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

[Phreezy P]

Check out everyones signature gathers. Most of them are the same but look at Dirk! Perfect! 2k really did it. I cant stop playing a 4 minute demo. This is insane.

When Joel Anthony has the ball...Joel Anthony does NOT have the ball! That orange is up for grabs.

He ripped down an offensive rebound in traffic, I quickly poked it loose with Chandler, Dirk made a through the legs save on the baseline (out of bounds saves are MUCH improved) to start a fast break that finished in a Fernandez oop (which was finally a new alley oop animation). Amazing sequence.

I wish there were more new dunk and alley animations, considering how often you see these it's one area that's important to keep fresh.

I've seen some new reverse layups that were pretty incredible. Rudy and Caron make a solid two way wing duo.

For me, this demo is 5 minute high load it again CRACK.

I'm lovin' it.

I must say I'm impressed. I subbed Jason Terry into the game and I drooled as DWade wasted NO TIME putting him in the post. Terry's dribble set is pretty good. But I like that Wade knew he had a mismatch in the post instead of trying to beat him off the dribble.

Basic Basketball...you have a mismatch...USE IT. I love that the CPU recognizes this.

Man u ain't neva lied.

I was sooo disappointed last year and I did not expect them to improve the graphics for PS3 this much.

I mean, that 3-demensional feel the 360 version has had for years is now on the PS3. Don't know what the 360 looks like this yeat but I'm sure it must be amazing.

getting the hang of post moves and how to d up. Getting steals now. Y pretty much does everything in the post. Tap it to face up. Tap it to back down. right stick left and right to drop step with a dribble or fake in the post. y to spin out. LT to do into triple threat.

Game is really smooth. Plays like the real nba. Steals you really have to anticipate and be aggressive and they come. It's really nice.

You really have to play the game. I'm seeing a lot of variety. Sometimes you will get that step sometimes you won't. Sometimes kidd will make a perfect feed into the post over a defender. Sometimes he won't. Sometimes you'll get that lane.

Seems to me like 2k really did it this year and with classic teams this should be the best yet.

I've now won 3 in a row on the hardest difficulty.

you can't just defend as the pg all the time. You have to challenge shots and defend. I'm on a good streak here. Really getting the hang of it.
