Video does the game no justice, imho.

I hope we get to see a full game soon with no corny background music and no cheesy commentary from the person who is playing.

Probably won't be for a week or so though.

I admit I was hyped for 2k14 and still kinda am

That being said, the video is a small letdown. I wasn't expecting any insane game modes or anything gimmicky to sell me on next gen. I was excited about the possibility of more broadcast feel towards the game. Like different dynamic camera cutscenes, more animations that almost seem human life, authentic crowd sounds, and more dynamic commentary, maybe a whole new team all together. Or a different style of presentation, See Kenny's stamp of approval in 2k7. Just stuff like that.I thought something like this wuld be in the game with a 2k backdrop and just a quick clip of these guys saying, lets go to the highlight, Kellog. And proceed to roll the highlight clip, thus not even seeing the need to mouth sync it all all. Just start the dialog the same, and same something dynamic while its rolling the highlight footage, then end it with the same dialogue

I didn't see any of that stuff in the video. For the most part, the crowd still cheers. You can hear that one annoying whistling fan in the BG. Players model look great, no complaints there and No complaints about the court.

Still this game is still on the high end of the hype, considering it will be the most impressive next gen looking game out there. I admittedly expecting a little too soon, maybe through the generation they will be able to

Kind of tough to notice improvements when the video has been compressed to hell and back.

Edit:

This post on GAF will further demonstrate my point: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost...5&postcount=98

That is just the way Gamespot cut the video. Doesn't make sense that there would be anything current gen in the next gen version.

Looks like modded pc version.

Crowd and player models are really good.

Video is compressed....obviously it wont look as smooth as a game you play everyday on your TV.
