NBA 2K13 - 25 Things We Know (GameInformer)

hopefully they add a trailer trait for big men who run the floor and not the lazies.

I wish 2k would of just left the controls for alley-oops at LT+B. Its just one more thing we've got to re-learn. It worked just fine before and was easy enough. I don't really like the idea of having to try and mash multiple buttons at once to do something. Hope 2k reconsiders this one or atleast allow us in the controls to change it.

It's only two buttons A+X and it's no different from pressing LT+B nothing multiple about it. I would complain if the alley-oop buttons where the X+Y buttons....now that would be awkward...

If you're one of those people that skip the demo then I would understand but once that demo drops it's going to be played a lot and I mean a LOT! Once the retail version is released you should be used to the controls by then....

Coincidentally they really should redo the demo like the one Live 10 had where they had a freestyle type practice before getting into the game. A two player option would be nice to have as well...

My only concern is the possibility of people not hitting both buttons at the exact same time and it not registering as an alley-oop and having unintended consequences. Such as throwing a stray pass that could cause a turnover or throwing up an ill-advised shot. Holding down LT then pressing B was pretty simple before.

I'll have to see how this turns out when the demo drops. With so many changes to all the controls this year its just one more thing I wish I didn't have to relearn & worry about.

Once the demo's out I'll be playing the hell out of it thats for sure. Its gonna take awhile to adjust & try to relearn everything all over again. I agree, it would be good if they offered some kind of practice mode in the demo this year.

You should play the 2K demo and then 2K12 the game again. They are worlds apart. Not everyone is a nerd that plays the demo 100 times.

And since I just read about the alley oop buttong being changed, it sucks. It's really easy to use the trigger and then press B. A+X, yuck, doesn't even feel right.

Kinect users have to get creative with the swearing so they don't get techs. Cursing in French this year maye? Lol

No bid deal, come on.

Plus I guess when you get to play 2K13 demo you don't touch 2K12 again.
