I have some nice clips of Kobe dunks/highlight real esque. But I can't find my cable to transfer them, haha.

Once I learned the controls a little, I got to the rim at ease... don't like that necessarily, but it's hard to get a good look at the basket once you do get there. Toning down dunks in traffic will be huge. Overall.. color me highly impressed.

god bless the PS3

The arena and how alive it is, is just amazing though. Actually looks like an NBA arena for once. I've never seen so many people with white shirts just walking around though. I feel like I'm searching for Waldo. I guarantee you that there is a guy with a red and white shirt walking too... we just have to find him, lol.

A while back I mentioned a free throw camera shot that's zoomed out Broadcast view where you can see way up into the upper decks of the Garden, it's a pretty epic shot even in SD, I can't imagine how cool it is in HD.


Speaking of which, I just saw a closeup of KG late in the Q taking a FT and, well, let me just say the progressive sweat thing didn't show up in SD last year, but it really does now. His head looked ****ing incredible....

Its one quarter for 4min. But you dont have to go back to the main menu everytime. when the game ends you just hit rematch.

I haven't saw the zoomed out view. I can't wait to see it though. I want to see MSG like this. I wish you could set the camera for your free throws...

Just as an example of what I and the other guy (probably) meant by "continuation":


I've really been working that L2-R2 behind the back dribble with Pierce and Kobe because I can't figure anything else out but Rondo's spin , but I just broke it out with Rondo trying to do it in more of a "continuation" style and was pleased to see a different animation - instead of jabbing forward and backing right up into a J like I do with Kobe by simply doing the motion ala 2K8, if I do the motion but then keep holding the stick to the hand the ball ends up in, Rondo immediately, seamlessly goes into a dribble to that side out of the set. If Odom is covering you, consider that your opportunity to get blocked by Bynum after feeling good about yourself.

so whats the deal with DIT? is there a slider attribute for everyone? or is there a attribute edit in the edit player? and if so will you be doing a 2kshare file with those changes intact? I can deal with almost anything but that sort of dunking

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3 Only For Now)

Can everyone cut the **** and actually give impressions/questions about the game? Like seriously...Nobody wants to hear about you wanting to have the demo (360)

On topic

How is the sliding is it that bad?
How it the rim/net physics?

Enjoy the game

DIT's an overall setting in the gameplay sliders, I think it was right under layup and dunk success last year. Basically the lower it goes, first the dunks get more humane and then they're barely there and then they're almost non-existent unless you're really good at Sim-style basketball.
