Some graphic observations from this build:
- Kobe has a new face
- Fisher has a new face
- Fisher's arms aren't super-flexed body builder ripped

Did anyone get word if there will be some type of Q n' A for E3?

[EHS_25]

that was a wasteful preview. since visually it looked like nothing has changed.

[jagsrock95]

what's the point of using the move controller with no movement?

[joetheshow159]

Kobes looks to have a new cyberface. lebron too maybe. love to have the players look close to how they do in real life. realism. other than that early build, too early to judge.

some people will just never be happy until 2k makes a game where Lebron comes out of the TV and gives you a massage and feeds you chips while you play the game. even then, a year later they'd expect Lebron to do that AND fetch you a drink and make you a pizza.

This is hilarious, and so true at the same time.

Re: NBA 2K12 Video - Gameplay with Playstation Move

When you say movement what specifically are you talking about ? the layups and dunks or the transitional movement's ? In comparison what game this generation has excellent movement ?

Don't get me wrong, I love 2K11 and I think the layups and dunks are very well done, I'm happy with those, but it's the transitional movements that look robotic. I'm not sure what can be done to rectify this as I'm not a developer but it's something that stands out when the rest of the animations look so good.

Re: NBA 2K12 Video - Gameplay with Playstation Move

the graphics can't improve any more...they've maxed out the power of the current systems...

Why do so many people say this? How do you know? Do you work in the industry?

I really hope they don't try to put too much into the move capabilities for the selfish reason that I couldn't care less about it.

If I wanted a Wii I would have bought one and I just don't see how this sort of controller will ever give a user the same sense of control that a tradition game pad with 8+ buttons and a pressure sensitive stick will. Now a full body suit with real time motion capture might give more control but is a few years away and not that practical but waving a little stick around will never do it imo.

I couldn't agree more.

Agreed. Every year developers find a way to make an adjustment here or there which improves the overall look of the game. Been that way forever.

Looking at the video, I've noticed they got rid of the push back animation when you're trying to get past a defender. =)

Understood ! I get that. I was confused at first because I thought the layups and dunks were what you were referring to. Thanks for the clarification. I don't know what they can do about that part. I fear it may only get worse as they attempt to give the user more control to break out of any situation. Or they could just be bad transitional ani's LOL IDK. FIXIT anyway !

Dal not to speak out of turn here but I think this response is for those few looking to have their socks blown off graphically this deep into a console's lifespan. So I believe they can make adjustments and improvement's each year as they have done. But we'll have to wait and see if they can make the game look THAT much better. So it's just a degree of expected improvement I think but I'm just speculating.

If I were them and they did have the capacity to blow out graphics I would wait until 2k13 because they will need that coat of paint to look newer vs the brand new EA offering.

Again were really deep in this consoles life to be expecting some new discovery I think but IDK for certain.

Hey Czar,

Will 2K allow you to preview the game so you can give us that excellent breakdown of game play that you gave us last year?
