Finally, Some Actual NBA2K6 X-Box 360 Video

Looks great, but I wish they would improve the animation a little (seems a lot like 2k6 for Xbox). Definitely going to look great on a nice hi-def screen though..
 
The fluidity of the animation just kills Live IMO. Live looks to have better arenas but we'd need a better vid to be sure.
 
:lol At 9 seconds look how Posey shows off his double jointedness. Anyway, I currently play with the Heat at the same angle, and with this quality video it looks like the same exact game until they show the close ups. Animations from what I saw there are the same. Of course everything will look nicer in 720p. People always wonder why they never show regular gameplay angles for sports games, and it's because from the normal angle you can't make out the level of detail as much.
 
Why can't developers in any sport (baseball, basketball, or football) get the interaction between a player's hands and the ball correct??? Even with the power of the X360 and the flapping uniforms, the players still have mittens for hands that hold the ball with some magical force instead of their fingers.
 
Alright saw the video; the graphics of the actual gameplay (zoomed out camera) look little different from current gen to be perfectly honest, then the camera zooms in for a close up replay and talk about fucking life-like, jesus. The animation is passable, not the best, but good enough I guess.

Oh and a cookie for those that spotted the utterly blatant travelling violation in the clip.
 
About what I expected; NBA 2K6 Xbox/PS2 with a huge visual upgrade. Except animation-wise, everything looks the same which isn't too bad a thing, but I feel the dribbling animations lack flair. That replay footage sure is nice, though.
