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

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

I am conflicted. I downloaded the demo on the PS3 to compare to the 360 version. Much to my dismay - the 360 version controls significantly better. The controller feels better and is more responsive (plus I like the bearded D Fish better than the Goatee version ). I know it "just a demo" but I am concerned - I wanted to buy the PS3 version due to Move and 3d support - but the control is what makes this game for me. I can't in good conscious go with the version that has 'worse" control.

Anybody else try both? Am I the only one seeing this?

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.

yeah...it sucks!! my brother came over yesterday and wanted to play versus...

i play it over and over just to get the timing and controls like the one momentus posted...its a thing of beauty if you get it down like he does...

Are you sure you're playing the demo?

i believe its that defensive help slider from last year where the player is pretty much put into position by the cpu...its definitely in the demo...

look i going to keep it 100 here about this game.this right here 2k11 is tha truth homie and thats coming from a NBA live player but NBA live is garbage and elite will be the same,but i been playing basketball video games sense double dribble so it wont be that hard to learn the controls and dominate. if i not the best 2k11 player this yr then who but i just hope 2k11 is just as good online then it is offline cause all the real ballers play online. if you can't get a game of 2k11 online running at 60 frames then this game an't worth all the hype it get cause wats a game without good online play??????????

A good OFFLINE game, maybe? At least you used periods.

Its a nice job overall guys....But I can't play this. I'll wait for retail version.

Yeah, I need to be able to call play reliably. Czar's videos got me going. So has Momentous's video, but I could never do what he does.

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?

Jordan never got a full head of steam away from the basket though. Not the same man. Seems hard to do because I keep getting a cut. We will see.

I think you're in the minority for the people that have been skus man. I have a PS3, but I did not download the demo for it because I have it on the 360 already. But most folks have said that the PS3 version felt tighter to them. So, I don't know. You are a first.

Damn man KG kept making turn around jumpers on me when he was like 2 inches from the 3 point line. Well sucks that the CPU is always putting in subs and that I can't. I wanted to use Steve Blake and Matt Barnes for a little. Also they subbed in almost everybody except Shaq haha.

^ THIS. CAN KG EVEN SHOOT FROM THAT FAR AWAY?

Yes. He's only been one of the best shooting PF for the last 15 years or so.

Welp, I've got the iso controls pretty much down pat. The more I play the more I love the different combinations that be pulled of in conjuction with the shot stick. I guess the only gripes I have are lack the lack of a quick, tight, compact spin move without picking up the dribble and KB missing the Jordan spin fake to fade move he does alot more often than some of the other moves he's been given. Can't have all I guess, at least not yet.

No, you're right, it's not the exact same thing. I was being facetious; people pointing out cheesing against the CPU in a demo makes me chuckle.

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

The demo was good, the gameplay is awesome, dribblings and no can animations thank you Mike Wang, but no Celtics, rly 2k?
On ball D is with L2 again so no problems, I can play it good, IMO defense in the paint and passing is vastly improved, the bigs can really block shots and put bodys and contacts anywhere...

Looking forward for the release date...

You have a point. Anything with Kobe using the DEFAULT skill and style is too easy and therefore, cheese.

It looked like it would have been well defended if the defender had contested the shot and the help defender was able to peel off of his guy in time...

Yes. He's only been one of the best shooting PF for the last 15 years or so.

Seriously, during his MVP year, he was arguably the best shooting big man in the league, at least from about 20 feet in, Dirk still had him beat from outside. I think people forget what KG is capable of doing, just because he doesn't shoot long jumpers as much these days doesn't mean that he can't.

I like how it feels... BUT IT IS UNPLAYABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I hate that camera angle, The feel of the game is enough to warrant me to buy it, But I cannot wait to play it in 2K Cam
