Don't know which NBA game to purchase this week? Well, read the preview of all three NBA games coming to the PS3 this week.
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
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.
Boston needs to win to increase their # of championships to 2 more than the lakers.
Lakers = Yankees of the NBA
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!
After announcing last week that Madden would no longer be made for the PC, EA Sports has now stated that NBA Live has been canceled for the PC as well.
Since when people play sport games on the pc? pc are created for rpg's and shooters, bye bye
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.
Why are they the only ones saved from the garbage called EA Sports!! Save the consoles too!!! Get rid of EA!
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)?
I Download all the NBA demo on my PS3 and to be honest I dont like any of them.
The graphic on all 3 of the NBA games looks amazing but the gameplay is not, that pretty much sums up about the my opinion. I hope developers stop making 1 NBA game each year; instead they should make 1 per 3 or 4 years and improve the game quality.
the frequency. When you look at how devlopment time is only getting longer coupled with most of the best games taking sometimes between 24-36 months, it makes sense.
Also agree
NBA 2k8 no doubt will be my purchase
I just bought sega's 2k8 from amazon and i got it based on their previous success of being the best bball game to get. After playing the three demos I was not happy with any of them, but I needed a NBA sim. I did enjoy NBA live the most, but I figured since sega will bring all there past features to 2k8 Live will be stripped down compared to that because it looks like Live is using a new engine which I thought was more realistic than 2k8, but Live doesn't seem as deep because EA is obviously try to fix all the problems and making the new engine. Live getting a 6.5 from EGM which is a solid score and I hope Live gets better scores than 2k8 next year because clearly the visuals on live are better. Sega does make a solid game every year but they can't seem to take it to the next level because I think we can all agree all the players don't look like they do in real live. Devin Harris literally looks like Paul Pierce in 2K8.
