Great Basketball Game:
I totally enjoy playing this nba game. It has very good graphics and awesome game play. One the main features I like is the nba live 365. It automatically downloads data daily from the servers to update your game with changes in the nba. These changes include trades, injuries and how the teams and players are performing. This game comes with one year free of the nba live 365 service. If you love playing basketball on the xbox 360 I would recommend this game without a doubt. I got it for a little less than... more info
WORST B-BALL GAME EVER:
I buy NBA Live every year, and have always been very satisfied with it, always preferring it over 2K. This year's version, however, is a serious disappointment.

Way better that NBA 2K9!:
I first purchased NBA 2K9 and the game was good but they really messed up the online play from last year. I think they did a horrible job. I traded the game in for NBA Live 09 and I have to say I was not disappointed. I actually think the game is better than NBA 2K9. The graphics are good and the game is way more fun. I have to say I haven't bought a NBA Live game since NBA Live 05 so I wasn't a fan for a few years. NBA 2K9 made me go back to NBA Live 09. I am happy I did. The Live 365 feature is really... more info
