NBA 2K10 Q&A: Retail Copy in Hand

Basically the CPU gave up the drive and kicked it out for an open shot, which is good because Lewis was coming over from the strong side block (Barnes was weakside wing). So they are certainly collapsing and opening up the perimeter.

Can you control who is involved on a rotation/defensive help? For example, even if I'm beaten by Tony Parker on a drive to the basket, I still don't want my teammates that are guarding Mason Jr. or Ginobli to leave their men on the perimeter, giving them open looks at a three ball.

Thanks!

I was hoping someone could tell me if you can "SUPERSIM" quarters in the game and then jump back into the game? Thanks in advance.

Wasn't it there last year?

i find it amazing how headbands are such a hot topic in this forum. i just wanna know if this game plays and feels and looks and sounds better than the previous games, that's all. yeah, accessories are a nice touch, but not the only thing i look for in a basketball game.

mo, pared...

since you have played both games, could we ask what game will you play more?

Hope so too...

Also, you said there was slowdown or framerate issues at times? Have you tried 2K Cam? That was brutal last year even post patch.

As someone who only played the game on default sliders last year: does the AI try fewer alley-oops? Seemed like they'd always get three or four on me a game last year (default settings, with the difficulty upped one from default). Also, is the AI just a tad less skilled on jump shots out-of-the-box, compared to 2K9?

I've heard NBA2K10 has adopted a ratings spread, a la Madden 10. How effective is it? Good move by 2K, in your opinion?

Finally, a rather specific question: is PG Sean Singletary in the game, either with the 76ers or as a free agent? Does he have his real face if so, or a generic face? Could you post an in-game picture of him if he is in the game?

Thanks.
