NBA 2K14 Video - Next-Gen Gameplay

[DruBreeze]

It is Oct 24 as I write this….Nov 15 is 21 days away….this game truly looks amazing…OS should replace the GameSpot vid with Franchise Sports vid, just for pure content reasons. I cannot wait until I leave my GameStop with this. Seeing this almost makes me want to never turn my CG 2K on….truly blown away by the detail thy've poured into the game. Wow….PS4 BABY!!!!

Let's not kid ourselves about compression of the video. The way it moves will still be the same no matter what definition its in. I am disappointed because the player movements are still the same. Yeah it looks better, but we knew that. I wanted the player to transition from animation to animation better. I know ima get hated on, but I keep it real. Its not a big jump as you guys made it out to be and now its hard to say the truth. Its still 2k14.

I have to agree with you. The "true to life" feeling that the trailers had, is a little bit disappeared in the gameplay footage

I wanna see a downloadable 1080p version of the gameplay video. Youtube is a mess!

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned or not, and if it has, sorry for posting it again. The Gamespot footage does look a little washed out. I put the vid on HD and it cleared it up quite a bit. In the OMG trailer, the beginning shows lebron walking toward the screen and look at lebron on the game footage. LOOKS THE EXACT SAME!!! People kept saying this was the close version and now we see that was the truth. Dude this game looks great man and i see the OMG trailer graphics in here. The trailers was uncompressed and completely clear. Get this bad boy home, play the game, watch a replay, and i bet it looks like the trailer

I also think it will look smoother then what we saw in this little video.. third, we really cant judge what it will FEEL like, you can form an opinion on what some of the animations may or may not look like but again thats more graphics and flow if anything, I think the game will have good weight to it and play good as a side note I will be using broadcast view maybe zoomed in 1 or 2 notches to get the players a little bigger and to see all that detail in full glory... Pumped!!!

your post was brilliant man. I will zoom in a bit as well just to see the detail

Maybe I'm the only one who plays in sideline view--lowest height and zoomed in all the way, but it allows me to see the details of the players, but still play the game. I don't play online often either.

To be honest, it looks like a port to me. A port with some improved graphics and a little better foot-planting. Physics look similar and still very animation based, the ball tangibility looks the same as it does on current gen to me. The way LeBron lost the ball in that bleacher report video looks exactly like the way he would lose it on current gen.

Now the game looks good don't get me wrong, and will probably be the first game I buy for next gen, I love the MyPlayer idea by the way, that's something I've hoped for in basketball game. Where you get in an environment and it's like an MMORPG with basketball players. So cool.

It just seems like Ronnie and LD sure do know how to hype up a game, especially the way they were hyping crews and it became so underwhelming. Overall it looks like 2k, not a bad thing in any respect, but I expected to be blown away by real life looking gameplay not just graphics. Can't explain what I mean but I just had an idea in my head and when I saw the gameplay it wasn't the idea that I had.

The battle between Live 15 and NBA 2k15 should be a dogfight. Will 2k be able to keep all of it's fanbase and run away with the crown? Or will Live be able to step in and offer the basketball gaming genre something fresh and unique?

Please let the online be playable! It's almost my only major concern, rarely will I venture offline, unless it's to build up my MyPlayer for online. Good servers 2k please!
