anyone knows?

Love the gameplay. The little advertisement that popped up on the bottom left was a nice touch! New collision system is really nice. Wade went in for a layup and got bumped hard by Chandler and he still made the damn shot. LOL

2K12 GONNA BE THE BEST YET!

I like how you can move the inbounder with the R-Stick after they score on you.

Game controls very very well, I have two little problems though:

- When jogging forward, when I decide I want to stop and walk backwards whilst facing the basket, there is still a weird force that delays the movement.

- How do I make stepbacks without pump faking?

Loving the game so far.

pissed off? nah.....but (and maybe I have a short memory) I dont remember being this close to release and only having ONE official gameplay vid.

add that to this bare demo and I can definitely feel why people have questions.

itll all go away Oct 4th lol

They said in the back court only. It would lead to cheese if they allowed that in the frontcourt, because no defensive player would be able to catch up unless they had a magic speed boost - which is unrealistic. When you get past the half court line, I assume that they determine the speed by who the ball handler is, and who the player chasing him down is.

I also REALLY like the addition of wrap-around fouls.

First time I did it was off a fastbreak from Chalmers to LeBron. Saw an alley-oop IMMEDIATELY. Snatched Chalmers quickly before it could happen. Fernandez just tugged him and looked like he patted him on the back, I think...very nice, least it wasn't the same *** intentional foul animation.

Second time was when they threw Bosh an outlet pass. Caught up with Dirk and I forgot the rules of basketball like an idiot. Grabbed Bosh and got a clear path foul. lol
