Description
The 2007 game of EA's hoops sim, designed with a new development philosophy that drives gameplay and feature innovation. When the game is on the line and the ball is in your hands, what will you do? Will you penetrate the lane and rise above the rim for a monster slam, or find an opening around the perimeter and sink the game-winning basket? Jump in on the NBA action with EA SPORTS Family Play that gives every user the opportunity to enjoy success in NBA Live 08. You control your team’s shooting, passing, and steals on defense with the Wii remote, and leave the rest up to the AI. If you're already a pro, use both the Wii remote and nunchuck for more advanced controls.

        NBA 08 vs NBA 2k8
      Review created: 10/01/07

      NBA 08
      Ea Sports goes for an easy lay-up instead of the slam-dunk.

      Features, for instance, don't serve any real purpose. Offensively, players swivel the controller around to control the ball's dribble motions, although it opens up the chance of losing the ball if they get sloppy. On defense, players move their defender's arms with up and down motions, although it just seems simpler to jump up and get in a shooter's face with the tap of a button, rather than jerking the controller and getting sore wrists.

      Good portion of the game's audio captures the essence of being smack dab in the middle in an arena for an NBA game, although the commentary needed work. Mark Jackson and Kevin Calabro keep up with the on-court action, but repeat comments way too often

      Presentation-wise, the game displays in full 1080p, with sharp details with the court and player animations. It runs at a soft and smooth sixty frames per second, with very few slowdown or glitch issues. However, a few player models look hideous up-close

      NBA 08 still has a lot going for it. The mini-games are a lot of fun, especially Own the Court, where players shoot as many successful shots as possible in different spots marked on the court. Players also have Season and Playoffs modes on hand, with plenty of player-creation and team-balancing options. Those eager to create their own NBA legend will find customization options galore, with the ability to expand their attributes with each victory and challenging others online through the PlayStation Network.

      Still, it's just not enough to be a true NBA contender – not yet, anyways. NBA 08 shows fine progress, but a few minor things hold it back from achieving the much-needed victory. Basketball fans may want to give it a rental, if only to check out the fully stacked NBA Replay mode or construct their own warped little creations. Everyone else, though, may want to wait for next year's contender.

      OVERALL 6.5/10
