Meanwhile at EA...

Is this the result of Copy/Pasting PS
2
3 code? It's obvious EA's Live team just got a PS4 devkit 2 days ago, lol.

It's gonna be funny when it sells 50x less copies than 2k's. Silly EA.
 
It's 2k. I have all the faith in the world that it will play great. I was just selfishly hoping to see it being played.

Also, EA owns NBA Jam. Just iterate on that. Live is Dead.

2k devs can't really showcase gameplay well. They suck at their own game and don't have the stick skills to execute their own deep mechanics.

Nope, not gameplay as far as I am concerned. A flashy trailer with scenes that claim to be gameplay, sure, but not actual gameplay.

Call me when they decide to show a Heat vs Spurs match with these graphics.

It is captured footage directly from a PS4 using different camera angles. The GamerSyde footage has that written in it.

Make no mistake, NBA 2k games do not have CGI movies or photoshot modes like racing games. You cannot make a NBA 2k game look any better or worse, the only thing there is, is the gameplay.

These are cutscenes you see during gameplay, the players look the same as they do during "gameplay" as you call it, there is no loading between them or anything of the like. These happen during end of a quarter or middle during gameplay.

You are welcome to be skeptical but anyone who has played these games knows these things. They used different camera angles because it looks cooler/more cinematic. Of course you arent going to play the game this way as it would be unplayable, you need to see most of the court when you play.

Looks great. Next gen version is why I skipped 2K at launch this year for the first time since 2K10. Looks like it could be worth the wait.
 
Thanks 2K for using the original version of "In the Air Tonight" instead of that horrible rock cover.

EA just got curb stomped by 2K, AGAIN.
 
I don't usually play NBA titles but I played the shit outta the demo that came out when PS3 released. I thought that looked mind blowing.

2K however is making me so curious about this! This looks fantastic! EA dun goofed! I may try out the demo if any.
 
Yeah, looks really nice in the usual highlights reel sort of way, but I wanna see long overdue improvements to in-game animation and collision. Everything nice in these sorts of videos kinda breaks down in motion when you're actually playing them.

If instant replay angles are not gameplay to you, then I don't know what to say.

Instant replay with custom angles has been a part of sports games for more than a generation.

Is there somewhere i could go to learn about Basketball? I'd love to get this game but i know nothing about the sport in terms of tactics which i presume play a major role here. Every time i pick up a BB game i just try to get the ball to the opposite side as soon as possible and try to do a slam dunk.

This game is to pretty to miss, and it's supposed to be a good representation of the sport too right?

LOL. No sports dev will ever create a trailer with the standard pulled back camera of normal gameplay. It's not impressive from that view. You hook people by showing the Sportscenter-quality highlight angles.

That is a shot from NBA 2k13 from the trailer. The player (Rose) looks exactly like that in "gameplay" but the angle they used for the trailer is obviously more up close and personal.

I guess i should take it as people being so blown away that they cannot believe the game will look like that and its some CGI film or something. But yes its happening, you can download the demo soon for your PS4/Xbone

All these 2k rookies are gonna be so fucked when they get their hands on the control scheme

Truth. The original on dreamcast wasn't super difficult, but picking up the game later, it was quite difficult to get a grasp on it. It's definitely not for the NBA Jam fan.
