I had to look at it a 2nd time just to make sure i wasn't jumping the gun and i was right it was all human controlled.
They had one clip of the CPU setting an illegal screen which is what we've all seen the demo. They had another clip of the cpu doing a straight drive to the rim.
But the dribbling moves and attack the basket moves were all Human controlled and done.
That's the biggest mystery to me about the game right now. Will the CPU players utilize those same type of skills on the floor in the Final version that we see the human player utilizing.
I want to get excited about Live 10 but why have those moves when the CPU doesn't even perform them on their own?

If Live really wanted to sell their game this year, they should take DaoudS' post and put it on the back of the box along with some pictures of NBA cheerleaders.
Guarantee that would sell the game better than the usual "back of the box" listing.

I may not be able to capture anything on video but I'll include that in my impressions.
And hey there's always 2K10 man that game has pretty much everything you are looking for.

Fans of sim basketball should be very interested in Live this year. Some good things in this video...
1. Help defense. I like how Garnett left Varejao and came to help on Shaq. It wasn't a canned animation, it felt and looked real.
I also like how when Shaq ran out near the 3 point line the defense completely ignored him and focused on Lebron who was driving. These are good signs for fans of fundamental basketball.
2. The presentation looks off the hook. The crowd atmosphere is intense, can you imagine the end of tight games?? This game should make even the unemotional excited.
If the crowd shows a lot of tension at the end of games, or in big games, it's going to be ridiculous. Maybe Mike or someone can confirm this?
3. The court spacing is phenomenal
4. Not just in this video, but in other Live videos, creating space has actually been effective. This is going to make the perimeter game a real chess match. Hopefully I can have some fundamental showdowns with Da Czar (holla at me if you play on the 360). I look forward to schooling cats online in a way they haven't been schooled since I played 2K8.
Anyway, my mind is made up. I have been buying 2K games for awhile now, but I didn't buy 2K9 (or Live) last year because I felt it wasn't a significant upgrade over 2K8. This will be the first year I buy NBA Live since Live '98 for the PS1. Good job fellas

That's why i want to see someone showcase NBA Live 10 game play before it releases just like how those 2K guys have been showcasing the CPU players in 2K10 doing great stuff on their own not human controlled.
Every single video i see of Live is always some guy showing off his stick skills.....I'm not worried about what the human player can do that doesn't excite me. I want to see the CPU players use half of those moves in the game ON THEIR OWN.
I can't believe that as NBA fans there aren't that many guys who are concerened with how the CPU utilizes these ball handling skills or atack the rim moves. What good would it be if Chris Paul had 99 dribbling skills in the game but he doesn't show case those skills on his OWN.
I've yet to hear any one guy on the NBA Live boards say that is something they'd like to see in the game........instead i keep seeing guys post about what they did in the game or show a video of what they did with the new dribbling mechanics.
It feels like I'm on the moon by myself when it comes to wanting to see the CPU Players show case their skills individually like we see in these videos.

You just have to remember about 90% of people that play b-ball games only care about what they can do and not the CPU owning them.

What i'm speaking of is what you see in those videos in this thread.
You see creativity with the ball by the Human player right?
Show me one video where the CPU player reacts that way with the ball in his hands. If the CPU did those things to the human player you can't tell me 90% of you guys wouldn't get a DAMN HARD ON just seeing that ****.
That's my point I haven't seen it not even from Kobe in the demo. Can someone honestly say Chris Paul is going to create on his own the way we see CP3 create IRL?
I'm pretty sure he'll have 90+ handles but will that rating make him showcase his ball handling skills on his own?
You play NHL 10 or Madden 10?
Guys have a certain skill set in those games and you see them performing moves based on their skill set. I see the CPU in NHL 10 doing some amazing things with the puck to beat a defender or get around a defender. They look almost human like when performing their deke moves

2 quick comments to the producers.
1:
I presume it's a done to save on processing power, but there really should be some sort of random offset for the crows animations (in particular the towel waving and giant fingers). It's kind of distracting to see the entire crowd in unison for these animations. I know it would be an easy thing to program, but jus wanted to know if this is done to save processing power, or just hasn't been looked at.
2:
Also, player models and faces are heaps better this year, but I reckon the specular maps on the heads could be assessed. Low quality vid I know, but I think you could make it so the area where players have hair is much less specular than it is.
Even for people with only stubble (like Kobe) the tops of their heads should not be so specular.
In this short vid as an example, when you see the cut away for Rasheed, his head is shining away, but his hair should really remain matte, or at least a whole lot less glossy compared to his face.
From playing the demo (lots) I think it's a bit of a negative point on an otherwise very solid lighting system this year.
small side note: I'm sure again, it's also a processing thing, but for players with lots of hair (eg: Gasol) there is no shadow created on their foreheads from their Hair geometry. A simple solution would be to bake it into their head texture.
Some people may think this is nitpicking, but seriously, on all the post play cuts and free throw routines, these small details are very apparent.
thanks

I cant afford to take both girls home from the club this year..unfortunately.
I like what I see a lot in the following areas:
Arena atmosphere:
NBA Live has always been good at this. They are extremely good at capturing the feel of being in a NBA arena.
Those who have been to a live NBA game will know what I mean..from the ebbs and flows of the crowd, how the atmoshpere in the building gradually rachets up in intensity as the game progresses.
This year, they maintained that area of strength, and sprinkled in the individual flavor, that makes each venue unique.
The pace of the game:
Seems to be close to perfect.
The tempo doesnt seem or feel frantic..it feels measured and organized.
Floor spacing:
perfect. very little clutter.
Play caliing: Love it
What do not have a good enough feel for, as of right now..is how the AI is going to play me throughout the course of a game.
I guess I wont be able to get a sense of this until i play a full game.
Are top players being aggressive? Are the right players taking the shots in crunch time? Is the AI adpating to me? switching defenses, doubling?
Are teams and players who like to run the floor and push the pace, doing so?
Basically, what I want to see is, how is Dwight Howard getting his 20 points? Is he getting them on pick and roll, put backs, and dunks? Or does the AI having him playing like Tim Duncan?
I havent seen much to give me a indication either way. probably ownt find out for sure, until purchase.
