I just hoped the improved rebounding, the live ball physics and the pass/catch animations.

I'm weird but I couldn't help but notice Kobe's collarbone when he was running. The detail is just awe inspiring.

word be a useless feature, seeing how their heads are covered by helmets. In game view, you won't be able to see much of a reaction to their emotions at all, similiar to how its broadcast on tv.

Its a lost cause homie. No one cares about ratings, basketball strategy, or the ability to play defense at this point. As long as the game looks like nba basketball and moves like nba basketball everything else is secondary. We are now in the myplayer age.

I will give 2k credit for making a true next gen game. Their artist and mo cap people did a phenomenal job. But if 2k insider still butchers all the ratings it won't matter to me. Because online play will be ruined for me

Lol. Did you not watch the video at all? It's about much more than player faces man.. And I see players faces in Madden all of the time. Cutscenes? Replays? Would be far from useless if it was just faces.

Here..

With Eco-Motion, the entire NBA experience comes to life in ways never before seen in a video game, including crowd reactions, atmosphere, coaching strategies, real player voices, and most of all the emotion of the game. Player animations are dynamic, and evolve on the fly as you play. Player personalities and emotions factor into the game as well, affecting how players perform and even behave on the court. No longer will players look like robots on the court. Now you will feel the emotion of the game in a living, evolving basketball environment.

It'll affect the way players move on offense with and without the ball and most importantly how players move on defense. The fact that everything is dynamic and that players change and adapt based on their environment is astounding. Not to mention that it affects how the crowd reacts to the game. How anyone can call this fluff is beyond me.

its only fluff, cause its repetitive news. Its impressive, but its nothing that hasn't been mention for a month straight. Why when 2k does something repetitive no one complains? But when BounceTek is being showed month straight, everyone harps on it? Its the same exact thing(in terms of repetitive marketing), but only 2k looks prettier being repetitive. The screenshots are impressive, but where's the core stuff? This game is less than a weak from release? Even GTA V released key features before 9 days into the release window.

Sorry, I assumed you were just talking about the emotional aspect of the engine.

Ecomotion is so much more than just the faces....it's the player movement, the ball physics, the lighting, the animation variation....it's the whole engine....

It would be perfectly suited to football...and not wasted at all...

For you to say emotional aspect of football would be useless is laughable to me but that's a pointless debate.

Football is not really as emotional as basketball unless players get pissed off at the sidelines you don't see much

We are so spoiled as gamers.. they are putting together this great product and we are upset they don't tell us enough fast enough like the game will come out and we will know nothing about it. C'mon, more information is coming. Be PATIENT or just do the logical thing and wait for the game to come out and play it for yourself.
