Only played 2 games in a zone, didn't see anything out of the ordinary in regards to intercepting passes. Small sample though.

Not feeling this game at all. 2K10 will be my B-ball fix for this year. Very disappointed again.

After playing for a little while you were always able to tell if a shot was going in or missing right after the release. It ruined the game for me (not being a d-bag, it really did). I have a ps3 and wont see a demo till after release (because that makes sense) but my question to those who have the demo and noticed the bug last year: Is it still in the game?

This has been fixed.

haha didn't notice the great defense change? JK though. Thats your choice and I completely understand it.

The reason I am loving this game, is it lets me play defense the way I wanna play it. On the other game, I had to be the Center and stop all the cutters that were wide open since people went off to double team everybody. And there were no contact animations.

In this game, I can play off-ball and try and shut down their top scorer. I can try and deny ball and not worry too much about help D. If my man gets beat I will help, but I'm not going to double team because my CPU teammates can hold their own.

Also for the 2-3 zone thing, I have not seen tons of steals. But the CPU takes some questionable shots. I murdered the CPU with a zone, 15-3.

I'm liking the demo, even more so than Live. Like most, I'm awaiting dynasty details.

I think EA did a great job with the college atmosphere. Hopefully next year they will try to add a lot more of the gyms/arenas to make the atmosphere even better. Who doesn't want to go on a scoring run in their home gym and hear Gus go nuts?

So I played the demo.

The presentation is top notch. Very impressive.

It's fun...don't get me wrong...but something about EA sports attempts at animating Basketball moves just irks me.

The shooting animations pale in comparison to both NBA 2k and College Hoops 2k IMO. They just seem a tad jerky and "off" to me. Not as realistic looking as the 2k series.

I feel like a have very solid control over my players in the demo. Also...I played on All American and I don't think Duke missed a shot against me in 3 games.

Overall a fun demo...but the gameplay doesn't "wow" me near as much as the presentation does.

It will be interesting to see which BBall I play more of....my dynasty in EA NCAA BBall or my association in NBA 2k.
