this is the king of basketball games

i dont know what they changed but i felt it wasnt as responsive as last years.. calling plays changed and those new features could have been left out ...i think they should release new sports games every 2 years so that we actually see a change besides rosters and a few tweaks here and there...i mean this game is good but not worth 63$

Genki6070d ago

I've been saying this for a long time now, so needless to say, I agree wholeheartedly.

2 years of dev time = 1 alpha, 1 beta, 1 planning, etc. phases.

1 year = all those things twice in relation. 2 years of dev time would essentially be time and a half, and I think it would work out very well.

In all honesty, I'd settle for a roster update for ONE YEAR while the next iteration was still being worked on. That's what sports games are becoming anyway, and it's amazing that we continue to pay for that.

2k7 feels like a much better game. It was certainly more responsive than what they are giving us now. I feel like I have no control.

that's the beauty of footplanting... now u have to actually string together moves more precisely rather than twirlin the stick left and right and doing cross overs all over the place

nba 2k8 >>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>>& gt;>>> nba 2k7

I'm not buying sports titles anymore, unless there's a lull in other games.

The last sports title I bought was Madden '07, but I held off on buying this year's iteration. Madden '06 and '07 are the only sports titles I have and I've had my 360 since launch. I Also have WWESVR07, but I dunno if that can be considered sports. I'm also passing on WWESVR08.

Worldwide PS3 releases for the week of August 3rd

PS3Fanboy writes: "Slim pickings all around this week. The PS3 version of Monster Madness releases in America and the developers are keen to suggest that it's far better than the mediocre offering that was made to 360 players. 1Up had a look at it earlier this year and saw improvements, but there's still no telling whether it's actually good or not. Be sure to check out the demo on the PSN store before spending any money. Here's the full release list:"

US Games

* Monster Madness: Grave Danger

EU Games

No new releases

Asian Games

* NBA 2K8

NBA 2K8 Roster Update

IGN: NBA 2K8 has now been updated to address the flurry of trades and roster moves that have enveloped the NBA over the last six weeks. Starting with the Pau Gasol trade and culminating with the moves made at the trade deadline, the changes allow users to accurately play out the rest of the NBA season with stars like Shaquille O'Neal, Jason Kidd, and Mike Bibby in their new homes.

The update does not address post-trade deadline moves, such as Sam Cassell's buyout by the Clippers and acquisition by the Celtics.

Roster updates? Most be EAs NBA Live 2009

games4fun5894d ago

that right there makes me want to buy sport games made by 2k updating the roster is something all sports games should be doing (for free) i think i might buy the game now to show my support. And yet another reason that EA can stick it where the sun dont shine

Ace-Jury5893d ago

however i think ea's updates are constant,almost weekly whereas 2k8's last update was back in november........nk8 is a much better game though. i took live back and swapped it over for 2k8
