Natural motion in 2k8? Perhaps so

[Kashanova]

i can say this just from working with natural motion program you do need some sort of animation for the engine to work with

This will definatly be the most hyped game in OS history. I know its going to live up to my expectations, but some people on here are going to drive me insane as its release closes,lol.

Im definatly thinking 1 and 2 in your guesses.

Thanks chief I have read most of those posts already but this is the first I heard of R* getting in with natural motion. Being part of the t2 family I figured I would throw out the ?. Can a grown man not dream.

Thanx alot man. This is getting me really amped for this game as if I wasnt already going crazy. I think the 1st screen shot of this game my jaw will probably hit the floor, especially after seeing MLB.

Hey aholbert32,

Thanks for giving us tidbits on info when we are all dying for info! I have a couple questions maybe you have insight to...

When will they show us any kind of screenshot or video?

Are their plans truly revolutionary for a generic game?

How long/how much have they been working on this game?

What is their market strategy going to be like?

What are your expectations now knowing what you know, compared to all the insane hype on the boards here?

THANKS!

My guesses:

1. Motion caps for qb's throwing while being wrapped up. Something like a Vince Young type does quite frequently when he has a defender hanging on to an ankle.

2. Something dealing with pile ups, like for fumbles when 7 or eight guys dive into the pile to try to recover the ball.

3. Motion caps for injuries and/or injured players.
