10 is far brighter and crisp. Also, the game has no fluidity, it's jerky and the controls are clumsy. Although we are now in a PS3/XBOX360/Wii era, there is still no excuse for jerkiness in games in the older PS2. Just compare the graphics in this game to some of the PS2 Madden games, and even NBA 2K10 and you realise they could've made a vastly superior game if they'd been bothered. If you want a decent updated NBA game for the PS2, go for NBA 2K10 instead, it is much better. I'm so glad I didn't go and buy this game

This review is from: NBA Live 09 (Video Game)

I've had 2 NBA Live games prior to owning the '09 version. Not a whole lot has changed from year to year besides roster updates and a few more changes in the playing options. I found this version to be the most difficult (on the most difficult level only), but I'm not completely sold on it yet. Fun game overall, and you get what you expect with an EA Sports B-Ball game.
