Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
NBA LIVE 09 is back. It rewrites the book on authenticity and connectivity - but is still accessible enough for new users. Dynamic DNA emulates - with absolute precision - an NBA player in every sense of the word. NBA LIVE 365 takes the statistical data of Dynamic DNA and brings it to life. Just like the real NBA game, players get injured, free agents sign late, great players go cold and no-names break through.

Player DNA Progression - see the progress and changes to any player's DNA after an NBA LIVE 365 update Player Tendencies - the percentage a player drives left, right or shoots from each spot on the floor Lockdown Control - risk reward system FIBA Expanded - compete in an international tournament using authentic FIBA rosters and a choice of 24 teams Pick and Roll Control - control both the ball handler and the screener 5 vs. 5 Online Team Play - All 10 players on the court can now be controlled by users on 10 different consoles around the world Signature Playcalling - pushes on-court visualization to guide you through the play Online Leagues 2.0 - Create your own league with drafting, trades and a custom playoff format NBA Academy - hone your skills Create your own highlight reel then upload it to EA SPORTS World Quickstrike AnkleBreakers - Force your defender to step up and guess what you'll do next



Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars not really an improvement over 08   October 15, 2008
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Yes the jump shots are more realistic looking than in '08, as are the end of game stats across the board. The computer seems smarter, and the addition of a simple alley oop move is a big plus. FIBA and WNBA teams are accounted for.

However, on the downside, the "diving for a steal" move is bothersome, as is the bland look of the on-court game and the unbelievable ease with which one can commit a turnover. One more bad thing - I've found myself many times stealing the ball or grabbing a rebound only to find my player shooting the ball across the court before I can think about a single dribble.

I miss the many team jersey options 08. Maybe these are unlockables?

I happened to notice that only some of the commentary by the announcers is new; most is recycled. It's more polished in the sense that their observations are more accurate for situations such as steals, out-of-bounds deflections, and so forth.

Will the game grow on me? Probably. Should they make another version for '10? Definitely. But only if it looks graphically more like the XBox versions, incorporates the new Dynamic DNA feature.

I still plan on playing this when I need a break from Madden '09 and Wii Fit. So not a loss. But it didn't shine any holy blue light on my video game adventures either.
