    Re: NBA 2K12: The Official Little Things Thread!

    I was playing a game in My Player and I guess it was ground hog day, Damon Bruce introduces the halftime show saying "don't you wish everyday was ground hog day?" then he said again "don't you wish everyday was ground hog day?" then he repeats it about 2 more times and I thought the game had froze or it was skipping. Then he said "I'm just messing with you". Scared the F outta me I had 17 pts in the 1st half I thought I would have to start over.

      I haven't been able to decide whether this is a small thing or an impression, but I think it's a little bit of both: I am really, really impressed with the amount of detail paid to the classic teams. That's not to say they're perfect. There's surely room for improvement. However, as much as I loved the Jordan Challenge, this mode in 2K12 is much more fulfilling to me because there seems to be increased attention paid to all of the 15 greats (as well as others).

      One of my favorite small things is the different looks of "classic" versions of active players. '98 Duncan, Bryant, and Fisher are awesome. Duncan more cleanly shaven. Bryant and Fisher with more hair and skinnier. It's great. Further, the improvements to classic players present in last year's game is also very welcomed. For instance, Shawn Kemp happens to look a ton better than he did in 2K11 (his hair is much more '96-like). All around pretty awesome.

          Dunked on one of the bucks players with Dr j that caused the bucks player to fall to the ground. Dr j went to pick up from behind the bucks player with both hands but the bucks player shoved him away like i dont want your help after you just posterized me.

              I'm playing the 76ers vs Celtics (my player game) and the guys started talking about how a lot of people have forgotten how big of a rivalry they had and then about the Bill Russell/Wilt Chamberlin battles. It's really cool that they have matchup-specific commentary.

              If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                  If you hit a shot right at the end of the buzzer then the refs will actually review it and there is an action replay and the commentators actually say how close the shot was etc. And the players reactions are all appropriate. It's amazing.

                      Saw the blimp shot of the New Orleans Arena.

                      I nearly cried. *sniff*

                        I was playing at Golden State and saw the aerial shot of the arena at night at half-time . It was nice, busy roads with cars driving by.

                          Don't know if it's considered a 'little thing', but I like when the announcers make fun of that "spurtability" thing. Heard it a couple of times and thought it was cool.

                                Now I may be reaching here. But...

                                - LeBron's backwards trot after a made jumper.

                                - Kobe's defensive stance.

                                Now again, it could be my mind playing tricks on me. Maybe someone else has noticed it as well. lol

                                Also, I had a sick throw down on some poor defender with LeBron for an And-1. After the dunk, dude fell on the ground and LeBron stood over him staring down at him. Then dude gets up in front of LeBron, and LeBron keeps staring him down without moving to go take his free throw.

                                Me and my boy were rolling!
