It's that scoop layup he does.

This trailer was off the hook! Your not impressed because you helped make NBA live. lol j/k
But seriously nothing gets people more excited than watching Highlights.. top ten ESPN ****. Of course we want our games to play sim but we wanna know that we can drop some sickness on fools heads if we catch em sleeping. Plain and simple.

I think so.

And sorry KDRE, I almost had a discharge also.

Damn! Tons of new layups, crosses and dunks which look the best ever. I'm downright impressed.

- Kobes' dunk

- PP's layup after the spin move

- Ray Allen's the ball behind your back move

- Lebron's left-handed lay in.

Yeah that must be it.

Honestly though... it's just an observation and people can "act a fool" all they want over a trailer. They're the ones buying the game to do what they want with it. I get more excited over the intricacies and little nuances.

Oh my god...that trailer is crazy. Will that song be on the soundtrack?

Looks great... some of those new animations (especially the change shot animations like that Kobe dunk that starts at 52 seconds) look absolutely perfect. I'm sure we won't see all the animations in this one for a LONG time due in part to the shot adjustments. Very impressive trailer, but yeah, doesn't answer some of my nagging questions. I just need the demo, that's the bottom line at this point..

I liked the trailer for what it was. Fun, exciting, showcased new animations, well edited, etc. It's good that people are excited. Nice to see a few pages go by without this turning into a fight, or a nitpick contest.

Also, I like looking at basketball highlights, and this was very much like looking at real highlights, and didn't feel like looking at video game highlights.
