Wasn't talking about stopping him. Umm yeah he's tough to stop but, his movements aren't so quick and compact that it's hard to stay in front of him.........

The only real difference in control this year are the new post controls and jumpshots..this is just going by the demo tho. Other than that..differences im seeing are just moreso the WAY u perform moves..the moves either being the same or different animations for them. The locomotion is not that much different at all to me. Post defense still feels the same outside of having a bigger window to strip. I do notice when somebody is backing you down u can move back quicker..a la "pulling the chair out"...thats nice. I cant see how you can sit there and say "not much else can be done"...there will always be alot that can be done..i could go on a rant but the only thing that would do is paint a picture as if i think the game is bad..its not at all..i just dont think its a huge improvement like alot of people in here are portraying..i dont want to mislead people who havnt played yet..im just trying to be honest as possible. Some of you guys are literrally making posts as if the game is completely different than 2k11..its just not..its a improvment yet..but dont say huge man lol.

Well as a true NBA/2k/and Basketball fan I must say the improvements are HUMONGOUS!!!!!!


They might not be to you, but they are to me and anyone who takes a true NBA/Basketball simulation seriously.The things that you might consider small are a huge improvement to me because I look at the bigger picture.

The way they changed the post game really separates the finesse players from the power players and the face-up players from the back to the basket players.

When you play with Dirk you're force to shoot mid range jumpers and keep your defender off balance because he doesn't have the strength to get deep in the post, not to mention CPU (and probably users) can actually block your post shots this year if you don't keep them guessing.

In 2k11, you could get deep in the post anytime you wanted to with any player.

The way they they fix the contact really makes strength an important attribute offensively and defensively.

That's a HUGE improvement to me. You're force to simulate the player in order for him to be effective.

[Gramps91]

Anybody know what time demo is released for ps3

[Pared]

Enjoying the game. The single player experience will certainly be better this year.

I still have a problem with guys dumping on 2k11. That game can hold its own and isn't leaving my collection.

For people calling out the layup line, I'm not so sure. I'm blocking shots left and right with Chandler and Dirk with the help side defense. I'm going to have to watch out for that when I play with my boy D. Rose. Also, I'm loving the lack of the out-of-bounds force field. I've turned the ball over a couple of times on a drive with Fernandez and the CPU stepped out driving baseline with Lebron.

Can't express how much I hate you for having consoles.
