I like it and it looks really good, still too many things generic....Kobe and Nick Young faces are terrible and very inaccurate. D. Rose face isn't good.

Lighting and animations are cool, except the contact with players going the bench, high fives and hands don't even bend when they touch, no finger extension..

Other than that, faces look crazy nice on all the other players. Rookies have details and loving that...And still too much Lebron....we get it he's the cover man, but from beginning to end of trailer...too much...

Launch Title for me, been paid off since August..

I think the reason why because they dedicated so much to that. I mean just look at the jerseys and the faces kinda explains it all. Will be really intresting how they improve after NBA 2K14 next gen too ... Usually the 1st years is a learning experience in some ways in building up to the next year. Either way the game looks amazing and I'm so eager to get my hands on that copy!

Damn gotta say this is the best looking sports game I've seen! I'm not even a basketball fan and I might have to get this one.

# 705 DamnYanks2 @ 10/18/13 02:07 AM

Kobe looks like Charles Barkley.

Rose looks fine, but I do agree Swaggy P and Kobe can be improved. Kobe's flesh tones are really harsh around the eyes and while it sort of looks like him, it looks like he hasn't slept for weeks and the German experimental treatment is starting to turn him into a raging zombie. If they could even out his skin tones in that area a bit more, he would be on point.

This is all in comparison with all the other faces that look fantastic and don't have his problem.

Now the reflections off his head-- he's got the nicest, most realistic ones for some reason.

The more I look at the trailer the more impress I get...they even got Harden's jacked up teeth.

He IS one of the only bald players in this trailer. Hence the reflection.

This is how I felt like after watching this video:

Yeah i kinda thought the dunk anthony davis pulled off in the trailer was kinda over the top. He's not that great of a dunker he's just huge lol. And kobe can still thrown down some nice dunks sometimes but as a kobe fan i feel like they've exaggerated his dunks for a while now, he's not #8 anymore.

A few of the OKC bench guys are bald or baldish. Fisher's head didn't look as good as Kobe. Kobe's cranium looks lovingly normal mapped.

Its not rocket science....Competition brings out the best in companies...cellphones, cars, tvs, you name it. EA can say what they want but they basically ported the old engine over because its sells alot and thats all they care about.

Do you think it helped Live?

Huck and chuck 3's and spam on the steal button. They need to discuss AI and how this game will play more realistically. I have a feeling this game will look a bit different but play the same as the current gen game...Hope I'm wrong but being so tight lipped on gameplay enhancements is not a good sign.

Dude Didn't you compare Madden's graphical leap with this game and say they were both minimal? Now that's laughable. After reading that I can't take what you have to say seriously.

A waste?!

The current game has issues but is a pretty good game. It can also be adjusted through sliders to address many issues.

A pretty good game, the best basketball game made so far, with incredible visuals.

A waste?!

I really don't get the guys that don't think graphical improvements matter at all. If the base game stays the same but the visuals take a huge leap, the experience is still significantly improved.

Now if someone actually can't even stand to play 2K, I guess they can go play Madden next?-cur?-i'm-not-sure-gen.

The thing is, even if these little details aren't perfect, we shouldn't forget that this is 2k's FIRST crack at the next gen consoles!

If this is the starting point for the next generation of 2k basketball, I can't even imagine what the game will look like at the end of next gen.

2k's track record shows me that they improve the with every release.

And from where I'm sitting, the future looks bright....

Not gonna lie...this trailer actually excited me enough to go ahead & preorder my Xbox today.

# 718 J_Posse @ 10/18/13 03:45 AM

The haters are too funny. If this game looked even remotely like current gen, like some other next-gen sports titles, people would be quick to bash and call the developers "lazy." Yet, here we are with possibly the best looking next-gen sports title and people are screaming graphics don't matter. Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay? Well, doesn't current-gen provide improved gameplay and minimal (at best) graphical improvement?

Da hell you talking about? Control? Did you feel control in that video? You have AMAZING superpowers to be able to judge controls through a video.

Agree about Kobe. Davis? Not so much. Kids got a lot of talent dude.
