NBA 2K9 Video: Spurs vs. Rockets

[volantPenguin]

Looks great...

There are still some areas to work on such as choppiness between animations (i.e. when alston stands straight up after receiving the opening tip, moving around in the defensive stance, some passes/dribbling seemed a little too "magnetic"/fast) and the color commentary

I enjoyed the contact while dribbling, overall presentation, alley-oops, falling (finley flop, parker layup), graphics, better running animation, crowd noise

Overall, very nice...can't wait for the demo and to pick it up!

Here's the link to the video on YouTube. He's also got the other vids that were put up on here.

Looks great! One thing: In all the vids I watched, seems like there are too many blocked shots, which is probably something that can be fixed with a slider. GREAT GAME!

I thought the amount of blocks were fine, especially in the context that they happened. Almost all the blocks I seen were done in situations where you'd expect a block, like a guy going up weak.

Man, I think you and I will still be using 45 at Game Speed... it's just that, I felt in 2k8 "45" is already perfect...

Watched this vid again, this time just concentrating on the crowd, and I must say it is simply awesome! They had Thunder sticks while Parker was taking his FT. Clapping and standing on every made basket by the hometeam totally in sync with the audio. But what really got me was that sequence when Yao stole the ball, the crowd started to roar, leading to a fast break with a TMac dunk and the whole place went nuts! Everyone jumped up clapping and cheering, and they stayed standing chanting "Defense" even cupping their hands in their mouths and clapping in unison, then when Parker made the J they all hushed up and sat down. for the amount of detail...

Loving the teamate AI movements too! I gotta get my hands on this game soon!

Yeah, I use 45 both online and offline so I'm sure I'll be going 45 or 40 on this one

Did you guys see what a stride TP took on that last fast break? He started his layup animation and took 2 steps from the top of the free throw line circle to the goal and it looked marvelous
