NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

There is more "meat" to players, as they have weight on them, something that you had an idea of in the Combine. Out of the box, it has a more realistic feel. I don't feel the need to lower the speed so far, which is a first. Very nice... the weight to the players lends to this immensely. You can't just go by the defender... I wouldn't say dramatically. You can still get to the hoop, although it's not like last year where you can just go through people. Plus players are missing more ala 2k8 pre-patch.

I'm glad you said the defense is like NBA 2k8 pre-patch. That is definitely good news.

Simple.

How's the arena sounds? Lighting and everything? Can you tell the difference between a regular season game and playoffs as far as the atmosphere? Can you choose atmosphere like in Live?

The post offense is phenomenal. My gripe with it is, just like last year, you feel like once a shot is up, it's going in. Hard to explain. The system needs a controllable release.

Red headbands at home, not sure about away.

Honestly... the graphics are insane. I'm blown away that they were able to put work into the graphics. Player faces are hit or miss... as in the shots, Melo looks terrible, but the courts are hi resolution once again.

I honestly would say the textures are up there with Live's textures. The game pops more, but not TOO MUCH as I feel it does in Live.

Something to note, the reds all seem to be slight shades off. I know it's not my TV... they just don't have some colors the correct shade to the naked eye, specifically reds.

I did notice some frame-rate stutter here and there. Seems like it is in some arenas once again.

Sounds are INCREDIBLE. You can close your eyes and it sounds like a real game.

My biggest beef is that damn overhead two handed pass animation. It really throws the look of everything else off. It needs to go!

One awesome thing... if you take a 3 in front of the away teams bench, they will scream at you.

OH! Vince Carter has a new shot too. Very nice and lazy, he doesn't kick that leg up anymore.

Good suggestion 23, gifs of some shots that impressed you or just players with new shots. Curious to see how Bosh, Carter, Dirk, McGrady and Kevin Martin jumpers look this year.

I'm going to make my own thread for this. I'm trying to keep up with this thread while working on a presentation I have for class tomorrow morning. .gifs are probably out of the question for tonight.

Still there

Hows the cpu play on levels higher than pro?

Does the CPU cheese like in 2k9(leade passes, alley oops, passing up open jumpers to drive, force there way to the basket)?
