but this could be a working progress for next year

As long as they have the FIBA license I'm guessing they'll either add teams or perhaps rotate certain teams in and out according to the FIBA rankings year-to-year.

i have watched some videos of nba live and how come the oklahoma city thunder does not have the right jersey. 2k9 has the right jersey for the thunder how come live doesn't.

Also will there be a nba live 2010 since there are now roster updates and dna changed fresh every day.

I'm not sure why, but there will be a downloadable update for Xbox 360 and PS3 users which will add the new jerseys and artwork. It's possible the PS2 version will have the correct jerseys to begin with since it can't offer downloadable content; I'd certainly hope so.

There is certainly going to be an NBA Live 2010 (or NBA Live 10, as they're referring to it at the moment), the NBA Live 365 updates aren't going to change that. Those updates end for NBA Live 09 with the 2008/2009 season and will be used in the next game during the 2009/2010 season.

One would think so, but judging by that happened with Yi Jianlian last year that's definitely not a given.

We might find out tomorrow maybe because it is out in europe

Indeed, though as recently mentioned in the Release Date thread it may be that the initial reports of an October 3rd release in Europe were erroneous.

I went to the ps3 store and I saw an update on the oklahoma city's jersey. I also an add on of live 365. But you would have to pay $20 just to get it. I found out that if you purchased the game you don't need to download that add-on. It doesn't make anysense why they placed that in the first place. Hehehe.

I hope they could include game patches or fixes in the future.

NBA Live 365 is also available to buy as a standalone subscription for people who buy the game second hand or ex-rental. If you buy the game new, the activation code/subscription has been provided courtesy of T-Mobile.

Will the in game graphics be more relistic in the ps2 version. e.g. Last year nba live 08 in ps2 version the rim looked like it was from live 03 and the sound when the ball hit the rim was crap. Will there be more realistic rim and sound of rim in the ps2 version of tha game. Also stealing the ball last year was bad in ps2.

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Sat Oct 04, 2008 2:24 pm

I haven't played the PS2 version or seen any previews but I wouldn't expect a great deal of change as it's outdated hardware, thus it's no longer the priority.

by **Fozzrat** on Sun Oct 05, 2008 4:10 pm

I now have all nba and fiba rosters and ratings. Australia's squad is crap. No bruton, no ingles, no barlow, no anstey, no radhage. Also Raptors Jawai has okay rating of 61. helliwell, schenshcer and j.smith r there which is hopeless. But fiba rosters will changhe on a daily basis

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Mon Oct 06, 2008 10:16 am

Most of the FIBA teams' rosters are outdated or have a few errors such as current NBA players appearing on the squad despite not having played for their national team for several years. Presumably this has something to do with not being able to secure the likeness rights for certain players and most likely having to settle on last year's teams given they included teams based on last year's world rankings.

So Andrew, I would be waiting for the complete NBA Live 09 thread

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Wed Oct 08, 2008 11:27 am

You mean a review of the final version? I should have one up after a few days with the game, which I should have in a couple of days.

by **ps3owner** on Wed Oct 08, 2008 12:20 pm

Very good thanks.

In the meantime, I'm sure there'll be others willing to post their impressions, positive and negative.
