NBA 2K11 Videos: GamesCom Demo (DaWolf)

[Facts]

Well nearly everything has been said except for good job on finally giving the real name fonts in the back of the jerseys.

finally some videos are up !

The game looks really smooth. The shot fake and pass fake are really done well IMO. The dribble animations we can see look to compliment players much better than in previous versions. Guys get up into their shot better too, looks more momentum based and less animation based. Guys are moving around much better, a better sense of urgency as was said in a previous developer insight.

From the way the guy is playin' in the demo as Dallas, it has me wondering if the new control scheme will have me in the virtual practice court ironing things out. In any event, me and thumbs cannot wait!!!! (how am I suppose to graduate law school with this?! j.k.)

The Names on the back are still too compressed. I can understand short last names taking up little space but someone like Chris Douglas-Roberts needs a lot of space.

I see they went back to the 2K6 and 2K8 locomotion...for now, lol.

Can't wait.

Hey I'm with ya. At first I wasn't sure if perhaps I was just unfamiliar with the backs of each of these teams' jerseys, and maybe the scrunched name is new on the Mavs uniforms this season, but here's a normal shot of Dirk:


And if you pause this video at the 25 second mark, you'll have a good basis for comparison:

Of course, if the small style is Dallas' new font (my Dirk picture is from the LaFrentz era afterall), then you can throw all this out the window. Small deal, but surely big enough to be noticeable.

Edit: After watching the premier trailer again, all the name fonts looks A-OK. Likely much ado about nothing.

Lebrons shot in the last seconds of the video was dope

Really appreciate the videos from the looks of the videos i dont really see player control for example the automatic crossover when the defender reaches might be wrong tho gotta get hands on the demo sig shots look good and it also looks like they payed attention to upgrading player models just hope we have more control.......we can only wait and see
