The only disappointing aspect is the fact that none of the All-Star Weekend special modes, Dunk Contest included, are available online this year.

Damn :(

The All-Star game and the regular game now offer two distinct play styles. In the All-Star game, the pace is faster, the defense lets you in the lane easier, and there are even special moves like the self alley-oop off the backboard that you can catch and throw down in the name of T-Mac by clicking down on the right analog stick. The regular game features much more of a realistic feel than years past, without losing the fun of Freestyle. Tip-ins are a fantastic touch, and not overdone and the pro-hop has been kept under control by improved defensive positioning and better player collision animations, so now if you try to just hop through your defender, you'll instead collide and lose the ball. The new 10-man mo-cap animations include players pushing off ala Rip Hamilton and Reggie Miller before sprinting to their position and calling for the ball.

Oh crap, gotta deal with the damn Reggie Miller flop push :(
