NBA 2K9 on the PC is the best game ever. Before I had NBA Live 08 for the PC and I thought that it was pretty good. However, after playing this game Live 08 is average. This game has the great graphics since it is a Xbox 360 port, so it has the next-gen graphics! In addition, it has the features that the 360 version has like substituting on the fly, calling plays and team strategies. This game has pretty good commentary. The game has a realistic atmosphere. The crowd is nicely done since they cheer and react to the game. There are many different modes. You can play a season, and playoff. Also, you can play some games like the slam dunk contest, 3pt. shootout, 21, and pickup games which are games where you can play 1 on 1, 2 on 2, 3 on 3, 4 on 4, or 5 on 5. You get to pick the players you want on your team. There is even a practice mode in which you can practice the different offensive plays like pick-n-rolls. There is even a free throw practice mode--something I wish NBA Live 08 had. There are many modes, so you will never get bored. 2k did the right thing putting out this game on the pc since easports decided not to make its game on the pc. I highly recommend this game and at $20.00, you cannot go wrong! Everyone needs a copy of this game if you are a basketball fan. Buy it so that NBA 2K will continue to come out on the PC in future years. Update: I was playing this game with the Logitech Dual Action gamepad and I thought it was good. I just got a wireless XBOX 360 controller for Windows and it so much more fun to play. The Shot Stick is a very fun way to shoot since it can perform many different types of shots, layups and dunks based on the direction you put the Right Analog Stick. This increases the number of shots you can perform since each direction has a different move. In NBA Live, you can either press the shoot button or dunk/layup button and it will make a certain type of shot at random. With a shot stick, you have more control over the type of shot you would like. I thought they had this fixed I bought this product expecting that Steam had solved the issue with missing activation key. Guess what? There is no activation key in the box at all. completely and utterly dissatisfied. Just like the Console version....without the Online I would like to start off by saying that Amazon is wrong. This game does not include ONLINE play. Other than that it is just like its console counterparts. All the moves are there and all the features are available. The graphics seem to be even better than that of the PS3 when in motion! I would highly recommend getting a 360 controller as it is supported in the PC version. Pros: [...] -Best PC basketball sim ever -Modding scene (realistic shoes, teams, faces) Cons: No online play Installation issues First time in about ten years I have been unable to install and run a game. (Have had no trouble with earlier games by 2K sports) Requires a steam account, whatever that is, but once I got one the game still did not run. No clear technical support on website. Trying customer service. Avoid the frustration and buy something else. Beta Trash This game is a simplistic and poorly executed port of 2K Sports XBOX 360 version. They even include a picture of the XBOX 360 Controller in the manual. If you have an XBOX 360, pay the extra money and play it on your 360, this game is a piece of the trash. The menu system is jacked up, sometimes you can use your mouse other times you need to use your joystick or your keyboard, it's never consistent or logical. But the problem that seals it at 1 star is the fact that it gives you an error message when you try to configure a controller that isn't for the 360 and the default configuration does not have the direction arrows or secondary buttons assigned. I have no desire to play a basketball game with my keyboard. Further complicating this debacle was that tech support was useless and simply suggested they couldn't solve the problem because their are many types of controllers. I have played countless games including tons of freeware games that all work with my controller. This is a beta game all the way, only they aren't interested in fixing the problems. Run away, and run away quick! However, you'll need to press a button on your keyboard though, as the trigger/run button on your controller will be rendered useless.
