Another note from all these videos:

Germans cannot play Basketball.

I wonder if there is lead passing or passing where in the past you could use the left stick to guide a person to where they want them to be. Im seeing a lot of bad passes where the guy whos supposed to be catching the pass not even doing anything.. It's hard to judge that without playing and seeing the details of it in action but I thought it was interesting. maybe the in game awareness is saying "im being guarded by 2 guys and im in a crowd. I will not even attempt to catch that terrible pass you are trying to feed me". In which case I love it... I think one example of this is a inbounds pass at 4:30 by the CPU. Wade is doubled and not moving.. The other guy at the top of the arch is too far away. CPU TO.

Yep the lead pass feature is still the game.. the passing controls are going to be something similar to this according to a IGN preview:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6q_xd-TogMk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6q_xd-TogMk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

Actually the pass deflections actually remind me a lot of Live 10, and in that game trying to spam passes in the paint was never a good idea. So the whole pass issue may finally be addressed this year..

Don't know if freestyle passing made the transition into this game but if it did I'm going to be even more excited that was one of my fave features in Live 10.

You need to get on over there and show 'em how it's done, man. It's only a 4 hour road trip.

YESSSS!!! It seems harder to drive into the paint. I love the new animations too. Its too bad they didnt change the half calf sleeves.

Is it me, or Chris Bosh's photo (00:06) looks like it's his virtual version? Seems like a 2K11 Bosh rather than the real Bosh. Is this guy for real?

I'm thinking (and HOPING) they are using cyber faces this year for everyone

Absolutely love the presentation aspect of it. Out side of animations, I can't see much difference from 2k10. Even the player models look almost identical.

I'm not sure what you expect to see. You're not going to get a complete graphical upgrade every year. From what what we've heard from people who have played it, the game looks much better, you can even tell in these poor quality videos. The fluidity of the gameplay completely separates it from 2K10, this looks nothing like 2K10.

I love that with 5 seconds to go, the time actually showed up at the top of the screen. Kind of cool that you can look up to that to determine when to make your move, like in the NBA where they have to look up at the time. If only it was up before 5 seconds.

Yeah you're right, I should and actually did last year. I posted the first Live 10 vids last year from Gamescom.

Well, I guess with simulation mode being relevant online this year (and maybe actually working?!) I should be able to finally contest you guys online...cannot wait

Well, either way :wink:, like I said, it's so much fun playing a national competition online...lov' it
