NBA 2K13 Demo Available Now For 360 and PS3, Post Impressions Here

That D-Wade move where he did all that crazy and 1 **** from the 3 point line looks hella dope!

D-Wade is looking like he's going to be mad fun to play with in 2K13.

On a different note about the video, VDusen has me paying attention to the way guys grab the rim when they dunk, the more I watch it, the more amazing the animation looks.

PS3 guy here, didn't play the demo yet. Wanted to highlight this in the bold - the demo is on Default, no? The contact sliders are at 50, opposed to the 88 Driving and 100 Inside frequency on the Simulation settings. That can be a reason why the contact isn't that good.

I'm sure this has been said a ton throughout this thread, but I really like that you can beat your defender off the dribble, with an explosive player such as Russell Westbrook; one dribble move and he was past Mario Chalmers. I also like the fact that passing has been addressed. Now you can zip the ball around the perimeter and hit the open man in a timely manner. Fastbreaks also seem great so far. As soon as Westbrook received the outlet pass he was off to the races. I didn't have a slower player run past me and clog the paint. Just as it is in real basketball, speed, quickness and player positioning definitely seem to play a large role this year. I'm excited to see what I can do with John Wall! Great job 2k.

definitely equipping the Finisher skill

Lebron and Wade are unstoppable, they absorb any contact...just adjust ur shot in the air and it goes in

I thought you could play online vs a friend? Is it just offline?

My thoughts on 2k13 demo.

Pros

Improved graphics, animations, better passing, authentic player signature skills, and love the presentation before game of downtown Miami. The defense is AMAZING as are some of the blocks I made with Lebron...very hard if you time them correctly.

Cons:

No sweat coming off players, no player introductions prior to game like in earier 2k versions, crowd animations and reactions are still whackadoo, ghetto looking menus.

Overall a major overhaul...kudos 2K!

So anybody know why certain mascots are missing from the game?
