8.0 tops for me. Both games scored about even this year, both in the 8 range.

Too many online issues and same ol same ol in 2K9.

Everyone has a slightly different experience. Overall I think this was a fair review with a lot of good information. My personal experience is that the action on the floor is improved and I'm glad to see the presentation creeping back into 2K sports. My only gripes are that the resoluation on the courts was consistent in 2K8 and fades out too quickly in 2K9. The team names on the baseline fade out at the top of the arch and become blurry when in 2K8 I could still read them all the way down under the far basket. I'd love to see CH 2K8 come back too. NBA 2K will never feel like as much of a complete experience until I can draft a guy I coached in college into the pros again.

It's an exceptional game. I agree with the 9 score although it's probably closer to an 8.5 until they fix some of the bugs and framerates issues with certain camera angles, online problems and tune up the gameplay a bit. IT's difficult to realistic stats with the shooting percentages the way they are, and also assists dont seem to be counted right. If a patch comes out that addresses these things than it's a 9.

WHERE ARE OUR LOBBIES? We can't even filter out all these damn Kobe/LeBron cheesers without lobbies! Sure, 2K is better than Live again, but at this point that's like saying chocolate tastes better than broccoli. LOOK WE KNOW THAT ALREADY. Instead of lauding 2K for beating the mentally challenged, overweight kid with one arm and a stumpy leg in dodgeball, why not CRITIQUE 2K for squandering its own potential with this messy, unfinished, buggy P.O.S. they've released this year?

2k is God on this Site....you wasting time and someone will prolly bash for it.
