I really wanna see how 2k would look with The Show engine. As far as the graphics in the video, 2k11.5. Just saying.

I hate that carry-crossover Butler does at the 1:00 mark. It was in 2k11 also.

Czar with the lovely breakdown of the gameplay. Love the new jumpers and the pacing/spacing. 2k is pretty much refining and perfecting. It's August also, we have no idea what else is in store, besides it's a DEMO.

And for guys saying it still looks the same, IMO, there's nothing wrong with looking like the GOAT.

Only things that were really noticeable, was that the walk up dribble is back. The off dribble jump shot by Butler was buttery, Dirk's jumpshot is FINALLY right and the player lineup screen looks way better. Wish they would of changed the menus up but oh well. Not a big deal.

I love Dirk's new sig jumper. Looks pretty much perfect. I really like it though. Can't wait... lol

Dirk's new shot looks GREAT...spot on.

You guys realize these are animations that are already in 2K11 right? Just so you get a sneak peak of them.

In 2K11, edit Dirk Nowitzki's shots to:

Jumper: R.Rondo
Fadeaway: Snoop Dog
Free Throw: B. Roy

Try it

What I like most about the video is the smoothness of gameplay and player movements and the new player models, they are actually slim and lean now and not "Mr. Universe" like

The textures of the jerseys and shadowing on players seems to be improved too. I also noticed that the floating, waving jersey effect is gone.

And just for the record, people last year were saying that 2K11 was the same as 2K10 in every single aspect based on the first video. Then come release day, the leap from 2k10 to 2K11 was very big in every aspect of the game. 2K puts it's benchmark higher every year, so I expect this year to be no different.

Yes. This happens to most games (if not every) at video game conferences. It is not the final build. This is probably the same build Kobe Bryant played some months ago.

This game will be worth $60...and replayable like last years version. Since there will likely be no season I wonder how that affects the NBA today mode....also I'm confident the game will be fine I just hope they upgrade cosmetics like high res shoes and a ton of accessories, and improve the create a player models...i remember the xbox NBA 2k2 or 2k3 Reggie miller had his multicolor wrist bands...A.I and KG had their finger bands...they even had writing on A.I's elbow band "the answer"...the faces were even scanned

Page 3 post 23. I hope they fix passing out of your shot like Dirk did @ 1:44, too many people abused that esp. in crew games.

Re: NBA 2K12 Video - First Gameplay Video (Gamescom)

Looks good!, players look a little big in comparison to the court but the jump shots look fantastic, all in all I am impressed.

I just hope we see the removal of the animation where you get completely stopped in your tracks when driving from the 3pt with a slower player. For example, when using Dirk last year, I noticed on the higher difficulties the computer would stop him cold when trying to turbo drive by them. There needs to be some jockeying for position with a controllable animation.
