OS has got a new exclusive video, check it out senors

Not much to comment on but....
Cheerleaders
Okafor getting hurt doing the Rondo layup was great
Blocks are still a bit awkward IMO but I like them
and I hate the transition into the post-up situation, they need to let us post up with either hand instead of spinning the player around so he can dribble with his right.

[Patr1ck]

Looks like they were showing off the presentation, not doing too much so the long conversation at the beginning could be completed. Don't know why they released this with the demo due tomorrow.

[Houndy]

Agreed, the game still looks sharp. Presentation is good

[Andrew]

Love the detail in the commentary but as we noted before, those long conversations could get quite old after you've played the game for a bit. Still looking good though, interesting to see Okafor go down with an injury at the end there when he came down on Horford's foot.

[JaoSming]

oh, and those long ass substitution announcements kinda peeve me....the sound good if 1 or 2 players sub in, but imagine if both teams get 10 new people on the floor.....gawd

[Andrew]

Yeah, that's a situation where it would be better if the commentary simply referred to a whole new lineup on the floor or both teams clearing their bench in garbage time rather than name all the players individually.

Two guys that suck and the game still looks good. He did not shoot one but two jumpers with Emeka Okafor. Last yr it wasnt as obvious which game was better but this year its right there in your face. Elite 11 is going to have warm the bench this year. I rest my case. I will try the demo but doubt thatll make a difference.

[Angelo]

The cheerleaders are Hot thanks for posting the vid Jao

You rest your case by stating a preference/opinion?

[DVocShoeBox]

Surprisingly nobody noticed, but they are wearing home jerseys on the road & road alternate jerseys at home, (which hasnt been in 2k for a while especially since hitting PC), I just remember people asking was it possible last year, so I just had to point that out!!

[Andrew]

That was pointed out in one of the other videos that's been posted, but certainly worth noting again for anyone who missed it. Not a major detail in the grand scheme of things but it does happen when teams wear alternates and retros for home games, so it's nice to have that detail.

exactly. U know ive always stood by the nba live series no matter what. Older ones too. Even thru the bad times. But this year Idk what direction theyre headed anymore. I just want them to do something and stick with it. Im so confused now.

[Houndy]

I loved Live.... But now it seems bad.

Okefors injury made me laugh

[StompTheCourt]

the thing i love is the new in shot pass, before it was all weird but they improved it, to me its what a player would look like
when transitioning from a shot into a pass, def agree about the post moves i think they should have paid a lot of attention to that this year
because one MJ was known for it but also a lot of the players they are including from the 90's were post players ( Malone, Ewing ect...)

[Axel The Great]

Looks good. I might switch to 2K this year, but I'll still try out both demos. Love the presentation, and the gameplay looks solid.

Cheerleaders are to for.

[[Q]]

yeah the cheerleaders and the Drake song were a nice touch to the presentation. seems like they've gone the Live route of having long speeches that get repetitive like Marv & Steve would do. I didn't mind those in live 10 much. i agree with the whole substitution bit too. I liked the injury, seemed like he came down on someone's foot... in-game injuries seem like a thing of the past now for me.

i had 2k9 and Clark Kellogg doesn't really do it for me. he seems pretty robotic in-game and in real life on CBS and Pacer telecasts and i could do without him. they seemed to have really improved Harlan's commentary though. someone please tell me they put in his "RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES!!!!" line in 2k10

[shadowgrin]

someone please tell me they put in his "RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES!!!!" line in 2k10

It was removed in 2K10 due to esrb ratings and I doubt it will be in 2K11.

New gameplay vid with a look at the halftime show.

phpBB [video]

[Andrew]

Looking good. Noticed we can delay picking up the ball off the inbounds pass, nice. Halftime show looks great and according to the description on YouTube, that's not even the full version of the show:

This is NOT the full halftime show, as it's not an NBA Today game. This will be talked about in a couple of weeks.

[Angelo]

Damn thats good i really liked that halftime show presentation of 2k

[Houndy]

The halftime show is excellent IMO.

[StompTheCourt]

i liked that halftime show as well instead of talking about the player of the winning team only they pointed out both which they really do in a halftime show so excellent
i am happy with it however i would have liked to see two sports analysis hashing it out at a desk but its definitely a huge step compared to the last two years

[Dual]

this game is going to be legendary... can't wait!!!!

[LittleMan]

the halftime show sucked was hoping for more was too short ,and was just plain corny real halftime shows break down the the major plays of the first half it's for the most part about the teams unless somebody just hott....was hoping for something more like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS_S1FU3oZo

[JaoSming]

short and sweet is the way to go though. I like NFL 2k5's halftime show but football is a different animal. The slick transitions into player specific intros then some highlights with commentary is all I really want. I almost think adding a 2nd segment for NBA Today results goes a bit too long but again, that is personal preference.
