NBA 2K11 Preview and New Screenshots (IGN)

Mike Miller cut his hair off.... he has a lowboy now

Hearing how players cut with urgency is a plus. But still no word about pull up jumpers. Or I should just figure players like Chris Paul will get a shot where they actually jump.

Total passing control's a nice import from Live. No sense in people acting like that's committing some kind of crime. It's an excellent basketball gameplay feature.

Solid info. My favorite excerpt came when explaining certain button alterations during certain dunks and can initiate a user controlled rim hang. I like the sound of that.

Only thing I'm hoping for now after reading that preview is

1.Better Color Palette Orando's Blue to light and Philly's Red Mainly
2.Higher Resolution when zoomed out
3.Fix some Courts(Spurs floor hurts my eyes) and some of the Logos are too small
4.Not allowing a player to cut easily which cuts down on passing in the paint
5.In the paint defense
6.More CPU blocking
7.Smarter A.I.
8.Pull up Jumpers and Shooting coming off of screens
9.Crowd noise,Atmosphere(like Live 10's but expanded)

Finally we have actual controllable player movement, we are gonna be able to do the cone minigame now.

Plus:

Manual Post up
Fake passes
More plays
TCPassing
Sense of urgency cuts.


This thing is looking to be pretty pretty pretty good.

oohh...i wonder if you can pull off a fake pass during a drive animation
