NBA 2K15: Yakkem Trailer Impressions (Roundtable)

[Jakeness23]

I'll reiterate what I said earlier, the ONLY negatives that I could find personally, and I was trying to find things was:
Warmups are a bit stiff (not loose enough, don't have a flow to them) made LeBron look really skinny, his head looked like a bobblehead, jerseys don't quite fit right (not tight enough, don't sit on player's body, don't look thick enough), McBob's hair and facial hair still aren't quite right either (bout time to give us the control to change current players hair styles).

I'm still stuck on Chris Birdman's Beard..that's a mans beard!!!

Need to worry about real NBA teams and gameplay first

Huh? Who's the new commentators? Please tell me its not Ernie and Shaq

This trailer looks good but I still can't believe how over hyped this game is every single year even after the gameplay is littered with exploits, cheese, and non authentic basketball. Every year I hope that this will be the one but every year so far I have been disappointed so I am going to hold any excitement until the game is tested online and see if the mechanics can hold up. If it does I will sing its praises.

I can see where there target is though and have stopped being as frustrated. I see countless praises by gamers that are only semi basketball fans, but to the gamers who live and breath ball, the competitive gameplay is a mess.

See, you guys jump all over people saying they like what they saw in a sizzle trailer, why? Because they don't want to complain over a highlight vid? I get it, I hate exploits and want real sim ball too, but some of you guys need to chill. It's a trailer meant to entice people to buy it, period. No kid who wants this game or casual guy is going to care or want to see defensive scheme and offensive playbook trailers.

The wording was confusing but there is no new commentary team. Shaq and Ernie are just there for the studio show

good point, outside of my family my two love in life are basketball and gaming, thus I lust after that one basketball sim. However it has led to a lot of frustration, especially seeing the stellar reviews the game gets year after year while I feel they don't truly get the the game of basketball. They are in it to make money though, and dudes like me are a very little portion of their pie.

Here is hoping the new team additions will help with the online competitive balance.
