Just have to learn the game first, then you'll unlock them..

Someone mentioned the lighting at Staples Center a few posts back, so here's a screen grab:

And the real thing, for comparison:

I dont know if its because I dont know controls or if its one of the games many flaws, but does anyone else notice the lack of explosion taking it to the hoop? I'm not talking about dunks, I mean like the first step and the momentum when picking up a head of steam. Its one of biggest things i hate about the game compared to 2k where it is very enjoyable breaking a man down off the dribble and driving hard and fast to the cup.

If EA scraps basketball maybe SCEA can get back in the basketball scene (even though NBA 09 the inside was horrible) and put their MLB The Show team on it lol But seriously they do an awesome job with The Show, would love to see what that team could do with a basketball title.

Truthfully I'd rather SCEA keep on the show instead of breaking the team up to do both NBA and MLB games.

Ea just needs to get it's **** together though ts more tiburon as a studio than EA itself.

Like Wang said when he left the EA team after Live 10, they're going in the wrong direction. He was right

I just don't see what is wrong with the graphics in this game?

I forced myself to sit and play a whole 12min quarter game using the Bulls against the Nuggets, and I will say this -The more you play it, the more can see what they were trying to accomplish and it's not a bad thing if you like the Live series.

Sadly though there isn't one area in the gameplay department that you can pinpoint and say "This part is 100% solid, and they just need to fix XYZ"

There are aspects that I really enjoy about the game, but it truly feels like they are 2 solid years away from having a good hoops title. I'm glad I got it, but I couldn't imagine finding enough enjoyment to play a full 82 game season - it literally will be just a rarely used alternative to NBA2k, and I am sure that is not what they were hoping for -
