NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: Association

[weylum]

Man, this is insane. Seems an extraordinary amount of effort and thought was put into this year's game.

Just fixing the silhouette issue, for me, is enough for me to say that I probably won't have much of a life for the next twelve months.

All sounds great. Just one question. Can we still select more than one user for Association?????? I usually select all of the teams and me and my friends play.

Based off my playing habits, this game will last me 3 years!

I don't think i've ever been more excited for a video game release in my entire life...

Yeah that was a head scratcher but Im not paying any of that any mind untill I see how it works in person, that trade can look great or bad depending on whats actually happening in your association, not to mention last year they showed a trade involving the Blazers which looked good but we all know how that AI turned out...

Like Jukeman, I'd like a Coach's Carousel also. That along with a weekly wrap-up show made me coming back to College Hoops again and again.

Unfortunately, I think the wrap up show idea has gone by the wayside because the NBA.com feature was thought to suffice for league news and immersion.

I'm impressed by all the logic changes for the Association, and with them all coming in so short a time is stellar. I've just never had a hook big enough to keep me coming back to an NBA season to actually play a whole one out - probably some of that is due to a College BBall bias, although I've been a big NBA fan for the last few years.

Which console does NBA 2k look the best on graphic wise XBOX 360 or PS3

And then some. Their effort this year is beyond ridiculous - any expectation I have they don't just meet, they blow through and establish some new high bar. I'm sure there will be things that don't work perfectly, just no way to account for all the new variables they've thrown in this year. But they have to be respected for pushing the envelope. If even half the stuff works as advertised it's more than what other devs attempt to accomplish in a single development cycle
