Two things ...

- Could you always shoot free throws with the face button? (X/square) Because you can now.

- Has anyone taken a charge yet? There were a couple of times where I was in good position but didn't get the call. Maybe I just have to get the hang of it.


You really have to play a bit to get a good grasp of the controls ... but once you do, the amount of control you have over your player is ridiculous. It's not perfect, but it might be the best 2K has offered. The addition of momentum jumpers completely changes the game.

Could someone please tell me if they know when the demo will be released in the Australian PlayStation store? I have a ps3 and it still isnt up there yet

Finally played the demo on PS3, WOW, I need the final version of this game. The demo is unreal, the game is so fluid and the defensive A.I. is great, and 2K finally gave us the type of total control jump shooting I have been asking for, reminds me of NBA IN The Zone or NBA Inside Drive, im loving this so far. The momentum is good on here because if you try to zip around to much on offense or defense you can loose control of your man or get him out of position to get beat off the dribble. Nice job 2K!!!!

I managed to take several charges, got one called on rondo with fisher in the backcourt while he was bringing the ball up, it was hilarious.

Also, for Aussies, Australian PS store updates in about 3 or 4 hours from now. You can just create a US profile to download and install it and then it lets you play on any profile.

Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

I cannot find the demo on the store. Have searched for 2k11, nba 2k11 and get nothing. Im on ps3. What do I do?

Just go to view all games and go down to NBA 2K11...

Not even close to the video in question, but nice try.

Jordan did exactly what you described: acted like he was sprinting away from the basket, did u-turn and dunked on their heads. You don't remember the Knicks complaining to the league office that he was cheesing?

My friends and I can't bring ourselves to understand why they didn't have multiple player. Last night we sat there handing one controller around the room. So that everyone could blowout the Celtics. Literally everyone blew them out. The game feels like its on rookie. Its beyond too easy. Kobe doesn't miss. I don't know how you guys keep playing it over and over.

Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

I didn't like defending either, where my guy was standing still and without me even pressing a button or direction, he was sucked into a defensive animation and pretty much shadowed the ball handler.

Are you sure you're playing the demo?

Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

haha. My favorite type of commentary. Muted, just like when I watch on TV

Now if only there was a way to turn off announcers and keep arena noise during the real thing...

You watch televised games on mute????

Re: NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

Couple things to clear up:

1) Attached Bynum looks old, like really old to me. Maybe it's the shadows on his face. Other people don't think so?
2) I hope I'm wrong about seeing too many repeated animations. I think KyotoCarl is probably right that it is only the first quarter. Maybe some animations are even scaled back for the demo (it would go along with the missing commentary, plays, etc)
3) No commentary = good commentary for me . I guess as a first post it looked too "troll-y" so the joke was taken wrong and got me flamed a bit but atleast it got my 2 cents in among the 1000+ other posts.

I did enjoy the demo and will definitely keep playing it to get my basketball fix. I guess I'm in the minority that was hoping for a little bit more.

I guess you finally went to download the demo after the fact, huh?
