I like the new "body up" animations the two PG's get into at the top. That interaction looks pretty realistic.

I dont even know why everybody is complaining about 2k.
Its like same S***, different year.
You know that 2k gives us only the "base system" and its up to you how you'll play.
Therefor Sliders are integrated in this game. I never seen a sports-game played well out of the box...

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

Overall the movement looks very sluggish and I can tell from the video that there is till no dribbling control and there is no real ability to beat your man off the dribble.

One thing Live did great this year is add signature DRIBBLING moves and crossovers - players in Live actually MOVE like themselves - looking at these 2k10 vids, all the players pretty much dribble the same and like I said there are no size-up moves or one-on-one moves AT ALL. 2k completely lacks the 1-on-1 game. 1-on-1 play is a big part of nba basketball, but 2k has completely ignored it for years.

This post is nonsense from beginning to end. Literally, every sentence is wrong.

the audio was a nice improvement.

There were some nice things going on with all aspects of the sound.

You do have dribbling control in 2k and players do have their own dribbling moves right down to the crossover. The 1 on 1 game will be there. The Cavs user chose not to use the size-up or 1 on 1 moves.

Yup.


I should be surprised by what I'm reading, but I'm not. It's a shame that the growth of the forum is inversely proportionate to its quality. I wish I could have found this place a couple of years earlier. At least I've met some good dudes.

I'm very encouraged by the way the AI is running its offense in the Lakers vid.

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

Looks good to me. One thing you guys have to remember about a game like basketball is that it's difficult to judge by simply looking at videos. So much depends on control that you really need to get your hands on the game to fully get a feel for it . Every 2K baller is not built equally. You can get two totally different representations of the game depending on who you're watching play.

I see a lot of NBA 2K9.5 talk. Honestly, that really isn't a bad thing. I thought last years game was very good despite some of the issues. The video and combine have shown me enough to know that I'm in for another good year of 2K ball with my boys online.

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

I like how quick the AI responds to certain situations. Like Kobe seeing that Gasol was open, or later when he tried to pass to Artest. Even though the pass to Gasol wasn't all smooth.

Lol...don't worry. The noobs usually get bored or get themselves banned. The few that survive the launch window usally end up being good community folk.

Everything will be back to normal by X-mas.

Back on topic:

The vets mostly posted in the original thread. My .02:

Wow...Bron is brutal, but the Laker bench looks spot on. Shannon especially.

I like the CPU ball movement, but I hate watching scrubs play.

Kobe went to the blocks three times in 6 possessions.

I wonder if that's Kobes tendacies at work, or the CPU recognizing a size mismatch.

I like the fact that Bron went to the paint four times and his shot was contested by two players on every shot attempt except his third, a postup...which was contested by three guys.

Help defense is alot better...hopefully the shooting %'s go way down on higher difficulty levels. He was 2/4 in relatively heavy traffic.

huh? they do chant "go lakers go" in the vid...i heard the organs to..the only thing about the organs is that its kind of low compared to Live10's

unless i misunderstood you and you mean that go lakers go chant go with the organs at the same time then yea..im all about authenticity to but they did a good job

theres alot going on in the 3min clip...im just listening to it...the chatter among the players, the commentators and i can hear some random stuff from the crowd (unlike Madden where the randoms seems too dominant) good stuff! i cant wait to see/hear more gameplay vids

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

Hi,

Wow, I wanted to keep my trap shut this year but after this. I really hope its just a bad vid. I see close to nothing from the great stuff mentioned in the "developer insights". Reminds me somewhat of last years "defensive sig styles"...

No visible improvements to defense...Shaq dunks like 10 years ago (or even better), the slowed down gamepace must be hinding somewhere too.
And the worst part: the passing...still bullet passes and horrible passing in the paint...not one turnover ect ect. Aw, I really really hope this is just a bad presentation.
I really did like 2k9 and still play it, and I thought a improved 2k9 would be great...but a 2k9 updated graphics only is an dissapointment. I really give a **** about the bench or stuff like that if important thing are still off. The new animations look strange too...but maybe thats just the shabby quality of the vid (i the HD version of the vid somewhere to DL where I dont have ti pay?)

After seeing this and playing the live demo I think live really made some great improvments this year and I consider buying live the first time...
Just kidding Live is still unplayable for me, terrible.
But after the great insights and the reviews this vid is really a letdown. Hope the demo proves the vid wrong, if not I might be stay with 2k9.

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

Damn the players are so much smaller compared to 2K9. Almost funny. But that gives us the spacing that we have desperately needed for years.

The way Bron was in attack mode,I thought he was being controlled by a human

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

I see no major difference to get excited about in that video from what we got last year

it seems the animations are all scripted and not chosen by the user and you have no total control of the player

I have been a huge 2k fan in terms of basketball and last year i thought it was a weak effort.

this game looks about the same and nothing wowed me

nba live last year was not good either and this year it improved but still has issues that might keep me away

i hope we get a demo soon...not looking forward to this game at all right now

[idrisguitar]

Re: NBA 2K10 Videos (IGN)

and im not so impressed either, this video has made me less certain that it will be a good year for bball games, in fact its looking similar to last year, where both just aren't good enough.

too similar to 2k9, i just hope playing the demo will convince me otherwise as videos dont tell the full story, but from first impressions, im not very happy at all.

i wish i could stand the live 10 demo...at leats it would give me a bit of a change, but cant do that either.

at least fifa 10 is the bomb so at least i have one outstanding game this sports season.
