NBA 2K9, what can I say. This is a really fun game and its actually hard. I can truely say that Ive been beaten by the computer. Its not pretty but it happens. The game is basically the same, better than live, basketball its been for years but one thing about this game is so horrible that i might have to trade it in. The online play is so bad the maybe AVGN should write a review for it. Let me say the stupidest thing ive ever seen a franchise do is eliminate a strong point of the game. In 2K9s case its the lobbies. The removal of lobbies leads to unfair matches. Im not good at 2K but Im not bad if I played 100 games Id probably win 60 but wow. I was ranked 5490 and i got matched up with the 16th ranked and i got r8pd! They say its so people cant boost but have some consideration for those who want a competitive match, not go down 40 in the first quarter. Everything is great but online. After about 15 minutes of looking you find a game then youre connecting but wait oh crap theres a network issue and we have to restart the search. Im disappointed, id expect this from live but not you 2K (ha lol). It was sposed to be patched up sunday and i though it worked but no it didnt. It worked so great for one game. Found a game quick, no lag and i won twice. But even if they fix it this will always be disappointing to me.
