Each will build the skill and experience of a player's created character and also boost attributes of the entire team. ￭ Compelling Storyline - Delve into a deep story where each player has a different experience as they progress through the league. A variety of mini-games, drills, and clutch-win scenarios help players build experience levels, expanding their skill sets and overall attributes. ￭ Film Production Quality - Utilizing movie industry film/camera direction, script development, professional voice talent, and a film-like musical score, NBA 08 continues the immersive cinematic experience within the game. ￭ Enhanced Gameplay and A.I. - In addition to rebounding and shooting, each of the core fundamentals of gameplay has been improved including passing, dribbling, and defending.

Returning features to NBA 08 The Life Volume 3:
￭ Power Boarding System - Based on shot trajectory and bounce off the rim, players can utilize this mechanic to realistically position themselves for shots off the rim or backboard. ￭ Smart Shot Indicator - Once again, use this visual cue to determine shot probability based on defensive effort. Tighter defense will result in a low-level indicator while a softer defense will encourage players to fire away. ￭ Online Gameplay - Compete in a variety of online tournaments and head-to-head action or just build a player in Epic Mode through online competition. ￭ Showtime Gameplay - Players again will be challenged to manage the game, including team involvement and individual achievements as well as coaches, crowds, and agents.
