With all-new moves and counters, including pump fakes, drop-steps, and spins, post play has never been better. | | • | Use the actual NBA shot tracking data to know who to feed and who to defend. An all-new on-screen overlay shows you exactly where a player is most dangerous. | | • | Every player has a go-to move that they consistently go to when the game is on the line. Now the signature go-to moves of the NBA's best players have been realistically re-created to help you score when it counts. That patented step back jumper? A fadeaway with the big leg kick? If it's in the game, it's in the game. | | • | With its new look and feel, 5-on-5 gameplay has never looked so good. The game features enhanced player spacing and behavior logic in the half-court, upgraded passing and rebounding mechanics, and an all-new two player interaction engine. |

Product Description
Providing an unrivaled level of authenticity, NBA LIVE 08 introduces hot spots, using real NBA shot data to illuminate the locations on the floor where your players are most effective. Couple this with all-new signature go-to moves that capture the essence of the NBA's best, and you can now play the game on a console like you see it from the stands. All-new shooting mechanics - from deep three-point shots well beyond the arc to 10-foot jump shots in the paint, every shot attempt has been redesigned to provide more fluid, realistic results. Dunks and lay-ups are now assigned to the same button command making highlight reel plays even easier to perform. Running at a smooth 60 frames per second, NBA LIVE 08 is as close as you can get to the court, without dropping a dime for courtside seats. Player faces, team uniforms, and authentic arenas jump to life behind the power of next-generation game graphics. Whether you're working on your game in the revamped practice gym, or playing in front of a packed house, feel what it's like to be an NBA superstar. ESRB Rated E for Everyone

 Good purchase June 13, 2008
Very good game with actual players. Good graphics. On the season games, you have to keep saving your actual scores, because sometimes the game got reset and you have to start all over.
Very good game!! Highly recommended!
 Needs Improvement June 2, 2008
This game is the pretty much the same since '06. I wish these sports games would stop creating optional games like "The Crown" and focus more on off-season and in-season stuff. The player trading is just as dumb as '06 (the pc won't trade draft picks). And why in the world won't NBA Live and Madden create conditional and future draft pick trading??? The rookies are better in '08, especially the second rounders that weren't even worth drafting in the previous versions. My recommendation: It's a lot of fun to play, but the franchise mode hasn't changed. But props to EA for continually creating awesome games - they just need a little tweaking in my opinion.
not perfect, but fun May 6, 2008
This is my first Amazon review for any product. I just had to say that this game is a lot of fun for a portable NBA basketball game. Its not perfect by any means. Defense is basically non existent. The animations are well done, especially the dunks. They do look good for a handheld system. The Crown is a cool feature. Basically just an achievement system, but it gives you something to play for. Some pretty cool unlockables like jerseys and teams. I also enjoy the minigames too. They are fun for a quick fix. I play this game a lot on my breaktimes at work. Its not a hardcore Bball game, just meant for fun.

well I am here to say this game definately does more justice than a 1 star!! With all the capabilities that is offered in the game, how could it be? I enjoyed the game, and actually was suprised by the game play on the PSP, the graphics are more enjoyable than the PS2 version, but I would say the realism it not... in the PSP version, I don't like the fact that it is so easy to make shots, players go to the hole anytime they wish, and it's extremely hard to steal in the game... but like I said, it really is enjoyable to have all those options at the palm of your hand; shot out is added which I have never played before, and it seemed I was stuck on that challenge even before I experienced playing a real game... bottom line is the game is good, damn good for PSP, I just hope EA can make some slight adjustments towards next years edition.
 YUCK! February 13, 2008

this game to me is like live from last year... it sucks.... i played this using cfw but played only 1 quarter before i quit playing. i dont know why the other guy gave a 5 star review, because this game is horrific.. its exactly like live from last year, which i regrettable bought and played for about 10 games before i bought nba 07 from sony. that game played much better than live and i assume the same can be said about this years version. the graphics are choppy, the controls stink, and i took luol deng to the basket and instead of laying it up, he did a hook shot underneath... pathetic game.. stay away from EA... theyre going to go defunct as soon as they lose their madden license... caveat emptor
