Atlsportfanz Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 It's a little low but not too bad based on the rest of the ratings. Is Ray Allen really 3 points better? And does Tony Parker deserve to be a 90 in comparison? Doesn't matter to me since I'm gettting 2k9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruJerz Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Live fell off years ago..2k is better. but Live always rates low...only LeBron, Kobe, Iverson, Howard and those big name players are in the 90s. everyone else like JJ and even Melo are in the 80s..stupid huh? lol get 2k9..it looks really good!!!

mattlanta Posted October 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 I will get 2k9. I was just saying how terrible of a game Live is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlsportfanz Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 I'd always been a live fan until last year I decided to try 2k9 and loved it. It like every sports game got a little redundant after playing it a thousand times but it is still enjoyable. I can't wait for the new one to come out. I'll have my basketball fix until the real season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAM Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Overall ratings are almost irrelevant. I'm sure JJ will play somewhat acurately on the court, regardless of overall rating. I have the demos for both Live and 2K and have plaed both avidly for a looooooong time. Both games this year a very enjoyable. 2K is a heavily simulation based game that depicts the players extremley well on the court. For a basketball nut like myself, this simulation accuracy makes the game enjoyable, along with the accurate broadcast style presentation. NBA Live plays very differently. The animations are reasonably solid, but very generic and don't differentiate the players as individuals so mch which is dissapointing. The gameplay mechanics and controls are quite fun though, and is probably better to just pick up and play against a friend. Like every year, I will get both games and enjoy them. Maybe not for everyone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunar Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 i rented live and 2k9, but i ended up buying live. speaking of ratings, on live josh smith is a 79, but that's because they put his natural position at SF. if you move his natural position to PF, he becomes an 82.

I'm guessing Diesel was not invited on board as a consultant to the NBA Live Ratings Team when they made up the Hawks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
