NBA 2K12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

[CX1329]

Dude's trying to compare 2K12 with 2K9. Even if you're talking about movement, 2K9 was trash in that regard and I really disliked that game, even moreso than 2K4. Crazy warping all over.

Is it October 4th yet?

I've played the demo about three times so far. The first time I played basketball and didn't give up a single field goal (I did give up four free throws, however). The next two times, I played video games and "lost" both times. I can't wait to play this game on the higher difficulty settings!

Like others have mentioned, this feels like a well-polished 2K11, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I was in the camp that thought 2K11 was a good game but had one of two nagging issues holding it back from true basketball replication. From the sample size I have of 2K12 so far, those nagging issues are dead and gone. The foul frequency is a lot better, the players have more weight to them, and the players do what you want them to do.

Again, I ask, is it October 4th yet?

lol coolcras7 I stopped reading after what he wrote there. blackrome has never had anything positive to say just look at his post history.

I"m probably a minority here, but I noticed less jaggies for PS3 demo compare to 2K11.

Wow I see so little disparity between the PS3 & 360! They finally listened and delivered.

Continually the best, most innovative game made. The presentation destroys any game since NFL2k5. It is basically nailing a TNT broadcast.

The controls feel weightier but I can't say I liked all of it. I love the collision detection though.

Can't wait for October 4th.

I wasnt a big fan of player movement in 2k10. It was anything but tight with all the random movements going on.

With all the control you have in 2k12's demo, I'm surprised by your opinion. I feel like they reduced the momentum from 2k11. There has to be a trade off when you have all these move available to you.
