Hopefully they will use the 2k camera. Doubt it though. I can't do anything with that side view. It just messes up your perception of the floor.

Is anything going to be disabled in the demo? I remember that in previous year's demos the dual player control and playcalling didn't work.

I just head them in the commentary talking about when you force up some bad shots in My Career the coach will yank you and sit you the rest of the game. Thats pretty funny, and a nice realistic touch.

i hope it understands the difference between stupid shots and forced shots like teammates holding the ball until 2 or 1 seconds left on the shot clock then they pass to you.

Yeah, I hope so. I hope the teammate AI doesn't automatically chuck it to you at the end of the shot clock(unless it makes sense, of course).

lol its already bad enough when they don't pass when you actually want it to make something happen and if they do it shouldn't count as a personal turnover just the team turnover

Does anyone happen to have a 24 hour (Or whatever amount of time) Xbox live Gold trial hanging around? Maybe in a game case or something? :P

If so, mind if I grab it off you? Want to be able to download the Demo this week.

If anyone stumbled across one and is willing to spare, just PM it to me.

Many many thanks

Same here. Any word?

Whatever 2k does with the demo, it puts them in a dilemma. I really feel for the dev team on this one.

1st: all the addicted masses will be rioting in the streets for things they are craving... from presentation to hard core mechanical systems for a week, we will see a continuous uproar for the dev team's heads...

2nd: online fanatics won't be happy that the demo experience isn't exactly like way they like it .. after all we all agree that our own preferences are the majority's...

3rd: offline junkies will be upset that they won't be able to access their favorite modes and see if their pet peeve has been addressed ...

If the demo was released 2 weeks before street date, who knows what havoc would have happened.

This is the perfect time to go into "screen stance" so the cpu is forced to deal with it itself.

I don't know if this has been already brought up here but I'll just tell it anyway.

I tweeted Jerson Sapida if we can play 2 players with the demo and this is his response.

	Yes, there will be a choose sides option, with 2P.

I know this might be a give-away fact since we already know that we can play online but with 2K, it's always safe to say, "who knows".
