Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Impressions (PS3 only for now)

i love it. what i can already tell is that the bigs really feel like bigs. gasol feels so tall. no more standing under the rim and scoring with small guys you will get blocked for sure, and on the other hand no more blocking bigs with small guys.

i tried to iso my way in only to be called for a offensive foul nice touch

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Impressions (PS3 only for now)

I love the game and I am very hard on sports games. The controls are alot more responsive than in years past, I don't see as much "gliding" this year you can kind of feel the steps being taken. The animations are really smooth there are less awkward movements. Kobe is sick, i love his running fade away using the shot stick.

Re: NBA 2K9 Demo Impressions (PS3 only for now)

A walkthrough of my quick playthrough before the class:


The demo kicks right into Play Now - Pau Gasol is a nightmare to defend and will be taking former UConn Husky Ray Allen at Boston on the 2K Sports Network.

As someone using an SDTV, let me say these players look absolutely WOW. The menu is also a lot prettier, but you guys probably have noticed that already.


No Clark Kellog/Kevin Harlan in the intro, or I jsut wasn't looking. More in the next post.

fast breaks are really smooth also the players keep running. I see more player movement than in years past in the half court offense.

Seems like more blocking and offensive fouls. And highly contested layups a really hard to hit, feels real.
