played 9 or 10 games now, my impression is a 10/10 gameplay. passes are perfect speed, 1on1 situations are great, new iso moves are the most fun i've ever had playing any sports game ( defense included). Compared to 2k12's loose gameplay it is tighter than a virgin on prom night.

Complaining does not equal bitching. If some people have a problem with something, they have a right to say so. If nobody complained about anything, nothing would get fixed.

If it was constructive criticizing I would have no problem.

But it's not. Majority of "criticism" on the game from posters here is straight up bitching. If people learned to play the game in depth like 2K has allowed and blessed us to and actually plays people who play real basketball, the amount of bitching would decrease by like a million.

The graphics are definitely a big leap forward on PS3, didn't notice that on 360.

Then again, I just recently discovered the RGB full range colour on PS3. If you're on a PS3 with an LCD or Plasma that supports this and haven't turned it on yet, make sure you do so. It makes an incredible difference in the contrast, the colours really look amazing.

It could just be the demo too, but I was extremely frustrated with the catch and shoots when I played my 20 or so games online earlier on 360, but they seem mostly great so far here. It could be due to the game constantly forcing me to use the Heat earlier and their players having odd releases, but you should still be able to catch and release smoothly with a James to Chalmers look.

If the catch and shoot game is this nice in the retail I'll be satisfied, I'm getting looks off with KD extremely quickly curling to the perimeter.

PS3 - I press L1 for pick and no one comes? Can we pick player again to set pick? No icons appear when i press L1...confused?!?

Game feels more organic now animation-wise...love it! Defense is fun now as well.

Once you get a feel for the game it feels really good. I just shut out a guy 20-0 right now, haha.

I'm only getting the Heat when I play though, after about probably over 30+ games I've never had the Thunder. Anyone else having this problem?

I'm guessing Beluba, LD2k and Ronnie2k didn't get my message but it would really be a nice add on touch if they give us different color skins for the scoreboard instead of it always black. If Jay z did that it would be a nice touch to the scoreboard presentation hope they do

I knew eventually I would come around to the controls. Love them. It's a lot more convenient to hesi and dribble-drive with the stick.

Ive been playing it since 10am this morning. The new controls are great, I feel like I can finally get space between me and the defender. Driving to the basket feels much better now, and I feel like I have more confidence finishing contested layups and dunks in the lane. The Kinect seems to be responsive at times, didn't really pay too much attention to it while playing.

Defense is so much better now. Contested shots make a huge difference, seems like no one shot or player is automatic, running towards a wide open shooter can actually give good results, or end up in a foul, just as in real life.

And on a side note, this soundtrack is amazing. I stayed glued to the first menu screen just listening to the music, I cant wait for the final product.

It's a decent comparison.

When you try something the first few times you don't automatically get the hang of it after trying it for 5 minutes. Don't matter what it is.

I'm not frustrated with the game. It's just the fact that I'm pissed about what this forum has turn into. A bitching fest smh.

Have you ever heard of the "Rule of 21"? If you want to change a habit, you have to try the new way 21 times before it starts to feel natural. If you keep losing your keys, try to put them in the same place by the door every night for 3 weeks and then it'll start to feel natural.

I can see this being the same way with the controls. Play 20-30 full games (a couple of nights) and I bet the controls will start to feel natural.
