    Re: NBA 2K12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

    On the PS3 demo, Lebron just threw down the nastiest poster dunk I've ever seen in a video game, just vicious. It really sucks there's no replay button because that was awesome.

    This is basically what I've been waiting for with a basketball video game. 2ks amazing intangibles have finally met up with users having full control, and the AI is now up to par. The players play like how they do in real life and most everything is sim.

    Even last year I was so frustrated playing the CPU because it was too easy to win because you're generally playing vs the same style every game and it was too predictable. Now it looks as though every game is going to be a big challenge and you're finally going to have to gameplan in many different aspects of the game to beat the CPU and a good human player.

    I love also how they have given us control of post shots, as I was frustrated with seeing players like KG and Dirk take a ton of left handed hook shots from 10 feet out last year instead of doing their patented fadeaways that looked insane and basically no one in the game shoots anymore, let alone makes with ease.

    I'm very impressed so far.

      Anyone tried cheesing with the dropstep dunk? I wanna know if it is overpowered. The bums at hoopsgaming say their forced lead passing won't work as well in this game which is always nice to hear but ofc they claim they will find new exploits.

        I have both consoles and the demo seems to look and play equally well on both. I will agree that the colors seemed to be bit toned down on the ps3 version. The actual gameplay seemed just as good.

        But, of course, the final release version will tell the tale on both platforms. Keep in mind here the 2k sports games are generally developed for the 360 system and ported to the ps3. Hence the percieved better looks and gameplay for the 360 as opposed to the ps3.

        But this year could finally be the year that both versions are equals. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

                Im guessing a lot of stuff has been implemented later on. The Free Throws for example. After 15 games I can already shoot 100% accuracy with everyone.

                        I did a dropstep dunk with Chandler over Chalmers deep in the paint. I tried it again over Lebron a little forther out and got stripped.

                        The forced lead pass still works, but is not as consistent. I think it will still be worth while for a cheeser because its still effective.

                          What classic teams are everyone looking forward to the most? For me it has to be the showtime Lakers with Kareem and the 85/86 celtics now that they actually have Walton and Wedman in the game.
