THe game is great but the isomotion controls are really tough to get a feel on keep finding myself not executing moves though i did start to freak Ray allen nasty but i exaggerated my half back spin instead of drving to the rim so he recovered back on me

oh god tipped passes is an issue? man...if enough people complain then zipped passes will happen all over again (i really hope 2k dont buckle to the whiners)...to me its just playing smart and not forcing the pass...

Ok is it just my TV or do the graphics look niiiiiice?

Some cool things I saw.

1. Kobe, Pierce, and Ray's jumpers look authentic (which im sure wasnt easy for Pierce)

2. Saw Jermaine O'neal get INJURED. He tried to go up over Pau and there was noticeablt contact, then he went down awkwardly and rolled his ankle it looked like. It played at the end like Emeka's injury on the NO/ATL video yesterday.

3. Rhondo had Fisher on him and drove hard to his right and did his one handed up fake to let Fisher fly by. But Fish didn't bite all the way, so when Rhondo pivoted around to raise into his shot, Fish was still on him. Instead of forcing the bad release, Rhondo passed out of it mid-air to Pierce. And it all looked so smooth.

That can't be bad for a sim player.

I'm talking about "good" passes. There's too many times I've noticed that the player I passed too could have easily received the ball if it was delivered to a decent location and not thrown to the only spot the defender could make a play on the ball.

Gotta get my hands on the demo because, quite honestly, this vid makes the game seem like 2K10, overall. Possibly the capture but the Gamescon vid was just so superior to all other vids shown, imo. Unless it pops up on the PSN within the next hour or so, I technically won't get a chance to play until I get home from work tomorrow morning. Sizzuucckss.
