Watching that tiny gameplay vid I'm trying to determine that if you press turbo do they do that annoying hesitation dribble....

Hmmm...players might be able to fight through screens better instead be stuck to the screener.

2K should be nailing things like that at this point. I don't see how they're so far ahead and just resting on their previous success.

I don't get the feeling 2K is resting on their previous success at all. A lot of the stuff the 2K guy threw out in that interview was likely said simply to evoke positive energy. However, there was one thing he mentioned that is no doubt truthful. He said they've never shown at E3 before because they'll very much right in the middle of their production cycle. It's sort of like unveiling a new highway after asphalt has been layed down on part of one lane.

Before people bring up casual setting's just remember casual settings doesn't change the bad spacing or the skating or the bad collision detection.

I'm sorry but if you're showing something like this in June you're going to run into problem with customers after this is released.

Not to mention you just showed some BS dunk contest featuring a mini button-mashup & you want your loyal consumers to pay 5 bucks for it?

I see a NBA 2k14 wish list going 60 pages before next February smh..

1. Game looks to be running smoother from what I can tell from playing on my 360
2. That was a new falling layup animation by Westbrook. There was contact after the layup that I don't recall ever seeing before. It looks like they are trying to remove warping so possibly more contact in the paint. Westbrook had no place to land
3. Player models look to be the same to be honest I guess this is probably the last thing to be updated being that you don't want make a model too early as things can change between now and October.
4. All Star Slam dunk looks like for the casual fans with the guitar hero button combos lol.
5. I am not the biggest accesory guy but I did notice they had Durant's last year shoes on not this year.
6. I saw no out of the ordinary speed boost so hopefully the CPU speed issue is fixed.

My problem is that his drive to the hoop is just one continuous, smooth animation straight to the hoop. Nothing knocked him off balance or anything.

Honestly, I rather have the continuous, smooth animation than to drive and my players does some stupid contact animation layup.

I love 2k and to be honest if the new game had real sneakers,better.passing and the fit jerseys I'd be happy. This all star weekend slam dunk contest on the other hand is a HUGE disappointment!! They come up with that??!!! Im speechless on the dunk contest it ruins the immersion with the matrix slowdown and the guitar hero buttons. I hope like hell they smarten up and change this. This may be 2k getting a little too cute with adding things.

Looks the same just new scoreboard

When passing the ball, players are not doing unnecessary movements to catch it. They makes me so mad when I pass the ball they become wide receivers and try to catch the ball behind their head with one head.

My guess is that the layup animation (the stick was moved to shoot) started at the top of the key. Nothing branched off from it.

Maybe it's expectations from seeing all of the other E3 videos. But I just feel like that shouldn't happen at this point with such a good game.

We're not talking for them to bring in something groundbreaking here.

But I saw enough of that (especially from the CPU) in 2K12.

I respectfully dispute the quoted. There's a reason 2K has historically refused to release footage of their "new" game this early in the year. It's because they're right in the middle of production. The bits and pieces we've seen at this time of year in seasons past very frequently look nothing like the eventual game itself.

Also, while I agree the Slam Dunk Contest controls are nothing less than startling, customers will not have to five dollars from it. They're just have to put five dollars down toward their eventual purchase.

I'm sorry, but I AM noticing some minor improvements in the gameplay. I'm about to watch the clip again after watching it about 20+ times already. I don't care all that much about the AI reactions, because I'll adjust (like I do every year) the sliders to make the AI play like I want them to play.

To be fair, most of the other E3 videos came from games who do not have a yearly October 4th release date. Most non-sports games have extended development cycles that likely extend beyond that of a yearly sports game. I feel like the 2K13 footage could have barely been over halfway complete. For reference, here's what "2K12" looked like last year:
