NBA Live 10: Changing the Game (Gamespot)

Re: NBA Live 10: Changing the Game (Gamespot)

there's no shortage of highlight passes in this year's game. That was actually the original intention of the freestyle pass feature. At one point every pass was a behind the back or no look. The actual mechanic just felt so good that we opted to turn it into an all encompassing passing stick. But regardless, freestyle passing is still the best way to get a flashy assist.

Maybe the biggest improvement to the passing game though is the offball movement of your teammates. They move with a much greater sense of purpose and do a better job at capitalizing on cutting to open spots. It really opens up the floor and makes for much more interesting basketball.

That sounds pretty cool.

Yes. The bigman pass assets are contextually correct.

One thing I do have to mention is that I love that the big men lose the ball in the paint if they dribble to much..

You have to play with every team to see the atmosphere of each arena.

Okay, so freestyle passing is activated with LT not left stick, that makes a lot more sense and puts my worries to rest. I can't wait to "flick" some nice passes around the court.
Thanks for clearing that up Beluba.

Aww man, just imagine a 3 on 1 fast break your leading the break with a good PG, and you jus hit off the dude on the left with the Freestyle Passing for the no look, walk away pass faking to the the right for an easy dunk. Now that's real ball.
