- Own the paint - put the ball in the hands of your best guys and go head-to-head in the lane. With all-new moves and counters, including pump fakes, drop-steps, and spins, post play has never been better.
- Use the actual NBA shot tracking data to know who to feed and who to defend. An all-new on-screen overlay shows you exactly where a player is most dangerous.

Now the signature go-to moves of the NBA's best players have been realistically re-created to help you score when it counts. That patented step back jumper? A fadeaway with the big leg kick? If it's in the game, it's in the game.
- With its new look and feel, 5-on-5 gameplay has never looked so good. The game features enhanced player spacing and behavior logic in the half-court, upgraded passing and rebounding mechanics, and an all-new two player interaction engine.
Video Game Reviews of NBA Live 08
Customer Review: good game for newcomers
Summary: 4 Stars
The last basketball video-game I've played was Double Dribble back in 1988. When I saw this game and all it has evolved the genre I wanted to try it.
Sport games doesn't evolve very much, only some variations on the rules.
The upgraded graphics, the new additions of sound fx, audio commentary, camera angles and the extras makes a great game for casual and hardcore gamers. I read that the console versions have other features that the PSP doesn't but the portability convenience makes it a good choice. If you have some time you can pick a quick game and enjoy or continue a season.
But this will never compares to the real life sport.
