NBA 2K10 Kobe Bryant Signature Play Trailer

Re: NBA 2K10 Kobe Bryant Signature Play Trailer

The route IS the same as EA's Live for 2 reasons...

1. They reached a high level and got either complacent or lazy and greedy. Adding polish to a game is fine but charging full price for something that is 90% the same as what loyal customers paid full price a year earlier is wrong.

I think sports games should take a similar approach to the Apple OSX Snow Leopard route... make a full game every 2 years and only charge 1/3 to 1/2 for every in between year.

2. Ironically, when Live was also the best selling and highest rated, it actually wasn't the best version of Live, but 'won' those years because it's competitor was struggling, rather than their own game stepping up a few levels.

And to answer the question of why would you rebuild a game that is already rated the best and selling the most?

Well, because you will turn into EA and become hated amongst gamers and lose fans for a year or two. 2K went from a really grateful company in terms of appreciating their customers and listening to them to a company (much like EA) where the 'minimum effort, maximum profit' slogan meant more to them than their customers.

These companies want to make money. Why would they lose out on 1.5 to 2.5 million copies x 60 bucks a year? thats no way to run a sports video gaming company. If they did that, we wouldnt have anymore 2K. I know for a darn fact we dont want this to go the route of Ea and their football. You wanna talk about stale and everything broken in that game.

God forbid we go down that route in basketball. Football and to a lesser extent baseball fans are hurting.

Again, NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TRAILER.

What? Wow. LOL...anyway the trailer was great for marketing the game. Kobe is hot right now and showing a teaser of his sig shot was smart. That shot is a cool addition to the game.

Not really into Kanye's newer stuff myself but this teaser was pretty decent overall.

That trailer looked like a duller 2k9 with a new move...- wasn't impressed. Also andrew bynum still looks tragic from the glimpse I saw

Re: NBA 2K10 Kobe Bryant Signature Play Trailer

It looked okay but it sucks that the teaser was about Kobe I was hoping for some pre-game rituals. BTW did anyone notice Derek Fisher's jersey number up-side down in 0:23!! I mean wth is up with that. I am sure they will fix this but still that's not a mistake developers are supposed to make

don't know if anyone posted this link yet but it shows video of the actual Kobe sig move that 2k got down pretty good.

Re: NBA 2K10 Kobe Bryant Signature Play Trailer

Nice that they added that Kobe move in the game, can't wait to see who else got new sig moves.

Wondering though how we control that - is it contextual, can we trigger it whenever we want? Is it one whole animation - what if the defender doesn't bite, will Kobe still pivot and continue on with the shot? Is there still a release point for that move?

Anyway, it was an ok trailer, just about what I'd expect from 2k at this point.

Re: NBA 2K10 Kobe Bryant Signature Play Trailer

i think that move is done through the triple threat position, but u couldnt do it in 2k9 after u started dribbling, so i'm guessing its actually 2 clips cut together

[teamgt]

wow one of the weakest trailers of all time
