360 Version

[NoSkillz50]

Can we just discuss it here a little? I'm confused. What will be the main differences between the 360 version and the Xbox version? Or will it be so different we won't recognize the two? Is it going to be released around the same time? Why can't they give us any screenshots yet?

Re: 360 Version

the only difference will be the graphics, everything else will be the same

Hopefully the animation will be better than the vids we seen with the Xbox

Re: 360 Version

Who knows why Take Two is not discussing the 360 version, but they aren't yet. Might be some marketing ploy....

We do know it WILL be released about a month later (early April).

I'm sure the graphics and possibly the animations will be better. Who knows about the gameplay and features? I could see it being watered down since it's the first year on a new console though. Time will tell.

I thought I read on this site that it would be rebuilt for 360 this year.

Maybe I was wrong.

Welp, since I've already posted this in two other threads, I might as well post it here, as it seems so many people have not caught wind of this information:

Here are a few quotes from Game Informer about the upcoming 360 version:

"Like 2ks first next-gen basketball foray, THE MAJORITY OF THE ADDITIONS to this version are of the graphical sort."
"ALL OF THE STADIUMS in the game have been completely rebuilt for this version"
"New gameplay features are also being introduced, such as context-based moves like leaning over a railing to snag a fly ball."

Maybe this will end some of your guys' speculation. As you can see, the entire game engine is not being rebuilt, only the graphics and the stadiums. As far as gameplay goes, although everything is not being redone from scratch, they are adding things (like NBA 2K6 did), such as leaning over the wall for foul balls (which is somewhat funny since I believe both MVP 06 and MLB 06 already have these animations in their current gen efforts).

Haha, maybe someone should just sticky my post...

Hope this helps
