Ok...to review...I have both the PC and the XBOX version. I have only tried the PC version as it is borrowed from a friend so I can get a feel for the game. If I like it, I will open my XBOX NBA Live and play that version. But currently I am seeing weird issues with the PC version. As the Cavs,when I am controlling the player with the ball, I try to move forward toward the basket. My back becomes turned and I can't seem to get free of the defender who comes up to guard me. What's worse is this animation just keeps happening over and over that depicts my player backing into the defender and we both seem to lose our balance for a secong and then catch ourselves. It happens over and over and over. It looks outright stupid!
The only thing I can figure is I am using a Gravis gamepad Pro that only has a digital direction pad. So maybe I am stuck in "fast" mode that cause me to "run into" the defender and start this "canned" animation. To be honest this makes the game and the collision detection seem clunky. I am hoping that this is a non-issue and there is a workaround. I loved the feel of last years game and after readin all of the good reviews, I was looking forward to an improvement. But thusfar the mechanics don't feel as smooth.
Can anyone comment?
thanks,
Marty
