NBA 2K11 Demo Available Now, Impressions and Discussion Here (360,PS3)

[gbx34]

Are you able to just run around the court and until you can dunk like in previous games?
I play online and this is the reason why ive never played a 2k in the last 3 years

Seriously getting tired of these "cliques" and bashing of other games. There's no sides people, that's not what this site is about. If you can't view things objectively without saying something else sucks or blows you're better off not posting.

Anyway, continue.

Is there a way to get the demo file posted here, for me to save it in an usb and then translate it into the PS3 (ala custom/official rosters) ? ... If possible, then I will also need instructions on how to specifically doing it ... would be really appreciated.

Why ?

I havent played the demo and I was telling myself that it was ok not to play it so I wouldnt spoil the WOWness of the game ... but the truth is that I am not able to download it ...

Yes I have access to internet but due to me living in a third world country, my internet connection is extremly low (yet absurdly and unreasonable within moderm days technology and standards): 320 kbs download (when at its max speed) ...

Making an estimated guess, I forsee me having to spend over 8 straight hours to download the demo but with my country temperature being beyond 30 degrees and with my past experience (360), I dont want to run the risk of overheating the console and therefor damaging it.

My initial impression is extremely negative. After having 3 of the 4 passes I attempted to throw getting stolen when 2 of 3 were wide open (I think it was going towards the wrong player as well),Pierce just drives right into the lane and dunks on everyone like it's NBA Jam and then next time I get a stop despite the D STILL not properly rotating,Artest grabs a rebound and is immediately pushed out of bounds by Pau. I just turned the Xbox straight off.

2nd impression is that there aren't enough fouls,there needs to be some sort of walk button or something instead of them trying to sneak around like Sam Fisher when only lightly moving the stick and everything feels too fast/loose/slidey,feels like hockey,not basketball. I know 2K didn't make a hockey game this year,guess this is what they did with the ice. This time it was Kobe dunking on a bunch of people instead of Pierce. I'll wait until patch #1 and give it a rental cause I don't think this can be fixed entirely with sliders.

It's on PRO +default. If they would make only simulation, kids and casuals would never want to play their game. Was stated a few times already.

It's not worth re-stating again either. These comments are seemingly made in a vacuum and ignore all common sense.

It's just a waste of time to go through them. Read the other impressions for a better detailed explanation of what someone thinks about the demo.

Sorry will do. But posts like this pop up regularly everywhere and they brake great discussions....

Due to MS shenanigans I didn't get the demo until today so wasn't gonna look through 186 pages but I figured it was on pro anyway,doesn't mean it's alright to happen. Unless it's on rookie or in streetball mode no one should be dunking on 3 people very often but either way I don't think being on pro makes up for the other stuff.
