NBA 2K8 on GameSpot's On The Spot (9-13-08)

[xianpauLXP]

damn!

[QuickSilva12]

this is just bullshit, but good fuck it

[Carnage27018]

did anyone notice HOW MANY SHOTS THEY MISSED....

the only problem with 2k is that they miss the easiest shots ever.

[Callie11]

well i saw them misses the easiest shots but they just suck

[Nino033]

yeah man i go mad when players like iverson miss easy layups on FAST BREAK... alone

[asimkhan2007]

Time to upgrade. Sell your PS2 or Xbox or Gamecube to Gamestop and then sel all your games.After that buy an xbox 360. This is what i did you should too.

[QuickSilva12]

WHY DOES THIS GAME SUCK BALLS??

[galarius]

You lick ass Quicksilva

[QuickSilva12]

FUCK U FAGGIT

[jpaso87]

cuz u do

[jazwelter]

In real NBA basketball the players walk the ball up and have no heart. In 2K8, the players are actually happy to make $ to play a sport. GREAT GAME !

[marcus2443]

can u edit home and away shoes on the players?on live 08 u cant even edit the asscessories but its locked. i when im using the suns on the road and steve nash is wearing white shoes what the hell.

[giannakis24]

why xbox doesnt have nba 2k8??

[JuniorM60]

because nobody owns an xbox anymore get a 360 stop being cheap ive got two

[madweather32]

why dosent ps2 version

 have slam dunk contest?

[asimkhan2007]

u wasted 30 $ on a ps2 version?

[madweather32]

I Havent Bought A Ps3 Or A Xbox 360 YET

[CSeyoum]

can u change players stats on this jont though..cause i mean sum niggaz suck...and them states unrealistic as a mug...especialy rookie...

[rob2011r]

Live's graphics may look better in a still pic but live's animation is dreadful!!

[kgv21]

i have played the demo version of 2k8 and live 08. Live looks more real in graphics but i like the gameplay of 2k8 much better.

[QuickSilva12]

im not wasteing 'my' money on this

[415tmac]

the game play is so smooth, way better than live

[rob2011r]

How can it be "over-animated" seoulc? The more animations the better... It makes it far more realistic.

[kidgame86]

i just downloaded nba 2k8 demo for both ps3 and xbox360 and i notice that xbox360 graphics are much better lookin

[seoulc]

It looks kinda sketchy and over animated but its still gonna be the ish!!! I cant wait to see those signature shots. Love those from k7! Fell in love with Peja Skoyakovic's jumper. But its not for the regular Xbox? Bullcrap.

[MIMIOMAR]

dam that game looks good!

[simpleblueplan]

i have Nba 2k2 fOR GAMECUBE

[asimkhan2007]

who cares?

[lebowski19]

Did anyone notice though that the guy playing the game maybe made 4 shots out of 20?

[DBrookdaking]

ive been playin the demo over and over the shit hot they step they shit up how live takes one step a year its like 2k took 12 cuz they have nba live graphic now that all they need and ole boy with the hair from the cav has his fro not like 2k8 and i hope u can change play shoes now

[DBrookdaking]

oh i played nba live's demo 2 not bad it plays alot better but still has a was to go 2k fans wont like it graphic are nice gameplay is smoother but im a 2k fan now

[JamesyBoyRox]

live owns this

[pali2704]

This game looks so real ! Too bad it's not for PC ... :(

[bballer515]

ya the ps2

[shogenkilja]

this game looks awesome, better graphics, movements in my opinion than live and this is coming from a live fan but I think I'm going to get 2k this time, only thing is getting used to 2k controls.

[cruxe]

yeah same here

[dilligardcrews]

good gameplay but graphics r not as good as live, if it were, EA would have to quit makin live

[flightkobe24]

and 1 more thing the crowd all make the same sound same as last years nuthin improved but live 08 is on top of everything

[ThaGeNeCySt]

thats completely false... the crowd in nba 2k7 was very bland.. the crowd is louder in 2k8 than last years and react way differently... when the spurs go on an 8-0 run they are VERY loud and you see them ALL standing on their feet and when the cavs bring the ball up, they BOO and cheer even louder if the cavs miss or get blocked, etc

[flightkobe24]

fuck 2k8 is ugly nba live 08 will own this shit i just cant wait till like january all u ppl will get bored of 2k because its so lame and retarded and blurry and once the game starts the players are so sweaty it looks like they just finished swimming and "2gay8" improved only by fixing the net....and 2k8 players like duncan lebron and shaq r like bears theyre soooo fat and fake

[FilmTheNoob]

Wow im getting this game, and you know why?

it has a simple backbored layup! 2k7 doesnt use backboards.

Fuck Live they suck now.

[brianshinsaccount]

yes they do its just hard to see it if you play on 2k view

[Smann54]

Yeah it does.... Dude, hold the left trigger and all the shots you take will be bank shots in 2k7, you need to explore 2k7 more, it was an awesome game.

[PUPOSQUEST]

U suck!! Why does live have to come up everytime you people talk about 2k. Just buy whatever you like...

[nflnflnflnflnfl]

because just about every 2k fan was once a live fan. then live fucked them all over and took their money because they didnt have an alternative to buy... until 2k came along and made the best sports titles ever made.

so now us 2k fans like to shove it in live's face while they catch up on all the work they didn't do the last few years.

