[Mintsa]

Didn't want to start a new thread for this but...........is OS (maybe Steve, if he gets a copy) going to do the usual pre release hype ??? (ie: team by team player faces screen caps & team by rating screen caps as well).

Anyone know ??

Yeah, as someone who plays SIM, it's not a good sign that if I wanted to record some highlights of me driving to the basket at will with Shannon Brown that I could. If I could do it, the cheesers definitely can do it. But I'm giving this "demo" the benefit of the doubt that 1: it's on Pro, 2: it's not on Sim style, 3: it's just a demo. I'm pretty sure come Oct 5. or at least after the first patch once all the glitches are spotted that that won't be possible

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...

My monitor doesn't have a sharpness setting and even if it did, I'm not gonna make the image blurry just to mimic 2X AA that 2K Sports should've utilized in the game by now.

Pros:
- Great array of moves, especially for Kobe.
- Signature shot, seemed to be captured perfectly
- Game flow is a lot better.
- Less uncontested dives to the basket

Cons:
- Almost no physics, i.e in air collisions not involving animations don't exist, Jumping into the pass lane not effective.
- Gameplay only marginally improved over last year.
- Dribbling is not 1 to 1; still animation controlled.

I'm impressed by the improved movements of this game. The game feels a lot smoother also. I love all the new animations and the defense feels nice. I can't wait to get the full version. The only gripe I have with the demo is I'm forced to play on broadcast cam. Yuck.
