ps2, ps3, xbox, 360, pc, currentgen, nextgen, blah blah blah...... tsinoys can find a way!!!

OMG! It would be so sweet if the PC version will be with next-gen grahpics

Not gonna happen...
Let's hope that we'll get some "next-gen gameplay" at least (a.k.a. none of the bugs and usual nonsense).

some sig shots would be nice..and hopefully with the current gen graphics they'll 2x the resolution back to 06 style, jerseys and such

Sun Jul 08, 2007 8:24 am

YEah!

If Live 08 is not Next gen! PLEASE EA! Just release game with nice PC textures!!! :?

IMO, if Live 08 for PC "current gen" show jersey textures like old NBA Live´s (mininum 512x512) and little move in shorts! would be great for me!

That would be great

Does anyone know if the PC has the new features like 'quick strike ball handling', 'hot spots', 'own the paint' and 'signature moves'?

Sun Jul 08, 2007 6:31 pm

No info about the PC version has been released but I did ask about it at the event and hope to have some answers soon as far as the features that have made their way into the PC version this year. I would suggest that Gamespot's media section for NBA Live 08 is misleading/sharing content across all platforms as all indications are that the PC version will not be ported from the Xbox 360/PS3 version.

Great find.

EDIT:Wait a minute...this is hot spots...and for 360/PS3.

Wed Jul 11, 2007 3:37 pm

EA continues with RIDICULOUS respect about us! :? :? :?

No info about PC version....AGAIN... :?

Wed Jul 11, 2007 3:50 pm

As discussed once or twice in this thread, the PC version is not a priority since it's ported from the PS2 version, so the lack of information at this point is not surprising. I'm hoping to get some more info on the PC version soon, as soon as I do I'll be sure to post it.

Direct x 10 for windows xp: The Alky Project, google is your friend, there's already an alpha out.

Microsoft is all about money, that's why xbox 360 has a 30-35% chance of breaking with the red ring of death, and 90% of the consoles go bad after the warranty expires.

That's why windows is only safe if you don't use the internet ;)

That's why microsoft isnt making dx10 for xp, because they want you to buy vista, even though nothing has changed in vista except the UI, and they renamed My Computer.

It honestly can't be that hard to port dx10 to XP, like the Alky Project, vista and xp are nearly identical except for the GUI, despite what they say about vista being built from the ground up, they said the same thing about XP but it's not.

I don't think most people will be able to compile that though...

A bit more was changed than that...but the reason they aren't making DX10 on XP is true.

However, DX10 is not needed at all for a Xbox 360 port...look at Prey and Call of Duty 2 for example. Also look at tonight's announcement: Gears of War port for XP. (And Cliffy B's indication that GFWLive will no longer be Vista exclusive...)

Maybe EA wants to surprise us that we will have next gen graphics :D :D

??? Halo 2 only runs on vista!

You can run it on XP though. All the game does is check if you're running Vista, people have created a hack that tells it "yes, I'm running Vista" on XP.

Thu Jul 12, 2007 2:15 pm

I reckon the PC version is gonna pretty much look the same as the Wii.

Thu Jul 12, 2007 4:35 pm

basketaballfreak, if it will - i'm gonna wright a letter to the Russian EA office with the "fu** u bad ass bitch**" words 4 sure!

Thu Jul 12, 2007 5:11 pm

Well, you should probably send it to EA Canada, as they're making the game. And you should type it up now so you can work on a few drafts before it releases.

Thu Jul 12, 2007 9:21 pm

I still have faith for a next-gen version because of the next-gen videos on the PC section at gamespot.

Fri Jul 13, 2007 9:05 am

The PC version is not Next Gen, as confirmed by the guys at the NBA Live 08 community day.

Fri Jul 13, 2007 12:01 pm

Both gamespot and EA should die.. :evil:

Sick and tired of recycled Live 05 game coming out every year :shake:

Fri Jul 13, 2007 12:08 pm

I don't like it much either as I'm traditionally a PC player when it comes to Live but it's been established that the PC market is not the priority so it's not really a surprise.

Fri Jul 13, 2007 12:15 pm

does anyone know if i will be able to run it? in 07 i had everything right on except i could just not enable lighting
