Here's the thing - this is about the only sports video game outside of The Show (and maybe FIFA) that truly gets it. You see for yourself the dramatic jump this team has taken transitioning to the PS4, and it's obvious:
1) They are committed to developing an awesome product because they know their fans are diehards and they have a reputation to maintain.
2) That the PS4/X1 is capable of some incredible things.
Just after seeing what they've released so far, we are
this close to having a near life-like NBA simulation game. All the folks here who have put up with EA's BS for years finally see what's truly possible with this hardware & talented people. Those things give confidence to users when they make their little requests because it'll probably happen whether it's crowd noise, shoes, courts, faces, whatever - 2K has delivered time and time again, and they just showed that they're coming to play on NG consoles.
The future looks bright, and that's why people are nitpicking - because we're seriously that close... and people just love the NBA.
