I don't believe you l4d...lol

I was wondering about a slider fix for the ball getting poked out everytime you spin in the lane. i love the game. real tight defense and it is not a dunk fest.

Truthfully its a toss up. I brought both. My team is Heat and they have a horrible roster so playing on superstar made it almost impossible for me to win esp since I didn't know the button scheme. After learning it I have been closer to winning matchups. Both games def offer something diff. But wow 2k is like I'm playing with actions figures. Its kind of an amazing experience. Live should make the models bigger. The size in the Hanger should be the size of the players in 5 on 5 play. The ref also needs detail and some attention as far as signals and more interatcion. Both games are wow though in different aspects.

Playing the Live demo I noticed what L4D says about control response when I played again 2k10.

Good to see real competition between 2k and EA, we ALL will benefit from that.

Yeah...you really stunk up the Demo Impression thread.

The demo was way different than the retail/full version and deserved every bit of my criticism. I absolutely hated the demo....but I'm loving the heck out of the complete game.

I guess it was an early build or something like that.

I did the exact same thing lol! I bought it at midnight. I had never played the game (I have a PS3) so I should've been excited. I played one game and I could not get into it at all. Besides NBA Today, there is nothing that would've warranted me keeping it. Got Live from Best Buy and haven't looked back.

I played Live 10 first since I had it 2 days earlier and then I purchased 2K10 and played a few games and I was like WTF.

It was so boring after playing Live 10 first. However the presentation and audio commentary in 2K10 is gold.....but that's about the only advantage it has over Live IMO.

Live 10 = best NBA game ever made. No question about it.

The controls in Live 10 is AMAZING. So smooth and on point. Players immediately react to every move you make. It just feels so right.

My main issue with the game right now as well. I had like 6 turnovers with Kobe everytime I try to make a spin move or backdown my opponent in the lane....they poke the ball out from behind.

Frustrating as heck. Is there a sliders fix for this or is it a "patch" fix issue?

Some moves you just have to be careful with. They are "high risk-high reward" type moves.

This game is the first basketball game that made me nervous while playing it.

In most games, you can cheese a few go-to moves to get your self back into the game. Not this time.

Each possession on offense was crucial and I had to look for the best shot, not just the first available.

Example: I hung tight with the Bulls versus the Spurs last night thru halftime. But after the break, SA switched up their strategy on me and used three basic plays to put the game away.

1) Ginobili P-N-R
2) Duncan High Post-Low Post
3) Tony Parker P-N-R and dribble drive.

Defending these three plays left Roger Mason and Matt Bonner wide open due to the constant help D on Parker and Ginobili and the Double Teams on Duncan.

Yea, my dude, I feel u. I, personally, "got it" early in my playing the demo and had me thinking, "I am RETIRING NBA2K!!" but I was never into NBA2K on a bias level. Personally, I don't see much difference, gameplay wise, from the demo. I thought it was pretty good in the demo and I think it's pretty good, now that I have the retail version. This game is DEFINITELY the ish and glad to know you came around. I think MANY 2K heads are missing the point of this game like Fatal breaks down, below, a bit.

Fatal, u know the deal. I have to co-sign on the "nervousness" of playing this game. It's not the usual that's been produced over all these years. You HAVE TO know what the hell you're doing to play on All-Star and Hall of Fame, not to mention BE FOCUSED and STAY focused, all game long because the CPU WILL get in dat @$$!! Lol. I have to admit, even though I would "beat" the CPU in that 4min 2qtrs demo, it was a varied challenge as I would win some, lose some but now that I have the retail version, uhh, I have YET to actually beat the CPU! I played about 8 - 10 games yesterday of mostly 5min quarters and one 12min quarter - UGH, I wasn't focused, all day.

I capped the night off by going into Dynasty mode and doing some of the Academy stuff.

I also have to admit some frustration with fouls and things I think need to be modified in the game that was throwing me for a loop plus I was a bit caffeinated yesterday. Lol. I'll do better, today....I hope. Ha.
