Amen brother. I don't know who that old man is...

That got me pretty excited, but the best parts were the interviews afterward. All the guys seemed really stoked about the gameplay, AI improvements, and overall feel of the game. And, ultimately, that's what is going to make the game go from good to great. I'm really excited to get my hands on the control and feel it out. If it's fun just to play, the game will have so much longevity.

I am also interested to play all the teams and check out how each player feels. From the video, I really got a sense of players moving and reacting differently from each other much like they do in real life. Harden really stood out to me cause his dribble and movements seemed very much like he plays, favoring the left and everything. But, I got a cool vibe from several other players too (Bosh, LeBron, Westbrook's dunks, etc all seemed to resemble their true selves).

Definitely pumped.

The game looks very solid and a big improvement over 2k12 in my view. In general I am pretty happy with the gameplay showed, but to nick pick a little bit, I don’t like the over the shoulders lob passes (neither the quantity nor the quality) that’s probably the only thing that makes me remember I am watching a video game and not real NBA game footage. The other thing I don’t like is the (too high) shooting percentages, but I guess that is easy to correct if we up the difficulty and tweak the sliders accordingly…

Things I will be checking in the demo (because I suspect we could find exploits there):
- Run and Gun (It seems it will be again a cheaper way to find good looks and abuse stars without the need of playing good fundamental basketball).
- Bounce Passes (Considering what I have seen so far, they seems to be too effective and difficult to counter, can they be defended properly?).
- Up and Unders (last year this was way too effective either, and the worst thing, it could be performed efficiently by anyone whether they had post proficiency or not, in this video the defender beat to the fakes most of the time, but anyway, I didn’t see yet anything clearly suggesting they are more balanced now).

Cheers! ;-)

Quote L2DK: "The level of realism in this game is just crazy" Then please tell me why the Oklahoma City Thunder still wear white socks/shoes on the road for the third straight year in this game? I thought it's about authenticity and realism? I don't wanna troll here, I'm plain serious...

Loved the amount of fouls being called. If the foul settings were on default it's gonna be a good year!

Yeah I guess that is what I mean they could have decreased the success rate when depleted or increased the effect of dunk in traffic. If it becomes an issue we will have to adjust our game
