No I tried different things, I could not get it to work right in 09. Too many deflections.

So how long will this demo be for gold members only?

Seriously this game has improved 10 fold...

I'm REALLY liking this one guys...

The presentation,graphical style ,movement and animations all click.

It's not A+ stuff but it sure is solid stuff.

Can't wait for the full retail.

Something about it that makes it feel fun like CH2k2 on gamecube. And THATS a compliment coming from me I absolutely loved that game.

I play with baseline high in Live and they don't have that in this game. They have similar views but they are too far back. The one thing I do like about this game is how crisp the analog passing is. It seems to always hit your man on target. However, at this point that alone wouldn't be enough to make me pick this up. I'll have to give it some more burn later..

Pappy, I agree with this 110%!

I was reading the first 3 pages of impressions and couldnt help thinking, "Am I playing the same demo as everyone else?" Before your post, I dont recall reading one comment about what you just said.

The very first things I noticed about the game left me completely underwhelmed. I just couldnt help thinking that the gameplay engine felt a few years old and lacked polish.


Players look bit overly bulky as if the design team evaluated previous year's players and said we need to beef them up

Gameplay feels artificially sped up and stiff rather than a more natural realistic quick paced college game.

Range of motion and player movement feels very limited a little too precanned

Some of the passing down court looks horrendously unnatural like straight bullet passes rather than having amore natural trajectory to them

Players under the boards have that Pop Tart toaster oven spring to their jumps that was carried over from the previous engine

The splash screens, pop ups, commentary...... everything just feels like its running at 1.5X speed

I completely agree that the gameplay and animations feels like a step back from Live.....and is even further back from the natural lifelike feel of 2K10

I didnt get that...."WOW this game is so devilishly addictive" feel that I got when playing CH2K8 or even Live 10 for the first time

However, I do think the CBS presentation adds tremendously to the presentation of the game


Im somewhat dissapointed....
