The bigger issue with the commentary is that the shifts from play by play to color commentary are so jarring. E.g. Oneal with the defense. We talk about the Clippers... blah blah blah. E.g. 2 Eric Gordon misses the shot You know guys I really like what the Clippers... blah blah blah. [pause] Williams kicks it to Gordon I don't think it would annoy me so much, except that I feel it could be fixed with a couple small changes. E.G. 1 Jermaine Oneal with the defense as we talk about the Clippers... blah blah blah See how that makes the statement flow much better, and keeps it less choppy? Anyway, besides that, I think I'm going to wait because I don't think that the improvements to this game will be worth a full 60 bucks. I like some of the ideas and changes made over the past two games, but I want to wait for the kinks to be better ironed out completely.

You may be trolling but to anyone that isn't willing to spend 60 bucks for a game you're going to play for more than a year - get a job jeez or stop being so stingy.

Although, I do agree with you - the commentary gets very annoying, so I normally just play with music in the background. I can't stand hearing the same thing over and over after playing for a couple days. Also, this is dumb but what's with 2K and conference records. I'm not sure I've ever heard a real announcer mention Team X's record vs. East or West but 2K is always constantly mentioning that stat. Always odd to me.

Gameplay looks awesome, though. The Celtic user could hardly just bully his way into the paint and the separation he got with Pierce on those mid range jumpers were sweet. Subtle moves but the CPU actually reacted. Missed putback dunk by Griffin was awesome, I wish we got to see his athleticism more though. He should threw down a monster dunk on that weak layup he made.
