NBA 2K12 Hands-On Preview (Digital Trends)

Another hands-on preview:
http://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/nba ... -greatest/

This one mostly focuses on NBA's Greatest but it does cover a few general improvements and contemporary additions, including basket reviews.

There are other new features in the game, such as having the ability to interact with fans, and shot reviews. At one point during one of the games, my opponent went for a three-pointer as the clock zeroed out. He nailed the basket, but it was so close to the wire that the shot went up for review. It was ultimately ruled against — the shot was close, but we all saw on the replay that the ball left his fingers after the clock ran out — and I won because of it. It’s a nice added touch for a simulation that already receives high marks from fans and critics.


That's pretty cool. We've seen that before in games but sounds like it's a bit more in-depth than a generic cutscene on a shot at the end of the quarter.

Cool, it seems like they're really trying to get more detailed this year. Hopefully they improve on the AI a lot too and I'll be happy.
