Really looking forward to the game this year Association mode sounds awesome

"Another fan requested feature is real-time practice. Last year we had a practice menu in the game where you could go set up a little scrimmage, but it was kind of simulated and your players would get kind of a stat boost based on that. This year with real-time practice you can actually go into a practice gym with your team and practice plays or go do a scrimmage or practice a signature shot with one of your guys. This is really cool for learning the signature shots of your players, learning to run plays in an environment that doesn’t count negatively against you. In years’ past people would have to learn plays in game situations, and that’s not really fun or fair because they are doing everything they can to win the game. This is another of those little icing on the cake features."

Another reason why I love 2k sports, they always listen to the fans, can't wait for this game to drop.

Wow, the improvements they made to the association has me intrigued. its just the gameplay im not sold on yet. if the demo plays the same as 2k9, i will pick it up on black friday.

Sounds like 2K is bringing the house. Let's hope they have all of the cards to pull this one out. I really love the stuff they have done with association mode as well.. Sounds tremendously promising.

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview: Part 2 (Game Informer)

Yeah I actually liked the way the game played last year so this sounds amazing this year.

[TreyIM2]

I was really hoping for a demo and reading the gameplay improvements really cements that feeling but they're about to lose those release day dollars they woulda had from me because I feel swayed by Live 10 plus I get my hand on the demo. To be honest, they wouldn't have even received my money last year if it wasn't for Live 09's lack of response to button presses. While I've been a 2K rider for years, now, I always respect what Live has tried to do even if they didn't get my money.

This looks a rental, for me, then I will see if that makes me wanna give 2K some money, afterward unless they can get that demo out BEFORE the 2K10 release...maybe.

I don't think there is anyting wrong with the shooting in 2k. With the shot stick I feel that is one of their strongest aspects imo.

I'm fine with the shot stick, but it should be further exploited for giving you more control on the type of shot to pull out
I mean, look what type of control live 10 gives you just with LS + the button.
Imagine what could happen if the shooting system would be based on all the different combinations of LS & RS

Yeah I just got done giving Live another try again and I absolutely love the way they did shooting in that game. And the way the players plant their feet and pull up looks so smooth.

You know, one thing a lot of us franchise guys been really concern about, the sometimes very stupid trade AI, havent got any mentioning....

I'm worried....

I'm not even talking about teams trading superstars (or lack thereof) I've seen Rondo partner up with Baron Davis because Celtics decided to trade for him. I've seen Magic signing Jason Kidd off free agent when they have a perfectly healthy Jameer Nelson.....

[sambowie]

Gawdam! Just how smart are these guys?! Just reading this article has made my head spin!! Of course we'll have to see if any of this pans out in the game but it just seems the guys at VC are operating at a whole other level.

I'm with you - I played about five seasons of franchise mode in 2k9 and I can't count how many times the CPU made a stupid trade or FA signing for a position they were already stacked at. I remember one instance where the CPU had the Jazz sign Steve Nash when they already had DWill.

But on the other hand, the hand, the CPU did manage to sign Hedo Turkoglu to the Blazers, something the real life Blazers couldn't do.

[And one1]

Give me total control on offense and defense and it will be 60 dollars well spent!

They have come with an unexpected solution to that problem with the gived option to control all teams at once !

Re: NBA 2K10 Interview: Part 2 (Game Informer)

Do they shoot fade-aways? Do they shoot leaners? All these little things that end up being the personality of a player is now realized when you play our game

Dirk, Nash and Kobe better shoot fadeaways out the wazoo in this game, or I'll consider Rob Jones a liar.