[ali486]

i cant wait for this game wow

[izits01]

omfg look at these gay players 4 ex. sum ppl were sayin nba live 08 players r skinny man those niggaz trippin i have the fckin demo and its so fckin siiiiiiiiiick omg best shit ever look at kg at 4:40 and his 1 inch legs bro... tell u the truth i think nba 2k7 was pretty nice but this year 2k sports arent showing 2 much stuff abot 2k8... so imma grab nba live 08 becuz its str8 up sickkk!!!

[boychukchak]

go buy live 08! idiot live fans!

[PUPOSQUEST]

You're the idiot! For giving a damn about what we wanna buy...I could care less what you buy so don't worry about us live fans.

[boychukchak]

PUPOSQUEST

U suck!! Why does live have to come up everytime you people talk about 2k. Just buy whatever you like...

this is what i mean...coz live fans come here and talk shit...i mean go buy what they like...what do they want man?

[PUPOSQUEST]

U talking trash!! Look at all the comments then you make a statement. It started off with people putting down live and not the other way around. So calm down and don't try to son me kid.

[boychukchak]

ok man you calm down coz you dont understand me...this conversation is nonsense

[cokacola3223]

anymore camara options? =Þ

[utuber008]

preordered mine muahaha hahaha hehehuhuhu shit now im broke

[ltaus14]

ok is it possible to play a season of college hoops 2k7/2k8 then import your college roster for the draft in nba 2k7/2k8 then have these players in your season as rookies?????????

sorry if im way off, i live in australia and we dont get the college games.

[holton271]

hey guys i just want to know, did they take 24/7 mode off?

[JuliFran2]

oh sorry, this was Amare !

[JuliFran2]

that one shawn marion dunks looks very good !

Much better than the dunks last year !

good job 2k

[temesgen54]

OOOOOOOOOOOOO BABY!!!!!!!!!!

[rob2011r]

Look at the people in the crowd walkin around! damn dis some realistic shit!

[thumper3662]

will 2k8 have a demo out on PSN?

[xr2unitx]

This clip shows me how much On the Spot misses Rich Gallup. If he was still with Gamespot, he would've been conducting the interview instead of Brian Ekberg. And I guarantee he wouldn't be asking about achievements.

[TyFly1222]

yes i do it all the time

[644604715]

I cant wait for this game! it looks so good!!!

[noonex4]

Best basketball game u gonna find

[yaboynessco]

the graphics look great. im a former live fan nd have only played 2k7 nd dis game looks off da chain. Im giving live "ONE" last chance this year because 1: Habachi is on the cover lol and 2: It actually looks like good competition for 2k this year and you cant deny that.....

[unofficalps3n]

Everything went right until you said live is competition for 2k this yr lol. They haven't been for 5 years. EA is just heavily marketed where as 2k is not:(

To D3R3K736823, They're not copying, They are better utilizing. You couldn't make an bounce pass to the desire location of where you want your player on the floor. The only thing live 06 had was you could get off the user and run around and press x to pass.

[D3R3K736823]

they copying off of live 06 with that off ball joint

[Whunter22]

If they copy anythign off of live then they are losers!!! this game is sooo far above Live

[agumon51]

i think the only thing they have now, which i think is really cool, is the dunk contest. it's pretty similar to Live. But still a great addition.

[MonarcaDeLaMusika]

similar to live? ? ?

hahahahahaha

but yeah i played hte Live demo ddidnt like it

ima buy this shit for sure

[Whunter22]

Well the idea of the dunk contest I guess they did get from them I guess you are correct.

[nflnflnflnflnfl]

ummm guys.. the dunk contest is a real thing... they 'copied it' from reality...

[Whunter22]

The point is 2k7 NEVER used this at all before ummmmmmmmm Bitchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[anzwer333]

nba live 08 is going to lose once again im buying 2k8 instead. im never buying nba live 08 ever again.

[g360ginete]

wow! can't wait till oct. 2! 2k8 swill definitely rule again this year but to be honest, easports made it better this year in live08

[squeezetosoul]

Wow. Really impressive. Off ball movement is insane. Looks really good. OCTOBER 2nd!!!

[ldsmithson]

Why couldn't he make any shots?!?!?!?!?!

[QuickSilva12]

this looks pretty nice but im gonna watse my money on 2k again

[djole94]

WTF ? waste your money ?? buy this game is anythign but wasting money ... i'll buy nba 2k8 and then i'll rent nba live 08 .

[QuickSilva12]

dude, whats with the attitude? i never said i wasn't gonna buy 2k8, i said im not gonna waste "my" money, im gonna get my friends to but it for me, ya get it

[FiascosFreshness]

I said the same thing.. I'm going to buy this and rent live...

[Eman5805]

If the ask a question thing was working it woulda asked about fastbreaks...

[XMXXMX]

its not coming out on the original xbox? im just wondering.... it doesnt really matter to me i have a 360.

[Prfcteclipse99]

looks good, nothing amazing yet

[canicallutownsie]

nice!! looks mad

[filcanman]

Naw, that's been College hoops (gameplay is always better) but game def looks sick. I wanna beat whoever wanted to know about achievements, stupid ass question.

[Eman5805]

Then you should want to beat the man who decided that was the question he wanted asked, he even said himself "It was one I had"

[unofficalps3n]

yeah, Right now, the whole 2k8 nation hates that dude for that question. What kind of shit question is that?

[nanjingde]

NO.1 basketball game in earth！！！
