NBA 09 The Inside is an improvement over last year's game on the PS3, but it is not a big enough improvement for recommend it over NBA 2K9 or even NBA Live 2009. Maybe next year, with some changes to the shooting system, upgrades to animation, and more, this one could really shine.

Would Crispy Gamer play this game for more than an hour? No.
Why? They don't have the head for technically sound, five-person basketball. They would rather just push people over and put up massive dunks.
With a token nod to the role-playing as athlete mode most sports titles are including these days, The Inside's version, "The Life," is shallow and lifeless and, thus, not worth living through.
