NBA 2k8 Preview Thread

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

I really like how dynamic or variable players are rather than trading chips. My only concern are personality types. So basically if I have Ray Allen, Grant Hill, and Tim Duncan on the same team, they're not going to gel together because they're all laid-back and therefore, lazy? I hope this doesn't become a drawback where seeking personality types rather than players become more of an objective.

Looks fairly nice. This will definitely be much better than Live 08, but you are making it out to be like the best game ever or something. Far from perfect though, there are some crazy glitches like Jason Williams passing through people...

You can't say that a sports game will ever be the best game, because you can't compare sports games with a shooting game, right? But it probably will be the best sports game ever.

What the is this mixmakers you talking about? I get my source directly from the 2kforums. :D

Wade was open when Jason william passed the ball to him, that was a not necessary a smart play since time was up, but a logical play nonetheless.

Looks pretty amazing...until they start running and dribbling. Still looks like they're sliding on the court to me :roll:

I really hope they make a commentary overhaul in the next couple of years. It does start to grate on the nerves very early on.

The best part is that they were posted over a span of 10 minutes.

:lol:

I don't have time to nitpick little graphic details when I'll be playing the game from this distance:

Add motion to that freeze frame, and do you really think a 1mm difference in Chris Paul's nose size is going to determine how good a game is? As benji said: buncha graphic whores.
