Three Point Heaven

Every year, we pick up 2K Sports' NBA 2K and EA's NBA Live, and every year, we argue over which is better. Previously, it was an easy decision, as EA's franchise seemed lost. But thjs year's, Live 09 plays and looks great with realistic players and rim rattling dunks. NBA 2K9, however, retains its enjoyable simulation style hoops. After reviewing both and awarding each game an eight out of 10, we decided to pit them against each other to determine a winner.
