Portable Domination

P.J. Snavely: NBA '08 for the PSP is our fourth iteration of basketball on the handheld platform. Over the past three versions, we've always tried to be on the leading edge of combining simulation NBA basketball with some new and innovative ideas in the genre – things that would be fun and different to play. Personally, I find it very frustrating when developers bring an identical version of a sports game to the PSP, so we've gone out of our way to ensure that NBA '08 is significantly different than its PS2/PS3 brethren.

PJSnavely6057d ago

Its really a two-fold purpose on the title. The mode (Conquest) is all about dominating the country, one basketball city at a time. That's the main focus...the other purpose is that I think our PSP basketball is the best one out there. =) Keep reading and posting, devs are always reading the comments!

EA Sports NBA Live 09 Simulation Predicts Lakers Will Win 2008 NBA Finals

EA SPORTS NBA LIVE 09 has predicted that the Lakers will capture their 15th NBA Championship by defeating the Celtics in the 2008 NBA Finals simulation. In a historic match-up that was last seen 21 years ago, the series lived up to its billing in a seven game thriller. It was NBA Finals MVP Kobe Bryant who led the charge, averaging 29 points and 6 assists per game throughout the series. With this victory, Phil Jackson set a new record by winning 10 NBA Championships as a coach. The Finals tip off this Thursday at 9PM EST on ABC.

They must have been playing online and the Lakers were losing and pulled their internet wire out of the system. Boston got the loss and a DNF%. GOOOOOO EA!

Another blow to PC gaming, bye - bye.

Andreiy5862d ago

Since when people play sport games on the pc? pc are created for rpg's and shooters, bye bye

Drekken5862d ago

GOOD. Maybe now they will concentrate on releasing a game without the stupid slowdown and bugs. Its always fun when you are beating someone and they yank the cable and you receive a loss and DNF. EA ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!!!!

Its embarrassing to admit, but I bought a bunch of EA games in the past year and have ALWAYS been an EA Sports fan. But recently they are really horrible and its amazing how fast a company can turn off loyal gamers.

Monchichi0255862d ago

Why are they the only ones saved from the garbage called EA Sports!! Save the consoles too!!! Get rid of EA!

Palodios5862d ago

I didn't hear about the madden news. What happened to their exclusive agreement with the NFL that said that their games had to come out on all platforms (which I assumed included the personal computer)?
