NBA 2K10: Exclusive First Look (Gamespot)

[Clarke_311]

I'm looking forward to this, I love career modes and the "My Player" feature looks like it could be decent. If the commentary's as good as they say it is too, that makes me excited. And all that other stuff too looks promising. Overall, I'm looking forward to this game and can't wait to see what else is new in 2K10!!!

the career mode soundsfun and glad to hear they are trying to fix the Defense. but if they dnt fix the basic fundamentals of defense i will cry lol
in 2k9 you can basically walk in the paint with no help D or decent rotating D. If you really try you can score all your points with your star player but not alot of people do that. Passing is ridiculous in traffic..its just the passes they decide to do in situations..lastly animations look great but what the point if you cnt control your player..im sorry but 2k9 was their worst PLAYING basketball game just IMO.

yea they mentioned that lighting is improved but based on that arena screen, the lighting still sucks... but they did well last year adding anti-aliasing (360) and cleaning up the image quality so I have hope they'll fix the lighting to be more dynamic/realistic as well for 2k10

That read was worth the long wait, no more stuck in a double team animation, spacing on the court, d-league, and 82games.com is why I will be sticking with the big dog on the block again this year.

Can't wait to see some gameplay videos and make my final judgement well to see if my choice may change.

Well, I know 2k will be on the surgery table for the next month or so.... So I will just stay both games have some strong features this year. Plus I loved reading that the D-League is in this year & the floow spacing has been addressed as well as expanding on player tendencies.... But as usual, the bottom line will come down to which game gets the "feel" of the NBA right and nails the gameplay.

But you might also notice a sense of space on the hardwood that simply wasn't present in previous iterations. As developers put it to me, that's because the proportions between player size and the floor had gotten a bit out of whack in older games, resulting in players that were slightly larger than in real life. The team took a look at all of the player models in NBA 2K10 and made size adjustments across the board, with the result of having a slightly more open feel to the play on the court.

this is what i wanted to hear. since 2k2. I hope they really fix the cpu's off ball D
