Thanks DaWolf,, but I'm just curious, how was the game graphically, in terms of player models and faces? I know that 2K talked about this but I wanna hear from somebody that played hands-on

Sounds good. I'm curious if this kind of thing is possible in the game as well though:



Shorter players with excellent shot blocking ability.

@mrdbooky

Haven't you watched the 8 videos? I advise you to view them on HD on full screen. You will see that player models are better, very lean looking and not beefed up, shadowing on players is also improved. Check out the hi-res screens.

As for the physics, player movements and fluidity of the game, man it's feels (yes, feels even though I have just watched) so fluid, organic and "human".
