Ewwwww. The mascot with the noise maker things in the center circle during the intro. Very nice.

For me, that was the BEST part of the game. Momentum shots in all directions looked and felt awesome. better than the regular jumpers which didnt feel as smooth tbh

Darn. No cheerleader babes. And there was some article a while back that said the cheerleaders actually look better this year. I think it was IGN.

Good to hear. We've found with everyone who's tried the game this year that it really starts to open up and become more enjoyable to them as they begin to understand the new controls and nuances of the game. There actually is a bit of a learning curve this year coming from 2K10 as a lot has been added in terms of control. Glad people were able to pick it up and play and have a good time right away.

There was no NBA Today to give the game life. Those who really played the game know how big a piece o the puzzle that was.

Yes it did compare to the full game. You could see many of the same flaws namely lead passing and juiced shooting percentages.

You have to make another video like last year to showcase the different types of shots. The one pushing the right stick in the opposite direction while moving is just too awesome.

This is really great news. This is one of the things that I always criticized 2k for. IMO it was the "other" games strongest feature, and really made the game feel more fun. This can only mean great things for 2k...especially since 2k does so many other things right. Momentum jumpshots..this is a KEY thing for me. Do you know if they can only be done with the right stick, or can they be done with the button?
