NBA 2K10 Video #1

As sage stated, I'm not a fan of the sound of the nets. Outside of that, I am really liking what I am seeing. Can't wait to get my hands on this.

Due to the economic climate the NBA made cut backs including getting cheaper fabrics for the nets. Awesome that 2k added that little detail.....................................

Looked nice, though I saw the same ball warping issues on the alley-oops that I saw in the Combine (the LeBron one), and it didn't take going into replay mode to see it. Minor gripe, but I wish they'd figure out a way to address that -- probably something we'll see on the next generation of systems or something.

Loved the Lee putback -- those just add a lot of excitement to the game and the commentary was appropriate for the moment. I have a feeling that the yelling will turn into the "OHHHHHHH!" from the last 2 years, but still, it's nice to hear some good reaction from them on big plays. It was hard to tell if the post-play replay was happening immediately after the play or whether Steve edited it in, but I wish they'd show the replays during breaks in action instead of going to the replay and "G Moment of the Game" or whatever (Nash-J-Rich oop) right after the play since it disrupts the flow of the game itself. Again, not sure how that worked, but just a thought.

Definitely looks like a polished version of the Combine, which I suppose isn't a bad thing. I'm still in "have to play it myself before buying" mode, but this video got my hopes up more than they've been in a while. Glad to hear from Pared and others that movement feels a little better as well as defense.

Big concern at this point are the framerate issues and how that will translate to online games, especially Team-Up since that's what I play about 75% of the time. It was such a horrendous mess last year, I really hope they get that under control for release, because it would be a shame to implement the new Crews and all that and the gameplay is chugging. Sadly, I kind of expected framerate issues after the debacle last year, and I guess I was right... they need to figure out a way to have an active crowd without getting that slowdown on certain cameras. Personally, I'd take a scaled-back crowd if the game ran buttery smooth.

Watching the Konsole kings stream they sound better. That's a good thing.

The commentary is way better. Yeah they kept some lines but the new stuff sounds great and it actually sounds like they're discussing a game.

agree with you 100% - i hate absolutely hate this, especially with certain venues and cameras like the 2k cam. personally, i don't care about the crowd and presentation as much as gameplay so if something is holding gameplay back, cut this other stuff out. i could do with fewer people in the crowd and the guy with the white t shirt finally finding his seat instead of constantly walking down the aisles

You guys are complaining about how the net sounds? How about when shots are bricked? Sounds as if the rim was made by Fisher Price.
