NBA 2K12 Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

You WILL lose the ball if you try to drive into crowds recklessly now. I can make even LeBron lose the ball by drawing some contact. This was in 2K11, but it felt too canned and unnatural. It's a lot more fleshed out now.

Well, just downloaded it for PS3 and played two quarters so far. I've never liked the feel of player control in this game since 2K6, and I'm still not digging it to this day, but it seems to be getting better.

One thing for sure though, the difference in graphics between 360 and PS3 just got much, much smaller than it had in the past. The graphics are very cleaned up compared to how they used to be. Any PS3 gamer should be super impressed with the graphics this year! I hope they're doing the same for their MLB game.

One thing I have to say though, 2K has got to work on their demos. This is a game that thrives on absolutely **** commentary, and they can't showcase it in their demos at all. This also includes replays (automatic or manual), and any sort of advanced control screens, switching teams, or fine tuning sliders. These things would be great assets for a demo if you want to convert somebody (or attract them at all).

PS3 version has graphically sold me...360 a tad better, but i can deal. My selling point is was PS3 online above 30fps last yr?

Hop step layup- While dribbling towards the basket, move he RS to the left/right of the basket + LT

If you just want the hopstep by itself then you have to let go or tap that combo of buttons briefly. If you want to play out to a layup you have to hold all the way. Much harder than last year and thats a good thing.

It's incredible just how much the movement in this game reminds me of 2K8, and that's a good thing.

I can't put the demo down lol I tried playing Heat v Mavs on 2K11 and it didn't feel right. 2K did good! I just wish we were able to switch teams...oh well. Oct. 4 here I come.
