- Should we do a flex schedule from jump?
- Are you fine with current settings?
- Any other thoughts?

Also, what team do you want? (Lakers for me ). If there is a dispute over teams, the guy with the worse season 1 record gets the team. Current players have dibs over any new guys.

PS: DEFENSIVE STANCE IS BACK, KIDS!!!

 

[jobber]

it's too early
Spurs = mine

 

[sportzhead]

Damn you for taking the Lakers.
I'll take the Suns then.

 

[Fifty]

I also think it's too early but if I did decide on getting this game (will get one nba game and play the heck out of it, just not sure which yet) and it had all the league features of the current gen game, of course I'd join. I might not use the Raptors though.

 

[Guileless]

I'm like Fifty, I'll be getting one of the bball games after reading impressions and reviews. But if I get 2k then I'm definitely down for a league.

 

[Dsal]

Not sure if I'll be sigining up for a league again. Being obligated to play games even when you don't feel like it kind of takes the fun out of it for me :|. I'll think about it though, and I'm definitely getting 2k6 for 360.

 

[Fifty]

Oh man good thing you weren't in season 1 of madden :lol This NBA league has been about as strict as a hedonistic beach party as far as playing your games quickly goes.

 

[Malleymal]

^^^^ hahaha basically, this season is the black sheep of the strict schedule family

 

[Dsal]

Actually, it's not so much the frequency. You're right, the current schedule is actually very flexible. It's just the fact that I'm obligated to play instead of playing for fun. Just adding the dimension of responsibility takes a little something out of it for me.

It's also kind of annoying when you schedule a time to play and the other guy doesn't show up and you're not sure how long you're supposed to wait around for them. Or if a game is due and you can't get a hold of the guy. I know it's how all leagues work and this stuff is very normal, I'm just not personally used to it. Maybe I just need to get used to it.

 

[Cloudy]

Dsal, you're only obligated to play the current week before the deadline. If you'd rather not play ahead, you don't have to

 

[Fifty]

I stumbled upon these cool comparison pictures. I've been wanting to see something like this.

There's something awful about Wade's face. My theory? It's because he's the Live cover star....they're turning him into Mr Clayface for that reason

 

[Ramirez]

Vince doesn't really look like Vince in the 360 shot either...

 

[Cloudy]

All you PG abusers better find new ways score :lol

 

[jobber]

All you PG abusers better find new ways score :lol

You can't stop Parker...you can only hope to do his girlfriend

 

[jobber]

it's not too early anymore....


Get N or get out!

 

[Fifty]

Getting nervous that no one else is interested, Jobber? *looks around*

Where'd everyone go? Guys......Guys!!

 

[Matrix]

 

[Ramirez]

lmao

 

[DMczaf]

"Sir....we found signs of life in the NBA 2K6 360 League Thread."

 

[jobber]

hmm some people are GELL-IS

If a online season doesn't happen that'll leave me more time to play a offline franchise mode!

You know you can do that on Live......OH WAIT

 

[Cloudy]

We will play even if we only have 6 guys. Maybe folks will play their games then

 

[Ramirez]

I'm so jealous Im not giving VC 100 bucks for this POS game...so so jealous...

 

[jobber]

This game a whooooooooole lot better than the Xbox version

REAL TALK

 

[Dsal]

O RLY?

What did they add/fix?

 

[jobber]

well sir

the CPU is alot smarter..also alot dumber. It stole the ball when I was trying to spin. I also scored 50 with Bruce Bowen and got a triple double with Manu with 12 points, 11 dimes, and 10 steals. CPU finds your main scorer and presses up on the more.

Stealing is easier

Shooting 3's is easier

1-3-1 is broken again


Haven't played a online game yet since last time I looked it was 4 people online :\

 

[Ramirez]

I also scored 50 with Bruce Bowen

laff out loud.

 

[Matrix]

laff out loud.

:lol

I scored 86 points one game using Kareem Rush against Fifty online :lol

 

[jobber]

laff out loud.

why are you in the thread?


