    Re: Offical Demo Impressions

    Did Dirks hair move in any of the videos?


    Can Beluba comment on what build this is?

      Re: Offical Demo Impressions

      My only gripe is that the announcers call most of the players by their jersey number, as if they were user-created players. I assume this is an issue with the demo only, but you never know. Hopefully they got Kenny to record the name of every player in the league.

        might be a SPACE issue on the demo model... some games have zero commentary.... other demos, i mean.

        all ign POD videos have real names, for the main majority of real guys.

        either a space issue or a sign of an early build

          I somehow got the feeling I would be the only one that didn't like it.

          3 open shots missed,8 lay ups missed,alley oop to Shaq and instead of throwing it down he does a switch hand lay up attempt (wich misses),AI 5/5 3pt with only one of them being open,1 dunk blown,dunk through the back of the backboard twice,previously mentioned fast break problems and I could never seem to hit someone in stride they'd always stop. That was in 3 games. I'm sure it could be fixed in the final game with sliders but I didn't like this in the demo.

          What I did like was:

          When I got a steal with Wade and had him all by himself on a fastbreak he threw down a pretty sweet 270 dunk. I think so anyway,more than 180 but not quite 360.

          Shot blocking animations.

          Watching Dampier fall on his *** after a Wade crossover.

            This game has so much depth to it. In the Summit Leagues, I can already tell that we can relax some of the anti-cheesing rules.

              This is amazing. Its an early build demo thread and its about 20 pages long, in less than a day...lol

              That speaks volumes for the quality, and probably saves Steve alot of time since his equipment wasnt working right.

                Great DEMO!! D. Wade is a beast on the baseline...the only negative thing I see in this build is when Shaq does his backdown animations, sometimes he goes right thru the defensive player for the two-handed dunk...so far: Gameplay=A Graphics=B(some faces and body types are off) and Fun Factor=A(shelved 2k6 for a DEMO)

                      WOW! Played a couple of games after work and am very pleased. Every game feels different. Proper passing is key, as slop will not be allowed this year which is awesome. Just feels so right. Beluba for president!

                        I can't wait to get the full game to get some practice in. The variety of animations is flat out amazing. I'm loving the around the basket anims and layups - when I can get to the basket that is. Being able to pull off a dunk or sweet layup is so satisfying. I've seen the CPU pull off those cool layups where their momentum carries them into the row of cameramen at the baseline - extremely cool. Time is going to crawl for the next 11 days
                        HBO's "The Wire" should rank as one of the top 10 shows EVER on tv - period

                          This will help time speed up spank. Between this and saints row, i see a light at the end of the tunnel.

                          Don't lie though, you enjoy the sig jumpers so much it doesnt matter if you dunk that much right now does it?

                            Re: Offical Demo Impressions

                            Why is the demo on widescreen on my lcd screen? I use my LCD computer screen to play my games sometimes. My buddy told me 2k6 played in widescreen as well for him. Anyone know how to change this? I changed my screen format to normal and the game is still widescreen?

                            Thanks

                              HMcCoy, thanks for your impressions earlier. Too bad about the fade-aways but everything else sounds really good.

                                Shaq went through the defensive player, and then through the backboard, for the dunk.
