Cleveland Fag !AVztAjVxGg
I'd take this to /v/ but sports game threads get sage'd into oblivion over there.

I'm in the market to pick up an NBA game for my Xbox. I haven't gotten an NBA game in years so I am pretty unconnected with the series.

Reviews (metacritic) favor NBA 2K9, but NBA Live 09 is an alternative. Can I get a /sp/ opinion on both?

I hate the Celtics and the Spurs, so I will be sure the replace the box-art for both with King James of Cliff Lee or something.

Pic likely unrelated.

NBA 2K9 is better this year, and I have ALWAYS bought LIve. It sucks this year. I would explain further, but I am leaving for the Pats-Fins game. Go with 2K9.

I haven't bought either of the two since 06, but I've always liked the live franchise (probably because it's less technical and slower). The gameplay is usually much better in live, too.

I remember buying nba 2k5 and 2k6 after exclusively choosing live seemingly forever. I don't know why the switch and don't know why I bought it a second year after the previous blew dicks. I can't hit perimeter shots in 2k and I remember frequently blowing easy lay-ups.

Unless 2k was fixed, and things changed, I'd definitely go with the safe bet which would be nba live.
