Wrap Up
It may be late in the life of the PS2 for the NBA Live series to be making a comeback, but for the DualShock 2 crowd it's better late than never. NBA Live 08 isn't a whole lot different from last year's offering, but the subtle changes that were implemented -- the addition of Hot Spots and the bouncing of Freestyle Superstar and X-Factor -- make things on the court a lot more fun. Like this year's Celtics, EA's PS2 hoops release looks to be back where it belongs.
