Did you see LeBron breathing heavy during time out?!? Wow!

Anyone notice the black arrow underneath Iguodala as he made the pass at 2:15 of the video? Looks like they've done something special with directional passing. Reminds me of the manual passing feature in PES and FIFA. Maybe we finally have a manual passing feature in a basketball game!

Anyone else feel like 2k is starting to turn into what saints row turned into? I feel the whole "sim" term will soon be long gone from the game, especially if they continue to only focus on my player. I will say the player sit down should be interesting during the free agency period. "No, LeBron stay here in south beach with all the hoes, money, and for gods sake I'm df'in23x!"

I always rolled my eyes at Wishlists where little kids would say they wanted a house, girlfriend, car etc. for their MyPlayer, but last night my general impression on Twitter was that they're aiming to become Grand Hoops Auto.

I do feel sim is going to die soon, as the masses don't care about that, and 2K have clearly catered to the masses, with all this RPG stuff.

The only thing that I've seen that could be called "Next-Gen Sim" is the way the new Point of Emphasis feature works, but even that is a revamp of a feature on 2K10.

But doesn't all that "RPG stuff" count as sim? Seeing as how that's what happens in real life.

I love this big screen

I like the new cut scenes for my player. Hopefully crew mode still exists cuz there's no more online association. This may be a positive thing to make online association improve and make clus completely forget about ps3/xbox 360. I pray fouls will ACTUALLY result in contact and not PROXIMITY and blocks and steals are achievable but also by contact. I've seen one clip of LeBron I need to see someone commit a foul or cookie a ball handler.

I second that notion!! I was wondering if anyone else was gonna notice how identical this looks to an actual big setting a screen... Visually this game is stunning, it's everything I wanted as a lil kid playing double dribble... If the gameplay is even slightly better than what current gen has than I'll be satisfied (any vague curiosity I had about playing live has been demolished by seeing this vid)

No. Sim refers to action on the court. Not off the court.

Cite a source that proves that or delete your post.

Re: Better Quality 2k14 Next Gen Footage + Plus Screenshots from My GM and More

detail is crazy. they even got the sticky mats for the warriors at the scorers table. I wonder if they use it when they check in.

Would like to see Thompson back peddling/side stepping instead of running away from Curry, cause the run away causes the stupid cut back animation you see at the end there, which in turn causes issues when trying to pass the ball to him.

watching on my phone, u could have told me it was current gen and I would believe u. im gonna have to play the game to notice differences

You know, not to be a nitpicker, and I hate to not focus on the positive aspects of which there are many, but I find stuff like this is pretty odd. We have been asking for an update to the Mavericks court since 2K13. Next Gen is rebuilt from the ground up, but they still have outdated graphics... why? Makes me wonder how many other courts will be like this... (Orlando Magic, Milwaukee Bucks, etc.) It also looks like they took accessories straight from current gen 2K(see leggings on Kent Bazemore on GS bench 2:17 in vid). This was an area where many of us hoped they would address, since they are making everything from scratch anyway. With all the care and detail put into the visual presentation of next gen, I find this very confusing.

you can't seriously say it looks like they took accessories straight from current gen. Those sleeves look 100x better than current gen.
