The PS3 is using a much better anti-aliasing method than 2K11, that said, it does cause some slight blur, compared to the 360 version, hard to discern. The PS3 is using a softer color pallete compared to the 360, honestly I prefer the color spectrum more so on the PS3 than the 360, looks more natural and less cartoon like. They did much better on the PS3 this year than last - it also has DTS vice DD 5.1 for the 360. I preordered the 360, though I would be more than happy with either one.

repped, for those wondering which version to pick up, this describes what i did and found the same results. xbox version is sharper and brighter colors. ps3 looks to have slightly lower resolutioin, but no jaggies and the color scheme looks more like real life. both run at 60fps with no hitches. this year the deciding factor should be where your friends play. for those with only a ps3, no worries, 2k stepped up this year it seems and have delivered a great port. good job 2k from someone who mainly games on ps3.

jaggies are much much better on ps3 this year. I was still disappointed to see the boxy crowds again though. It's weird cause the crowds looks great until the game starts, then they go boxy like years past on ps3. Makes no sense.

Did they take contested jumpers out. It looks kinda weird wen its no difference in jumpers no matter the defense.

Finally got a chance to play this. I am very happy with the game! I'm already having fun more than 2K11. The collisions are great! The best in the business!

Spoiler

But...walking/bringing up the ball animations in 2K7 are still light year ahead of 2K12's...

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, no disrespect, but I believe some people on this thread wouldn't be impressed if the demo made Dirk come out of their TVs and give them basketball lessons.

I would rather working with his shooting coach than Dirk himself.

Yea i didn't see any contested jumpers either... I do like the branch crossovers and the ability to do a dribble pull up then all of sudden change it wen u see the defender timing the block. Looks rrreeeeaaalll ggggooooodddd. Can't wait til da 4th already going crazy lol. When's the next insight??? If I'm not mistaken we get 2 more right??
