After watching that Kevin Love up and under I'm a little bit scared, that move was OVERPOWERED in 2k12, it was basically the go to move for a lot of people (specially cheesers) in the post. I hope it's not the same like 2k12, where even Jeff Foster could become Hakeem Olajuwon for one night. Those up and under aren't an easy thing to do in real life.

Yeah, I absolutely love 2k's commentary team and hope they never change it. All three do a great job and sound really natural together.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I hadn't seen any new shoe in the trailer, all of them where in last year's game.

I just love the music in these videos:16-bit sounds

# 89 rdmcfall @ 08/21/12 04:52 PM

Good God that looked impressive. I haven't looked forward to 2K this much in years.

TAKE MY MONEY RIGHT NOW!

Should be updated when the game ships. I think they might have a video on shoes soon.

I understand NBA players can finish with both hands inside, and I didn't really have an issue with Kobe's shot, as it was a layup attempt, but Anthony's shot seemed to come from about 10 feet out.

And again, I'd normally chalk up all sorts of scenarios as to why each player went left (for example, Kobe has been one of the few to use his left all the way out to the three point line) but I was just saying I know and very readily recall how the use of the left-hand was at times very misused in 2K12 (again, there were drifting right-to-left banking left handed 15 footers that both user and computer could and would execute). So, my primary point was just that hopefully this had been addressed and the lefty Melo was not an indicator it had been overlooked.

Just when you think I can dent the 2k armor....they turn around and show me the door....lol.

I can now sleep at night!!

Thanks Sim.....all of that work in those jersey update threads has paid off.....lol.

Unrealistic!

Where is Boozers sprayed on hair at?!??!?!!

# 95 DBMcGee3 @ 08/21/12 05:24 PM

Man, this is really shaping up to be something. I'm sure there will still be some redundant issues that pop up when we've all been playing the game for months, but I think they've already hit most of my "to do" checklist regarding gameplay improvements. Looks like I may pre-order this sumbitch after all.

this the main question i need answered too. EVERY other sports game has sliders in their career modes, from every company (even 2k)...yet NBA MP still has not added them. please 2k13, fix MP by adding some custom sliders for your loyal customers...

i don't want to hear the pr build crap when they took two years off to make the game, this was Trash!! and i wouldn't pay 20 dollars for it

I remember that move from NBA Live 2003 haha

# 100 Guard-ian @ 08/21/12 05:38 PM

It is great that now it will be possible to exploit mismatches in the perimeter, but it should be the same the other way around... I hated in 2k12 when (let's say) Pau Gasol was defended by (Let's say) Tony Parker and you could not take advantage of that properly unless you used the overpowered up and under...But in that situation a simple hook with Pau close to rim should be in most of the time, but that was not the case, hooks were not properly balanced in 2k12 in my view...

Cheers! ;-)
