I agree, let's see this in motion.

Although, I do think the statement regarding Live's ability to close the gap this year holds some weight.

From a gameplay/physics perspective, 2k is bordering on pathetic. I picked it up again last night at a friends house, and strictly regarding player movement/physics/gameplay, it might be one of the worst basketball games I've ever gotten my hands on. Not saying Live was any better but I really don't feel I'm exaggerating either. If Live can bring something that exudes fluidity in player movement, expands upon the dribble movements, improves off ball movement/animations and build upon presentation, I think alot of people will start looking their way.

But as we've seen, those are all big IFs at this point, so it will be interesting to see what we see in the coming weeks. Could be another year of no basketball for me.

Not trying to troll at all, but which part of the body are you looking at? I think looking at the faces, they did a great job of minimizing that "sheen" that last years players had. There is some still on the body, but I think that is probably supposed to be sweat.

Faces look good...Harden probably the least of them. Would like to see full body shots.

So we've moved on to let's see it in motion... I don't get that especially with a sports game. 2k animates beautifully and plays like crap. Actually you don't even play that game you just watch animations.. Live looks like crap and needed refinement which 15 should bring.

I'm amazed how important graphics are to everyone for a sports game. 2k was crowned king from a trailer last year and people are considering switching to live due to player faces.

LOL @ Live just needing 'refinement'...that sounds just as ridiculous.

The complete absence of vital game play animations isn't the solution to having too many...

It isn't just a graphical thing...

[WTF]

Overall, I'm extremely pleased with what has been shown. I'm looking forward to seeing how the jersey scans translate into the overall picture. Lighting looks to be really well done. Skin textures, I'm very happy with. I've seen a couple mention skin textures, but all in all, I think they look phenomenal.

I love what I see out of Paul George. It doesn't have that cartoonish deformation of the face just to show expression, it's more of a lifelike contortion.

I'm looking forward to seeing it in action, and hearing more about the defensive counters that they've added, maybe camera angles, and animations as a whole, and I'm good.
