    this is the truth! this game is WOW. tune your tv's to this game. work the settings. it can make a noticeable difference. wow. best bball game thus far. not saying it's perfect, but just the continued evolution of this game has taken the engine to a great place. kudos.

      Ray Allen jsut got SANDWICHED by Bynum and Pau and crumpled to the floor. Not injured though.
      Bynum and Pau are beasts in the paint, its going to be hard to score on them this year. Also how do you make subs? i know the CPU could do it.

        If you don't watch out, Eddie House will come onto the court and just start gunning. Damn! He just lit me up for back to back triples. I got 'em back though with Kobe in the post on a mismatch.

        They absolutely nailed Kobe in this game. Some of the mid-air adjustments he made in my last game were beautiful.

            That is your defense? It doesn't look like a PS2 game? With "NEW 2K HD" jaggies are unacceptable.

              Kobe is unstoppable in 2k9. Im digging the new lock down d.
              I think Kobe might actually be a little too unstoppable. I played the demo for almost an hour and Kobe only missed five or six times in that entire span. At one point I was double teaming him in the post and then Perkins came over to help. Kobe still managed to break it and score. Him and Fisher were hitting threes off the dribble like crazy. It got kind of frustrating but I'm sure once I get the nuances of the new defensive system down and maybe some slider tweaking it'll be less maddening.

                Hmm, this is now turning into a pet peeve. I hold aggressive to try and do Isos and I'm starting to just get sucked into some charging animation.


                The more I play this demo, the more I love the game but the more terrible I feel at it. And I was pretty good at NBA 2K6 through 2K8.


                Does no one else feel like this almost an entirely different game? Man this is frustrating. I guess not entirely different, but I'm really struggling with finding open shots and getting layups. I haven't shot a single layup yet actually, all mid-range, threes or random dump offs to the paint. And I keep repeating it but I'm absolutely useless with Iso and mid-air adjustments.

                    The gameplay is good, the game looks like isht.

                    Live just feels better, overall to me, and I'm having a hard time admitting it...

                      Anyone notice the new LOCKDOWN? How you can get far/mid/close using the R stick? Plus you can use the lockdown stick to play to the left or right. Nice

                        HAHAHAHA


                        So for some reason while the Lakers are working the ball around Pau gets the ball just outside the 3 point line out on the wing, and for some reason decides to take the shot. Well as Garnett for some reason I decided to bite on what I thought was a fake (maybe he just slapped it out of Gasol's hand?) and swatted it into the stands. Then the camera just stayed fixed on Pau and KG and KG was jsut glaring right into Pau's eyes until Pau walked away. It was AWESOME.

                            Can we just wait until we see what the 360 version looks like also?
                            2k works from that system.
