Maybe some animations are even scaled back for the demo (it would go along with the missing commentary, plays, etc) 3) No commentary = good commentary for me . I guess as a first post it looked too "troll-y" so the joke was taken wrong and got me flamed a bit but atleast it got my 2 cents in among the 1000+ other posts. I did enjoy the demo and will definitely keep playing it to get my basketball fix. I guess I'm in the minority that was hoping for a little bit more.

I guess you finally went to download the demo after the fact, huh?

I am conflicted. I downloaded the demo on the PS3 to compare to the 360 version. Much to my dismay - the 360 version controls significantly better. The controller feels better and is more responsive (plus I like the bearded D Fish better than the Goatee version ). I know it "just a demo" but I am concerned - I wanted to buy the PS3 version due to Move and 3d support - but the control is what makes this game for me. I can't in good conscious go with the version that has 'worse" control.

Anybody else try both? Am I the only one seeing this?

yeah...it sucks!! my brother came over yesterday and wanted to play versus...

i play it over and over just to get the timing and controls like the one momentus posted...its a thing of beauty if you get it down like he does...

A good OFFLINE game, maybe? At least you used periods.

Yeah, I need to be able to call play reliably. Czar's videos got me going. So has Momentous's video, but I could never do what he does.

Jordan never got a full head of steam away from the basket though. Not the same man. Seems hard to do because I keep getting a cut. We will see.

I think you're in the minority for the people that have been skus man. I have a PS3, but I did not download the demo for it because I have it on the 360 already. But most folks have said that the PS3 version felt tighter to them. So, I don't know. You are a first.

^ THIS. CAN KG EVEN SHOOT FROM THAT FAR AWAY?
