Have you tried covering Lebron? I swear Butler has two lead feet as he has no lateral speed movement.

Beluba mentioned it another thread, signature gathers are gone. You can chain things together similar to them though.

This 4 minutes isn't enough for me, I'm trying to get the post moves down but I keep getting the stepback jumper.

I can't express how much better and realistic defense is. If you're in a bad spot or your guy is open you are going to get burned, there's no close outs or super magnetic jumps anymore. At best your guy will run out with his hand up and you'll still too far away to make a play.

The demo was fun, but way too short. If only a quarter, how about a 12-minute regulation quarter?

Also, not being able to run plays was a disappointment. I'm the type of player to run a play during every possession.

Will we have to wait until the next generation of consoles to get white people hair to not look like part of a plastic Halloween costume helmet?

Holy DIIIIRK. It feels so BOSS playing with him, actually feels like the Dirk I see on TV torching defenses.

Fourth game!

Immediately went to my star player. Moved around a little with Dirk to throw Bosh off, he quickly jumped back to guard me. Went into post moves. Shimmied to the left, shot right, Dirk caught the foul and FINISHED! Shot his free throw slightly early, I also like the percentage instead of just a regular feedback. It was 87%.

Finally tested eurosteps in this game. Alright, so Bosh sized me up AGAIN and instead of running in immediately, he did a little spin around over me and tried scooping it up well around close range (damn near midrange) and missed.

Tossed to Butler who DASHED down the court. One on two. Zipped past Chalmers, but LeBron was there standing with his hands up, looked like a charge attempt. But he was still peddling backwards. Held the stick up and Butler stepped directly into LeBron for the contact. Heard a "HEY!!!" and Butler swerved around and finished the layup.

Guarding this CPU is just as interesting as 2K11 was, but in 2K12, it just looks so much better. With the CPU in 2K11, he could just do a bunch of crap and get away with it and it goes in. 2K12 CPU's look more smarter to catch you. In the middle of me (Dirk) and Jason Kidd, Wade runs into the post, throws his head up to insinuate a pumpfake (which I jump for like a blithering idiot) and he tosses it in.

ALMOST lost to the CPU this time. Pissed me off right at the end cuz I actually had a postup with Dirk on Bosh (which Bosh was fighting me HEAVILY on) and Fernandez DIPPED to the hoop with nobody on him. Smashed my pass button millions of times, passed at the last second. What made me happy was Fernandez actually just threw it in quickly to avoid defenders. Almost like a tip-in. But he missed.

Chalmers PUSHED the ball down the court and threw in a 3.

I'm down 2.

Throw it to Kidd.

Timed my shot and it actually did another type of 3 where the shooter does a nice step-in before they toss the 3. Wet it with Kidd, but the crowd was kind of dead after. Ha!
