I really like this game, but man the controls aren't responsive enough. It makes playing D-fence harder than it has to be and shoooting can be frustrating as well. Other than that frustration it's a great game. They need to implement more of a free style control scheme for next year because pulling of moves feels unnatural. I like a lot of the animations they have in this game unlike a lot of people. Some of the layup and dunks are top notch. There's one dunk animation in particular where a great leaper takes off from way out holding the ball high above his head and soars to the bucket for a power slam (Baron Davis has it in his arsenal) that is especially nice. Keep up the good work MS Team.

Re: Great Game Overall
I love this game, but the 2 main problems, although somewhat minor are: no blocks or charges called in the paint, even when the offensive player plows through the D to go up for a dunk; and the passing should be more focused on timing so there would be more missed passes. Missed passes don't happen often enough. In fact, passing to a player should be dependent upon several factors: the passer's passing rating, his vision, the recipient's offensive awareness. Lead passes shouldn't always be completed, but they almost always are. I've only had the rare instance of a missed pass where the target zigs instead of zags. Actually, one more problem I have with the game is: more full court press and pressure in general needs to be used. They still don't press the ball enough, although I've experienced a full court press done once or twice in the 50 games I've played. -

Re: Great Game Overall
I hear you matrix,
Missed passes do need to be implemented more, especially on the jump pass. They need to review some of the plays they put in there and take out the ones that set picks in the paint. You can pass to the guy setting the pick almost every time for an easy dunk, and you can't seem to move them as a defender before they get the ball. Obviously the developers didn't think of the user passing to the man setting the pick.
They also need to institute a full-court man to man. The full court press is lousy.Comment
