It's out today. Can't wait to pick up my copy. If anyone wants to start a league, I'm game. My XBL ID is morello05.

Obviously you are getting 2k8, but I'm struggling to decide if I should get Live, 2k8 or NBA 08. Anyone want to help me out here?

You a graphics whore or is gameplay more important?

Live>2k in graphics
2k murders live in gameplay

I got it on the way to work today. I should be on later tonight, but you will probably double me up. I haven't played a bball game since PS1, and I'll also be using the Bobcats [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

There really is no comparison, IMO. the 2k series actually requires to you play defense and you can't dunk every play. It just feels and plays like a real nba game, much more so than live.

Haha, on NBA 2K6 it was the exact opposite of this until about a week before we shipped to Microsoft. Glad we that one cleared up!

The funny thing is, you CAN dunk everyplay against people who play Live or try to use Live strategy. None of em know how to play D lol and leave all their starters in with like 50 energy.

I gotta pick this one up but I'm still on Halo so it may have to wait a week unless there is some crazy new element that I just have to try right away.

Is the league hosted online or do we have to do the calculations?

I got it last night. I haven't put it down yet. Dunk contest is just as fun as it has been in the past few years. The new "hot areas" is kind of cool, but if you put Lebron in his hot zone he hits every shot.
