I don't understand the issue with the demo. Its not the full game and its only supposed to show you what the game is like, not give you every option or even a full game.

Yeah, I haven't had the "wow factor" when playing an NBA game since 2k6, and to some degree 2k7 because of signature shots, but it's like 10 fold when playing this game. I didn't think an NBA game would be ever be this good.

yeah im really surprised at how guys acting here about the demo...its been 1 quarter 4 min since 2k8 and above or maybe even earlier than that...

NBA 2k8 Demo 1 quarter 4 minutes no commentary

NBA 2k9 Demo 1 quarter 4 minutes no commentary (exception of intro) NOTE: i wish they would bring back the walk up animations..

apologies to 23 i know no past 2k games but im just pointing out demos past...its weird its like nobody downloaded the past demos...

I doubt it's my control skills but I'm having some games where I have ultimate control of my dribble moves, and games right after that where I can't do much of anything on the first try. Maybe it's just all in my head but some games feel better than others. I guess its that consistency issue I need to work out

Did anyone notice that you can't walk bouncing the ball like we were able to do it in 2K10 (or even 2K9, where we could use different speeds to lead the offense with the man carrying the ball).

That sucks, I love to walk through my court cooling down the match a bit. Now we kind of "crawl".

Man, ok guys, my impressions are from the ps3 version...I wonder what you game you guys are looking at on the ps3 version sayin' that the grapics have taken a hit! That's not hardly the truth! Peeps sayin' they see jaggies all over, like someone said early in the thread, adjust your sharpness!! I've never had these problems with any game, probably becasue I have sharpness set to 1 or 2 at all times...Moving on to the actual game, I hate that the demo is only 4 minutes of 1 quarter, but what can you do...Its a teaser and I can't wait for the full retail version!! Next, the game feels alive this year, it feels a lot more organic...I mean I never felt this before in a basketball video game, where everytime out see something different than the next!! And all this from a barebones demo stripped down to nothin' has me so excited I would go to Japan for this game if I thought I could my hands on it a couple of weeks early! I'm in love with Kobe (no homo) man it actually feels like KB this year, his sig moves are AWESOME, he should had this style and swag last year when he graced the cover for the aniversary edition!! I absoutley love how a live the ball seems, and the new animations that added to catch lead passes adds a whole other element to the game...You really have to pay attetion to where and how you pass the ball because you can and will pay if you don't! In closing I'm at work typing this and can't wait to get home to try out the iso moves...After reading some more of the posts I have to try the feathering the stick thingy...As of right now, my iso moves with KB are jus' blah at best...My only gripe with gameplay would be, iso moves still seem to be a little behind, but it could jus' be a learning curve. I can't wait to Oct. 5 gets here, man that seems like a long ways a way even more now!! to 2k for what could be the G O A T

Must say that the demo in my opinion does exactly what it was meant to do. I dont think that we should be upset or anything, it just gives us a feel for the game and exposes us to the new controls.

One thing off the bat that I did notice is how much this game has a live 10 feel plus 2k. (Great Work Wang) I think that this game will meet all expectations.

I'm surprised they kept that reach over the back steal attempt animation. If it's not called a foul 90% of the time with their 'sim' sliders I will be disappointed.
