I may be in the minority but I don't think NBA 2K NEEDS real presentation like TNT or ESPN. Visual Concept's quality in the presentation department is arguably the best in sports video games. Of course it can get a lot better, but does it need a brand like TNT or ESPN to accomplish this? No, in my opinion.

Indeed. Outside of the short pre-game warmup, everything about the presentation isn't all that impressive. I've seen a few post complimenting the commentary in the video for some reason but honestly 2K is better in that department as well.

This is NBA Elite all over again. With NBA Elite you had the demo release and people from the community ripped the game apart. The casual gamer has no clue what is going on with this game, but the gaming community that wants to see what EA Sports can do has all the history.

Now you have leaked footage of the game where EA is trying to put out a fire. Sound familiar? We know how they put out the fire that was NBA Elite. It just might happen again.

I was having a great day today... and then i saw this.... and it made me vomit. This doesn't even look good if it was a game on an iPhone or iPad lol

I'm late to the party, but this is about what I expected coming out of Tiburon. Nothing short of hot garbage. I like the audio, but everything else is trash.

I'll tell you one thing: no one at EA is gonna be talking about CastleStorm at lunch tomorrow.

I actually liked it too. But the other sig shots were not very good.

Maybe he actually liked the gameplay footage.

I have no problems with Cedric. Dude is going down with the ship. He is obviously a fan of the series. I have no issues with that.

And he did us a favor by posting it seeing we've had zero footage of Live for 2 years now.
I'm trying to stay postive about everything I want EA Sports to make a solid game & build a great foundation for the future. I want them to prove that they can make a good b-ball game with this years release. EA Sports needs to move forward not backwards.

This made me sad..... Don't think that was what they were going for.
 
# 457 pcoz2000 @ 08/21/12 10:22 PM
That looks absolutely terrible! Is that next gen double dribble? Just go away.
 
# 458 Dashdagreat @ 08/21/12 10:23 PM
As much bs ya talk and complain about 2k12, for some of ya to even find ANYTHING positive about this outside of presentation is a joke!! There is ZERO to say positive about this video

Don't worry, I'll wait. Dynasty mode was even available. Are you kidding me?
I forgot to mention. The damn thing connected to the EA servers, had the downloadable content section available, team management and friggin leaderboards. Leaderboards. In a pre-alpha build!!! Again I ask. What pre-alpha build has anyone EVER seen anywhere that has all that available to choose in PRE, key word PRE-alpha. Pre-alpha is the first stage of the development cycle people.

Gameplay looks terrible but it's probably from an early build. Nice to hear the ESPN/ABC crew...... Thats the only positive for me so far.
