Re: Own The Paint Vid

KG and Dirk's fadeaways look really nice. If they added more animations for the interaction between the defender and the player posting up it will look better. When they do the spin moves and everything, the defender needs to move instead of just standing there. Noone goes all the way down in their defensive stance in the paint.

damn this game is shaping up to be pretty good even though some animations still look weird to me. Did I see correctly Create Your Own Go To move??? interesting

create your own go to move means stringing together moves in the game (a combo, like a fighting game), to end up with a final result

I have just bought a ticket to get on board of the "Impressed" train. Honestly, the head fakes and the smoothness of how you can control the post looks great. If it's as responsive as I've been dreaming for it to be in 2K, then I'm definitely feeling that. If 2K steps up and adds the post game that is in the CH2K7 title with the ability to fake, more realistic speed in movement, and proper collision, then I might be $120 in the hole this October. That was a nice video on the real. I'm definitely giving that sucker a try when I get a chance.

By the way, what do you mean it's like the PS1 days? Never got a chance to get down with the PS1 but I'm assuming that the depth was back then and they didn't strip things out only to return it for glory and admiration? I'm very curious on that breakdown of the PS1 remark.

Re: Own The Paint Vid

i know its a highlight. but where is the teammate awareness? I want to see guys run to get rebounds or to attempt a double team. Everything looks one on one. is that their intent?

Re: Own The Paint Vid

My only concern is that all those players don't actually play with their back to the basket (Gasol, Bosh, Garnett and Camby). Dwight Howard's low-post game is also (very) limited, although he does throw a nice spin-move on occassion, but the video made him look like a beast. They only showed two players (Duncan & Curry) that play extensively in the low blocks. Should've shown Nene', Shaq, Yao Ming and Elton Brand in the video since those guys play more of a low-post game.

Pretty decent video though, I like how they actually move their pivot foot in the game.

Yeah I saw that too I am impressed by how it looks but I am worried that they have the wrong players doing it. Which IMO suggest that any PF or C is able to do this.

Re: Own The Paint Vid

This is a great feature because every basketball video game has strictly favored guards and forwards, but now hopefully this will allow big man to affect the game just as much in the post, just like in the NBA.
(they do look a bit stiff though)

I can't believe that they used a Mr. J. Medeiros song in that video.

Yeah I agree. Amare isn't really a back to basket player either. Hopefully, It isn't abused too much and players that play facing the basket play as they should. Instead of using alot of post moves.

I'm looking forward to one of these games capturing the inside game right. I would like to finally go into a game worried about how will I contain Duncan, Yao, Shaq, Boozer etc. for a change. It would add soo much from a strategy standpoint.

Animations are kinda stiff looking but, overall I think this game will be good. Can't wait for the demo......

Re: Own The Paint Vid

That looked great. I haven't bought a bball game since 2k5 but I'm ready to get back in the game.

Re: Own The Paint Vid

Video looks pretty kool. I don't like some of the shot animations tho. They look way too stiff. Also hate the way Live's ball/rim/net animations are. Still can't wait for the demo. I haven't ever been this excited about NBA Live.

Re: Own The Paint Vid

That looked great. My only issue is where the heck is the defense? I understand it's a trailer but in most cases the defenders didn't really seem like they were interested in doing anything. Richard Jefferson... you paying attention there buddy?

Re: Own The Paint Vid

Ok, what they are trying to do is great, It just seems they can't work it out correctly. The players still move like Johnny Bravo, and the rim and net are noticeably bigger then the ball. Or maybe he ball is to small, I dunno, something just doesn't look right.
