Support NeoGAF

[bishoptl]

a buddy of mine from EA dropped off a copy to tide me over until 2005 comes out, since I sold my NBA 2K4 some time ago. Well I'll be damned if this isn't a spiffy little b-ball title all by itself. Sure, it's not perfect - I can't believe they haven't fixed the skating player animation since Live 96 - but it's improved in several areas since the 2003.

I especially appreciate the ability to choose between a regular shot or a dunk. And the pro-hop is a lifesaver. If I could just adjust the gameplay sliders to feel a bit more realistic, it's kinda fast the way it is...maybe Operation sports has something I can use.

So should I ban DMczaf and Miguel on principle alone? Because this is a pretty serious transgression on their part. Your comments and suggestions are welcome.

I preferred 2003 over 2004, but this year 2005 looks pretty good. Espn is only 20 dollars though.
