NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

[D Apocalypse]

Yea and the only thing i see from that vid is a guy scoring before the defense can even set up

I just wanted to show how the PC 2K10 version looks and compares to 2K11 console. I wasn't showcasing the gameplay or my (lack of) skills for that matter.

After playing the 2K11 demo, I am impressed at how much they improved on the graphics which looks almost as good as a powerful PC rig can run. That was really the purpose of my video.

I don't play online much so I will probably still stick to the PC version this year since it's $30 cheaper. But kudos to 2K for improving the game overall each and every year!

It sure is... gasol threw a long pass to kobe going down court and as he was trying to gather the ball up, PP came and snatched it away... very nice

Nice impressions Ruben. glad to hear the ball is more free this year. that was my main concern

whenever you try for a steal the cpu player will protect the ball away from you...its a nice little RESPONSIVE animation

im only disappointed that the walk up animations are gone...2k10 had it but it was hard to pull off...still thats my tiny gripe...

Is the ball tangible this year? i dont really like standing right in front of a guy tapping steal and nothing happens. Can there be steal deflections while performing iso-motion moves?

Yes. I've also seen guys lose the ball off of contact.

Not sure what you mean by steal deflections while performing iso-motion moves however.

Anyone try the "flick flick" moves yet? They're some of my favorite shots.

Hold LT, flick the Shot Stick and let it return to neutral (like a pumpfake), then flick and hold it again before the pumpfake ends. You get different shots depending on your movement, facing, distance, and direction of your flicks.

If you're having trouble getting your passes picked, Total Control Passing will allow you to move your receivers around wherever you want. Unfortunately, it's disabled by default so you'll have to enable it when you pick up the full version. Personally, I can't play without it.

Too bad you guys can't change the diff. and game style... it changes the experience pretty drastically.

No, you can do all of the momentum shots, fade aways, and stepback jumpers with the button in conjunction with left stick and LT. However, you can only do the leaners and drifters with the shot stick.

Are you sure. Because I did Kobe in the lane he **** the shoot button and he did a runner and scored.

I'm gonna have to learn how to play 2k all over again lol the demo is off the chains. This momentum changes alot in the way the players respond to shots and passes I like it!! It's so detailed you can even see the stretch marks on kendrick perkins haha. Oct can't get here soon enough..I just need help with this new iso-motion and I'll be good.

Quote of the Day
"It's like 2K and Live had a baby" ...

LMAO!

That's exactly what I thought when the first previews of 2K11 started coming out. The game has a NBA Live feel to it (jump shots, playcalling, crossover moves, controls), but it is still a 2K game which provides you with the best gameplay, animation, presentation and overall basketball experience.

I thought I loved my wife a lot, but 2K and her might be at the same level... just saying! :P

Is there a walk the ball up the court animation?

Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360) - PS3 Later To

Just an observation and wanted to know if anybody feels the same:

The defensive cut-off move can be performed by pressing down LT and moving the RS in the direction you want your defender to go.

If you're not pressing down LT then you can use the standard defensive moves.
