Remember the Buzzer Beater trailer EA came out with a few weeks ago that ended with Gilbert’s signature walkoff after releasing the shot?

It might actually be in the game, from NBA Live 08′s Producer Blog:

1.) Will players have their individual signature movements like shots and emotions (ex: After clutch shot Kobe Pumps his fist)?

Signature Go To Moves is a pretty cool new feature that we are doing this year. There has been quite a bit of coverage in the gaming press on this the last few weeks so if you haven’t heard about it yet I would suggest you check out some of those articles. The important thing to know about them is that they don’t require a special button presses or controller move to make happen- they are just shots that happen under the right contextual circumstances for certain players. For example, if you get Kevin Garnett in the post and shoot a fadeaway jumper you will get KG’s fadeaway and not a generic one. This is really the evolution of the signature jump shots that we did last year, but this year you get full on signature moves instead of just jump shots.

We also do a lot of signature dunks, lay-ups, and passes for certain players, but these are baked into each player’s table of possible actions so they don’t happen 100% of the time. You will on occasion see Steve Nash pull off a pass that no one else in the game can do, or have T-Mac throw down a signature dunk on the break.

Finally, we have added in about 15 to 20 signature celebrations this year as well as some more generic ones that can be used by a variety of players. We wanted to make sure that these don’t get overused, so we tuned them so that they will only play in big game situations. We didn’t want people to see these all the time and get sick of them, so it may take you a while to spot them all.

So it doesn’t say definitively that they’ll have Gil’s walkoff move on there, but I can’t envision a scenario where they wouldn’t have it, considering he’s on the cover.
