PlayStation 3 : NBA 2K9 VideoGames

Visual Concepts' pro basketball series enters its tenth season with NBA 2K9. As usual, the game features the league's players, teams, and venues, according to the rosters and statistics of the contemporary season. The long-running series is known for a distinct blend of realism and playability. Building upon the previous year's releases, 2K9 aims to retain that feel, while adding a few tweaks and perks. Several new Signature Styles have been added for more player-specific custom animations, and the new Hot Zone feature uses real-life NBA data to judge a player's best shot locations and give real-time, in-game feedback about shot possibilities as he moves around the floor. For gamers who take their consoles online, the most significant addition in NBA 2K9 will be its "Living Rosters" feature.

GAMEPLAY FEATURES:

• IsoMotion Pro - An improved dribble system delivers more ball-handling control for changing direction crossing up the opposition.

• Shot Stick Advanced - The Shot Stick control system takes it one step further, allowing you to change your shots mid-air.