I did it with Bowen so I could unlock the Xbox Live thing.

 

[Matrix]

"Shooting 3's is easier"

what? are you kidding me? :lol

Please tell me you were playing on rookie level.

 

[Ramirez]

why are you in the thread?

I thought maybe you and Konex were getting tired of talking to each other =\

And for the record,if stealing AND shooting 3's is easier,they were already easy as shit,then the game is truly a VC masterpiece.I love playing friends and they just wildly go around tapping the steal button and it works 80% of the time,good times...

 

[jobber]

I figured out why it was so easy to do shit. The default settings were on Superstar not HOF which I'm used to playing. My last game, I beat the Bulls by 50 (Manu scored 41). I also like the way the CPU doesn't take out my starters in blowouts till 2 minutes left in the game. (It's sliders for it, but I haven't messed with them yet)

 

[Matrix]

Man I really wish I could find out how this game looks on a standard 27 inch sony wega using component cables and 16:9 enhanced mode on.

I might sign up for a free trail gamefly account once i get my 360 just to see this port for my own eyes.

everyone GLOWS

 

[Matrix]

everyone GLOWS

Even Kobe shots?

 

[jobber]

I just had my first online game vs. a Kobe hack

At the end of 1 He was up 18-1...yes 18-1

I won 78-43 and no 1-3-1 was needed

 

[Bebpo]

I'd be interested in joining a league if you made one. Note that I haven't played a NBA 2k game in years and I don't really follow real life basketball, so I might be pretty bad.

 

[jobber]

so how many people DO have this and a 360?

 

[Cloudy]

Bebpo, no worries. The only dominant players are Jobber and Dsal.

I might have my 360 today. We'll see

 

[Matrix]

My bro might buy this game now that hes heard Live sucks ass,he wants his ball fix and is pissed I traded in the old xbox version

No matter what I do I cant escape VC.

 

[Truelize]

So as far as features are concerned, does this game have everything that the Xbox version does??
I might be inclined to go get this now. After playing the bare bones Madden and the absolute garbage that is NBA Live I do feel that I need a sports game for my 360.

It has everything the Xbox version does minus the Powerbar banner on the leaderboard.

 

[Fifty]

So it seems we might be forced to play this after all

NBA Live stinks so much this year, and the NBA season has miles to go before it ends so my interest in a game is still high. There's just something I"d like to know....

-Are either of you guys playing NBA 2K6 on a standard TV? I know you're big 2K fanbois, but be honest, does it look much better? I haven't figured out a way to get my HDTV in its current location hooked up to my router, so I might be relying on my older TV to play XBL games.

- Defensive stance is really back?

-I know it's basically the same game, but notice any new animations?

 

[bishoptl]

Got my 360. Got my NBA & NHL 2K6. I don't know what the interest is in regards to another league, but I'm game. GO GRIZZ

 

[Cloudy]

I am going to make a divisional schedule this time

I'm playing on a Flat Tube CRT with component cables hooked up and it looks great. The players are very detailed. With the right camera settings, it looks scary real. It's a few new animations especially layups. I saw Peja dunk and do a pull up.

As far as the defensive stance, it's not on here. The right button calls for a intentional foul and the left button is not used on defense. Left and Right triggers are the same as the Xbox version. I'm using Alternative A button settings and it's exactly the same layout as the Xbox version. Which is good for me and bad for you.

 

[Truelize]

Does it have 24/7 in there too?? I know you've stated that it has everything but I'm just checking.

I think I'll pick this up this week too. I need a sports game and both NBA Live and Madden have been pretty disappointing.

Sing me up with the Cavs.

 

[Zep]

As far as the defensive stance, it's not on here.

What NBA 2k6 game are you playing? not the 360 version.

 

[jobber]

uhhhhh yes I am. Unless it's not listed on the controller settings OR the manual OR the How To Play video, I haven't see anything about it.

and 24/7 is still in

That's the boxout button!

That was on the Xbox version...

If that's the defensive stance, then it doesn't work well.
