It'll affect the way players move on offense with and without the ball and most importantly how players move on defense. The fact that everything is dynamic and that players change and adapt based on their environment is astounding. Not to mention that it affects how the crowd reacts to the game. How anyone can call this fluff is beyond me.

its only fluff, cause its repetitive news. Its impressive, but its nothing that hasn't been mention for a month straight. Why when 2k does something repetitive no one complains? But when BounceTek is being showed month straight, everyone harps on it? Its the same exact thing(in terms of repetitive marketing), but only 2k looks prettier being repetitive. The screenshots are impressive, but where's the core stuff? This game is less than a weak from release? Even GTA V released key features before 9 days into the release window.

Would be far from useless if it was just faces. Here.. With Eco-Motion, the entire NBA experience comes to life in ways never before seen in a video game, including crowd reactions, atmosphere, coaching strategies, real player voices, and most of all the emotion of the game. Player animations are dynamic, and evolve on the fly as you play. Player personalities and emotions factor into the game as well, affecting how players perform and even behave on the court. No longer will players look like robots on the court. Now you will feel the emotion of the game in a living, evolving basketball environment.

Sorry, I assumed you were just talking about the emotional aspect of the engine.

As long as the game looks like nba basketball and moves like nba basketball everything else is secondary. We are now in the myplayer age. I will give 2k credit for making a true next gen game. Their artist and mo cap people did a phenomenal job. But if 2k insider still butchers all the ratings it won't matter to me. Because online play will be ruined for me

You couldn't be more wrong. God I wish Madden NFL would just END. Horrible game. HORRIBLE.

Ecomotion is so much more than just the faces....it's the player movement, the ball physics, the lighting, the animation variation....it's the whole engine....

It would be perfectly suited to football...and not wasted at all...

For you to say emotional aspect of football would be useless is laughable to me but that's a pointless debate.
