Best NBA PC Game!!

This is the best NBA basketball computer game out there!! There are many improvements over NBA Live 07. Substitution and fatigue are better.

Commentry is also continuing to excel. In addition, the presentation is very good.

The new feature Hotspots is cool. It indicates where on the floor a player likes to shoot. This makes the game more authentic since players make shots where they do in real life. Red squares indicate where players are hot and blue is where they are cold. However players may occasionally make a shot in their cold spots and miss from their hotspots.

The dunk and lay-up buttons are together again this year, and it makes it better since before when you attempted a lay-up, it always seemed to get blocked, and so that forced you to dunk the ball since there was a greater chance it would go in.

I would recommend this game for any basketball fan. Even if you do not watch the NBA, you can still have fun because of the addition of HotSpots since then you can see where players can shoot. This way you know that players like Shaq are dominant near the basket and Ray Allen can drain threes.

Hits and misses

The game hasn't changed much since the last couple of years, but it still keeps you entertained. My favorite part of the game is playing on Dynasty Mode. You get to choose your players and your coaching staff. It feels like you were a real GM of your favorite team.
I like the new FIBA World Championship. I just wish you could play single games with international teams instead of having to play the whole championship.
I feel like the commentaries while you play for this game are not as good as the ones from NBA Live 2005. Creating your own player was better, in my opinion, in that game too.
I kinda miss the option of watching the cheerleaders coming out at halftime in NBA Live 2000. I wish they still had that option. Even though it serves no purpose for gameplay, it feels more realistic.
