After a few more games I'm starting to get the hang of this dribbling thing. It's amazing how the more you know about the controls the better the experience with this game. I haven't had that feeling since 2K11. The possibilties are endless! I did notice however that rebounding needs some work and some instances where contact SHOULD play out but I'm chockin' that up to the level we're playing on. All Star and Hall of Fame should play differently. Anyway, it's gonna be a GREAT season OSers! Yeah buddy!

After the 2nd night of playing, I'm getting more used to the controls. I can't say I love them though. I guess I need more time. Also I hope offensive rebounds are tuned on the retail version. I wish I could change the camera angle to 2k.

Playing on the side view is always a pain in the...

Ahhh, the never-ending 2k version of the chicken or egg argument. It's really just preference. I feel more simheads like the broadcast cam because it looks like what you see on TV. Whereas others like 2k cam because you see the whole floor, you can see lanes better, and it's like you're actually playing. I like broadcast personally, but 2k isn't terrible.

Yep, apples/oranges...i actually like both cams. Broadcast for single player and 2k cam for online team-up!

I can't stand Broadcast. You can't see up the court, it is harder to judge where people are on the top of the screen. You can't see the lanes as well. You really just don't get the view as you would if you were actually playing as the player.

It is just preference, but I just cannot understand the appeal of it.

Like I said, the appeal of broadcast is that it emulates exactly what a game on TV looks like. That's probably the number one reason people use it.

Boys take this online thing serious, even with a DEMO.

It's sad really.

Anyways, back to on topic. I am loving the gameplay!

[Nokstar]

People like broadcast view because it literally looks like a generation ahead of 2k view graphically...2k view makes the game look like a original Xbox game lol.

Because it's creative.

Wouldn't you get tired of basketball if every time LeBron dunks he did the same dunk? Or Wade does the same move every single game, till he retired? Iverson never amazed us with his handle and just did basic crossovers all the time? If MJ did the same move over and over. It's variety and is needed.

I honestly feel like people don't like the dribble stick because to actually use it to it's full potential you have to actually know basketball. When to do moves, how you bait your defender, read then react, what type of shot to pull after the defender takes the bait. It's maddd creative.

You guys are going to be missing out.

I gotta disagree with you... The point of the dribble stick is to make it EASIER to pull of moves and in the case of 2k13, pulling of hard moves in just a flick of a button and therefore removed that 'feel' for the user actually making the dribble. The 'creative' factor you mentioned was also the same for the old style... But it's different for everyone else. It's good that they have given the option to go with either way of dribbling.

I'm really liking the demo. A lot. I was not a fan of 2K12. Most of my issues with that game appear to be ironed out.

Only negatives I see so far is that there's still a little too much sliding off of defenders. Too little contact. Or contact having too little of an effect. Also, too many crossovers are happening when really close to the defender.

Only other gripe is the Perkins seems to be a little too graceful. Some of his finishes were a little too finesse and too pretty for Perk. Need to be more deliberate and slow.
