Like the game is loading, and it shows real-life NBA highlights of Deron Williams while some guy talks about either him or the Jazz, couldn't really tell since sound was down.

Wasn't really checking honestly. The meters/bars under the players were slightly different now though.

Re: Community Q&A: NBA 2K9

Can u still score 100pts in 5 min qtrs? Do they have the steal when u go around the ballhandler's back? When will the preview be coming out and are the any new isomotion moves?

Re: Community Q&A: NBA 2K9

Also an issue in 2K8 is reaching fouls. I have my reaching foul slider cranked up to 100, BUT if I am playing a human and I have them engaged in the post (me on offense); the defensive player is ALLOWED to reach 500 times while I am backing him up and I NEVER ONCE witnessed a reach in foul called in this situation.

Has this been addressed?

Re: Community Q&A: NBA 2K9

In terms of graphic leaps, is this MLB 2k6 graphic jump to MLB 2k7?

Splitting the D with a guard? Wow, I hope we can get confirmation on that. Would be incredible to have.

Nope I didn't.

No clue.

I don't think they do anything different, just the meters were re-done visually. The lock-on D one is a bit different now that lock-on is tiered.

That's not a question I can answer.

Didn't see it, but I hope they didn't take it out completely since it has its place, just since it was the only animation it seemed overused.

By preview you mean demo?

Didn't see any new ones, but my guess is there will be some new ones since they wanted to add more sig animations and so forth.

I wasn't hacking much so couldn't really say at this point.

I wouldn't go quite that far, but it's a nice leap.
