	"One of the key changes we made this year was introducing all-new Hands-On Control. This puts the control of the player in your hands, and gets rid of the dice-roll shooting, canned animations, and loss of control you�ve experienced in past NBA Basketball video games. Like putting in time at the gym, there�s a learning curve with Hands-On Control. But once you feel the difference, you�ll know why we changed everything. To compare Hands-On Control to the old button configuration, you can switch back in your Lakers-Celtics game in the demo through Pause-> Menu -> Setting -> Control Setting. We really encourage you to put in the time in Practice Mode with the Hands-On Control and feel the difference versus our old controls."

I'm actually digging the default cam in practice. I can't say enough about how I love the controls. STILL intuitive and feels wonderful. Hate how ackward the shot alter animation looks when going from dunk to layup.

You can exit out of the tutorial by pausing it and exiting. However, I HIGHLY recommend that first time players go into the tutorial. The controls are different this year guys so take the time to learn the controls.

Wow...this game is so bad

# 245 TreyIM2 @ 09/21/10 02:23 AM

Wow, shooting takes some serious practice. Digging that aspect of perfecting your shot.

That's good to know and trust me I'm going to spend a lot of time practicing.. the community event proved to me how much of a learning curve this game has lol!

I'm not going to pass too much judgement until I've got everything most of the controls down...

Bad good or bad bad

# 249 HoosierDaddy @ 09/21/10 02:25 AM

let's try to be constructive and give feedback regarding the actual game itself, not comparing it to any other game. If you don't like it, say why.

It's sad you actually have to ask that. It just shows how bad (bad bad) our language has actually gotten.

Time to play it!

# 254 TreyIM2 @ 09/21/10 02:33 AM

So far, I love this and I haven't even jumped into a game yet. The feel and controls are just PHENOMENAL!!!

# 255 Gotmadskillzson @ 09/21/10 02:33 AM

Ok for those with the demo.......answer me some questions if you don't mind since I have a 360....

1. easy to drive to the hole ?

2. How is the blocked shots looking and do you have control over the type of block you want to do ?

3. Can everybody do the same kind of crossovers, behind the backs, etc ?

4. Can you bring the ball up court with a center or PF and not lose control of the ball ?

# 256 thesniper321 @ 09/21/10 02:36 AM

i dont know man, i m not used to have all those buttons gone, you dun need square circle triangle cross at all almost, you only need those two sticks and r1 r2 l1 l2, i think is going to take a very very very long time to get used to~~~

You can use last year's control scheme. To do that follow these steps:

Pause the game -> Go into settings -> Control Settings -> From there you will see the layout for the default control scheme. To change to last year's control scroll left or right to bring up the "alternate" controls which is last year's button scheme.

The new controls take time man, but trust me once you master it there's no going back.

# 259 TreyIM2 @ 09/21/10 02:40 AM

Uuhh, the 5 on 5 gameplay is looking not so good. Damn, wtf happened??? I was just on a high from the practice to be dropped all the way back to earth with terrible looking 5 on 5 play. It seems way too fast and stiff and u can't adjust it. Uh, boy....
