NBA Live 09 Official Site Brings Details
EA Sports launched the official site for NBA Live 09 today and with it came a few details on their next NBA offering. Line Producer, Brian Ullrich, has a blog with information on the new NBA Academy, QuickStrike Ankle-breakers, Pick and Roll Control, and Signature Play Calling. He also mentioned the inclusion of a new cloth simulation in NBA Live 09 that I expect will melt your faces. Perhaps it won’t be that dramatic but it should be interesting to see nontheless.
“It’s a huge new practice facility where you can shoot around with your teammates, work on your game, and play skill-based games to get better and learn how to use all the new gameplay features,” Brian said when speaking about NBA Academy.
I know I might be in the minority of people who actually prefer NBA Live to NBA 2K but oh well. It’s my party and I can prefer Live if I want to. Head over and keep up to date with other producers on Live 09 at the official site. I hope they make Dirk unstoppable!

if it doesn’t melt my face… I’m not buying it… lol
but seriously, it’ll probably melt chocolate considering that it’s 105 degrees here in Southern California… I hate this weather…

I seen the trailer and it looks good although I don’t think that was actual gameplay. I’ma give them this last year, if they don’t do anything with 09 Im through will Live. I use to be like Deac and only play live but after 06 and 07 I had enough, it just wasn’t doing it for me. I probably wouldn’t have played 08 if I wouldn’t have won it from Deac.

finally! someone else who prefers LIVE over 2K…personally i hate 2K Sports all together but if EA finally buys 2K, yes it would be a complete domination of sports that will break the space time continuem (sp?)…maybe not that far, but amazinger games anyway. i didnt buy LIVE 08 because i thought it would be like 07, which i didnt like, but then i rented it and found it to be amazing.
