Good to see stuff this early. I'm expecting it to look a lot like 2k12 at this early stage, but it'll still be interesting to me to see how the game is at this point.

# 23 Eman5805 @ 05/31/12 10:03 PM

This oughta be interesting. I can already imagine the complainers now.

I think it's going to be one of these videos, you need to watch 5 times in a row and look EXTREMELY closely to spot gameplay differences. I don't expect it to show much. But it's good to see...anything.

The beauty of competition! I have a feeling 2K will impress.

I think 2K's been impressing for years. It's just takes a couple of weeks to spot the problems. But no game is perfect, and yet when something is fresh and you're expecting it so much, you get excited and appreciate most of what you see. It's human.

I am not expecting to see a big graphical update but a slight tweak visually. For the most part the game looks very close to real life. I doubt if we will be able to determine anymore than this

I expect to see more signature animations for Durant pointing to the sky after a three, Westbrook holster and more animated.
A skinny lanky Durant long wingspan model
Better Harden model thick full beard and Mohawk
Smoother running animations less sliding.

If we can determine any more than this I will be impressed.

Yep, if history is any indication, I think you're on the right track. Usually these videos appear to look like the previous year's iteration with small changes. They tend not to represent what the game will ultimately look and play like.

It'll be nice to see the All-Star footage though.

smh THE HYPE MACHINE BEGINS. I already know I'm going to be replaying the gameplay part, I just have a feeling that the gameplay is going to be short and the dunk contest will be longer.

# 30 kolanji @ 05/31/12 11:05 PM

very very impressed with this .....cant say how excited i am right now with such a proactive VC team...their confidence is contagious and refreshing

kinda like the captain on a plane's PA system just at the right moment to calm the passengers during a scary and uneasy turbulence.

they caught me well off guard giving us such a really early look into what i am sure is to them , their best work ever....they are this willing to show us a glimpse this early and i am willing to be shown a glimpse so come what may i say.....bring it VC

# 31 Sinner @ 05/31/12 11:22 PM

definately looking forward to a video and more info on NBA2k13...that time of year again...let the roller coaster ride of emotions on this board start. At least its good for a few laughs

# 32 Angel_G @ 05/31/12 11:28 PM

What i'd like to see is a couple of minor appearance changes like Russell Westbrook, so he doesn't look like a Ninja turtle. Also a skinnier Durant with short hair and Harden with a thick beard and mohawk. I hope they add "calf sleeves" with visible socks like the ones Thabo Sefolosha, Melo, Lin, etc use. Also shorter hair for Ginobli, new player models/cyberfaces for Boris Diaw, Matt Bonner, Nick Collision, Nazr Mohammed, Lazar Hayward and Gary Neal.

They are actually releasing Gameplay videos earlier than usual. I doubt they have anything new to show this year besides All-Star Weekend and new Presentation. Seems like I may have to take a serious look at NBA Live 13 this year. If the servers are legit, introduce EASBL like they were going to in NBA ELITE 11, and the gameplay is way above average then I'm coming back HOME.

SO you came here to tell us how great Live is going to be because of.....? 2K never killed Live they always left the door open, EA just choice not to take advantage.

# 34 jersez @ 06/01/12 12:03 AM

I'm not going to judge the graphics because the graphics they are going to show, are usually not the graphics that make it to the final game. They still are developing the game so I'm going to watch this with a realistic view. Things I'm going to look for are fast crisp passes, if bumping still exist, physics, dribbling system, cpu teammates AI,up and under abuse, floor spacing and last but certainly not least DOUBLE TEAMS baby

that's how my day will probably go. The game comes out on the second so I'm hoping this summer goes by kinda fast lol. Good start of summer getting the south beaches lebrons and 2k13 video.

I hate when someone has to bring up companies and cheer for their favorites sides. I hope Live is great and I hope 2k13 is great. We need competition and a reason they are showing early gameplay may be because of the early release date, and 2k needs the marketing since their other games aren't doing so well. Lets not make this a EA vs 2k fanboy thread, we lose either way. Its proven that Ea and 2k make their products better with competition than without it. Lets act like adults please.

Does anyone know if NBA Live is still utilizing physics?

The reason was 2K Sports Basketball. When competition comes...You have to be ready. NBA Live hasn't been ready in a while. Lets be real here. I've played NBA 2k Series and NBA Live Series faithfully. I want the best Basketball game to come on top. It just happens that what I want may come true with Live than 2k with Online, EASBL and Above Average Gameplay.

My point is you have not seen anything to give you that impression, no one is saying 2k will be better than live this year and the same can be said about Live so why even bring it up.

# 38 wallofhate @ 06/01/12 01:20 AM

This is great news im super excited about this announcement. First madden reveal and now this from 2k! I just hope seeing 2k13 wont make me wanna put 2k12 down lol
