Noob? What did you do, you are complaining about something that you haven't played. Come on man at least wait until the game comes out. I swear some of you guys do this just to get attention.

I shudder to think what they expect next gen to do, especially when there isn't a next gen game that's been announced that's been truly mind-blowing. I predict lots of disappointment. And anger. But they won't blame themselves for setting their expectations too high. Funny some people begged for video just so they could proclaim it's the reason they won't be buying the title.

Oh god I can see the complaints now...

"I thought they were showing us next gen! These graphics look like current gen!"

What video are you watching ? Lol

Just saw this now. Some thoughts:

-Shots seemed fine to me. There was an appropriate amount of missed open jumpers and the ones that went in didn't have good D in their face(Kobe notwithstanding, but he is Kobe). I was okay with the shots except for Iman Shumpert: his release is almost Ray Allen-fast and he was more accurate than he is in real life. That may be because Ronnie found the sweet spot in his shot release, but still a bit too deadly for my liking.

-Collisions in the paint seemed very appropriate and a lot better than last year. Dunks hopefully don't even initialize when there is good D bodying up near them.

-The self alley oops need to be a different button input than the regular oops. There were really annoying last year and their success rate was way too high. The Raymond Feltons of the world, even if it is a layup, should blow it more often than not. When these occur its less 'woah, that was awesome' and usually more 'really?' These happen maybe 5 times max in one NBA year.

-The graphics were fine. For the last several years, they have only really been upgraded with animations. This is the last cycle of this gen so there isn't going to be a 'wow' jump. There are a lot of new, really subtle animations that look great. Their speed seems appropriate, which has been a problem in recent years. There weren't many instances in the video were the animation felt slo-mo, which pleased me.

-This year seems more about refinement then wholesale changes. Nothing is going to immediately blow your mind in these videos, but for those who really know these games there are a lot of nice changes: spacing, pass speed, and collisions come to mind. And very few people have actually felt the new controls, which does seem like a major change. There is only so much one can glean from these videos without actually playing: when people saw the 2k12 videos it looked like the best 2k ever. Making major judgments about this game from a video is like judging a movie from the trailer.

-That being said, can we break out of the 'complaining to ref' animations? That could get really annoying in certain situations if we can't. Imagine getting the ball stolen and your guy complains instead of getting back to the fast breaker.
