Thanks for the link fella. Game definitely looks better! Still a dunkfest though. I'll definitely be downloading today.

Where is that option? I must've missed it because all mine were Finals games.

Dropseven, this game is ANYTHING but a dunkfest on All-Star. I got 1 dunk the whole time from penetration with Kobe and a single dunk with Dwight in the paint right under the hoop. The CPU blew by me a couple times in my early games and finished strong, but most of the time it's a contested layup, not a dunk.

Its in the game, just not the demo. You should see this option on the retaill copy. I think the crowd is set to reg season on the demo. Doesnt quite sound like playoffs or finals. But the atmosphere is still nice for the demo.

Big improvement from 09. I'm loving the player controls, especially using different guys in the hangar. CP3 is the most enjoyable to use for me and seems to be the best mid range shooter, which would be accurate based off of the DNA.

The animations still aren't quite up to par, IMO. There's a ton of speeding up on the dunks still, although I do like most of the layup animations. Sometimes the way contact is created is pretty awkward, it just doesn't look right. Other times it can look great.

It's pretty easy to dunk in traffic. I really hope this is toned down in the final build. I'm throwing down windmills over Bynum and Gasol with VC. I also pulled off some standing dunks with VC where he's sort of magnetized to the basket. Kobe can dunk almost at will, shades of 2k8 here lol.

This game is beautiful in HD. The colours are incredible.

this game does not feel like 2k so it will take some getting use to, but NBA Live is definately back man.

The presentation by default is Finals... that's why they show the Finals overlays and whatnot. I thought they said we can switch it for the demo, but I didn't see the option. Someone let me know if you notice it somewhere though... not a big deal to me, just curious.

Yep, I'm used to the shot stick, but after playing this Live Demo, I can see the potential with the controls being really special.

In the final build will there be an option to make the dribbling on the right stick camera relative though? That's a big thing for me.

Defintlty better then last year. It still feels similar how how the players moves feeling like you pushing against a invisible wall. Ball/net animation are 100x better, they could not of been worse, real refreshing. Good sound/presentation. Free throws still suck.
