and now there is another one. people playing in leagues got to the playoffs and the game freezes everytime they try to start a game. how the HELL can a game get released that fucking shitty?!  i mean, the sales are known, the game WILL sell. so for the devs to just release it so shitty knowing eh it will sell anyways...is just fucked up. 

Makes me happy that I'm still playing College Hoops 2K8. I never liked sports games with official players anyway. I like creating my own stories.

Does that mean NBA live 10 was better?

" @SalazarCruz19:@sexy_nipples:  First of all, you guys mean NBA Live '10. NBA 10 (Sony's product) is utter crap. Also, no even with it's issues NBA 2K10 is still a better game than NBA Live 10. There was really only one huge issue with the game at launch and that was the framerate would fall to unacceptable levels in certain arenas, but that was fixed fairly quickly. "

2K10 is a much more accessible and all around more fun then Live. My stepdad gave up on Live years ago after being a long time fan. The only sports game I play is FIFA but EA is not the king in all sports games.

I've always played the EA sports games when I was younger, and have never really been a fan of 2k sports. This is a real bummer though.

i quit after how much fail there was in the "my player" mode. First i couldn't import my Draft Combine character on day one cuz their servers were shit. then i get into My Player, and end up being on the wrong team when i get to choose which team to go to. And after wasting hours through laggy and glitched gameplay i quit. The draw for me was the "my player" mode, and they seriously need to fix it in 2k11... makes me sad that they put a Laker on a bad version of the game.
 
Dont get me wrong, im still sticking to the NBA 2k series. its just no longer a day one buy for me. Plus EA Sports is catching up.

I'm wicked drunk right now, ang i really wanna paly a sports game. I dont have any :(

I have both, and though nba live 10 is what i play more, hopefully nba 2k11 can bring me back they just fucked up in 10, oh and there dribbling sucks
