PS3:

-Really fluid animations

-Dirk feels like Dirk, the other stars look and play like themselves.

-Purposely turbo'd into the annoucer table to see if I could jump over it. I did haha. Pretty neat.

-Post moves are a lot easier than I thought.

-Court looks a lot livelier

----
Con: It seems like the players "float" when they jump to block or dunk. Ehh.

There's way too much delay on passing. I swear on a lot these passes a half second goes by before they then telegraph who they're passing to.....then pass the ball.

When I'm icon passing, sometimes it feels like it takes 4 seconds to leave the passer's hand when it could have taken 1 second because he does some uneccassary aniamation. I take it as I made made a bad pass, but I do get that one pass every once in a while that feels clunky and gets picked off.

I just hate it that all we can do is cheese around with Dirk and Kidd. I absolutely can't wait to get the full version and try some real plays.

I'm still trying to get used to how the controls work for some of these new additions, but I'm loving it so far. One thing I'm having trouble with is whenever I tap the RT to do one of those push-the-ball-up-the-floor moves, he always ends it with a half-spin.

Are you double tapping it? Pressing turbo once will do the push-the-ball. I think pressing and tapping again will do the half-spin.

Taping RT is the command for the half spin. For the push press it normaly.

Is it just me or does Chris Bosh have a huge white zit on his cheek?

The contact in this demo never ceases to impress me. Eddie House attempted some weak layup, but Dirk got in the way with his arms raised and stopped House like a brick wall, resulting in a brick. In 2K11, this would have led to some ugly two-man canimation and a shooting foul, either that or Dirk's presence would have been ignored entirely.

Right?! It's crazy! Chalmers tried to lay it in, but I stopped him with Butler, then we ended up tipping the ball for like 3x before I got the rebound. Looked really cool.

Is anyone else finding it nearly impossible to pass out of a shot? I've tried like 20 times and only got it to work once

I don't know the exact specs but it doesn't feel close to the final to me. I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same of similar to the gamescon build. That is just my opinon tho. Nothing offical on what build. I see some stuff happen that I know was addressed awhile ago tho.

Final was smoother to me and more responsive especially on defense. This build feels a tad sluggish to me.

Wow, I would pay $60 for it now.

Thanks for the info.

Still not a fan of the delay between when I press pass, and when they actually pass. I hope this is fixed in the retail version, because that was the cause of every single last on of my turnovers in 2k11. On my career, I averaged 5 turnovers per game with my pg(with 15 assists per game), so clearly I'm a great PG, but the passing delay messes me up from time to time. Other than that, I looooove the demo, I can't wait for the game to come out!!!!!

I really hope it's just me and that it isn't present in the final build - I don't see any charges at all, can't draw none and even when heavily attacking the paint - only blocking fouls

Anybody see monster blocks like sending the ball to the stands type of block?
