Why don't people understand that pushing back a release date only works for one year?

After that first year you go right back to the same amount of time to put the game together than you had in years past.

2K NEVER claimed that their "Living Rosters" would be updated daily. Meanwhile EA's main selling point is the "Freash Made Daily" 365 roster updates.....which is now turning out to be one big LIE.

Had EA's slogan been "Fresh Made Weekly"....then this would be a non issue.

EA is really dropping the ball on this one and taking another hit in the "trust" department AGAIN.

2 steps forward.....3 steps back.

did you read somewhere where I stated that 2k would update the rosters daily?? I thought the whole purpose of "Living Rosters" and having the 2k insider was to have the Rosters be accurate?? The rosters are FAR from accurate, thats why Rashidi and Nogsters rosters are so widely downloaded/popular...

You gotta read my man.. It's 3 steps backward because the "Made fresh Daily" is not fresh 1 week into the season?? come on guy...

Im done debating.. I love this game... lol... we have 2 excellent titles this year and i'm loving it.. Basketball gaming heaven... HOLLA...

Exactly... call it "made fresh weekly"... or " made fresh,but will are still working on a few things so we are just gonna release half of the feature" excuses in my book

You know Im glad that this is the only thing that you guys have to complain about... Because we could be complaining that this game is total garbage, like 08, 07 and 06 were in my opinion...

The game plays great. EA's "Fresh Made Daily" PROPAGANDA is a joke.

I'm still baffled how they continue to run those 90 second commercials, yet that feature (aka their main selling point) is not even working cortectly.

Un-fricken-believable!

I don't want to hear about any damn "kinks" or "we're getting used to this new feature -- be patient" nonsense. They should have ironed out the kinks and resolved the roster issues well before the 365 feature started. I'm sick and tired of companies making lame EXCUSES for their unfinished, untested products. If this crap is not resolved within a few days....not only am I selling my copy of Live 09, I will NEVER purchase another NBA Live game ever game. And this coming from someone who has purchased every EA/Live game dating back to Lakers v Celtics. SHAME ON YOU EA!!!!

lakers vs. celtics bulls vs. lakers ah those where the days!!! jordan's reverse was the move of all moves...lol
