The shot stick controls and modifiers have definitely taken 2k11 to the next level. The creativity seems endless. I’ve seen more variety in this demo than I saw in all of 2k10.

Here is a video highlighting a more grown up Kobe. The hop step seems more realistic and creates contact unlike 2k10. The “Flick Flick” adds new up and under moves that were sorely limited in 2k10. I swear I’ve seen several different moves already just from using the LT. The foot planting is a pleasant surprise and is really apparent in the video. It feels satisfying getting you defender off balance and pulling up. There were a bunch of other moves I performed as well but I missed those shots so I didn’t add them to the video.

Good video man! I'm still having a hard time doing the "flick flick" move...

That's the flick flick move he meant? I remember that from 2k9..it was basically a glitch it went in almost every time and you could do it from the 3pt line...Here's to hoping its nothing like that..

Are the names on the back of the jerseys readable on the 360? On PS3 they're blurry for all players (except in close-ups).

On the Celtic's jerseys for the most part yes, on the Lakers no, it's just the words blend in with the light colored jerseys. I'm referencing when the game is being played at normal zoom, obviously when the camera pans in closer to any degree both are easily legible. The names are harder to discern on the PS3 much more so than the 360. I think this game honestly looks best on a 360 via VGA than it does a 360 with HDMI, I tried both today and for whatever reason the VGA image looked better than the HDMI one on my 360 on the same TV.

That's surprising. I bet most of them are of him dunking all over the place huh? I love hitting jump shots with him. It's like I'm actually watching a game in real life.

There are plenty of Kobe highlight videos with him dunking over people too. Even I'm a Lakers fan, I don't want him doing that much in the game. Hopefully it's because the demo is on Pro diff and Default GS and roster updates should have him dunking less.

I called a play in the demo, but only once and and I couldn't get it to work again. It was an 1-2 something, an iso for Kobe and he had a big red indicator under him. So far the only time I've used Kobe to get to the bucket was to practice the hop-step layups. Other than that Bean is all beast J work.

The Flick Flicks are nasty, and chaining them from the sig gathers is just wrong.

I also love the rate of foul calls.

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

I need to get my hands on the real game though so I can get used to pulling off some moves with other players. It's going to be fun!!!

Press and hold LT when you receive a pass, release to start dribbling
