Yes, I've seen it - it's not in retail from what I can tell.

Is it just me or does everybody run slow besides Lebron James I feel like I'm running with Perkins speed for everybody.

The dribbling will be more effective for certain camera views

Like that I was able to pull off a spin move from post than quick layup with bosh compared to last yr if u didn't remember the right combination you were stuck
In all it felt more organic

Player models look different more slim

Just played 4 games after downloading the demo for PS3. I know i'm going to be in the minority here, but I really don't like it at all. Both 2k11 and 2k12 gripped me straight away the last two years, sadly, this game has not done the same.

Really let down. I'm not going to go into griping about it seeing as there's a lot of you who are clearly loving it, but I think I'm going to stick with 2K12.

2k cam is in demo if u have kinect. Just say "switch camera" posted this earlier but y'all don't read from the new guy lol

quick impressions:

+really nice to be able to pull off some good moves once you get the hang of it
+fast break spacing is much improved
+defense is a lot better

-rebounding is pretty poor overall. not a lot of boxing out and it just feels stale.
-players definitely feel sluggish on default
-hop step and spin dunk are really easy to abuse.

WOW you gave up MW3 and Need for Speed? That's a bit much just to get one game although I believe that NBA 2K13 will be great. Like others have said, the folks at gamestop sure know how to rip people off.

getting used to the contextual "auto-controls". not bad once you get a feel for how it works.

the one nagging thing that still really bothering me is all of the stopping catch animations. every time i pass to a cutting teammate, he stops to catch the ball...instead of continuing his path to the hoop. this issue is really annoying me. why would a cutter with a wide open path to the hoop just stop in his tracks as he catches the ball? he should catch in stride and continue to the hoop for the layup/dunk.

Don't play them. All I play is NBA 2K. The MW3 was a Christmas gift that collected dust, and the Need For Speed was a game included with my new PS3 I bought off eBay.
