    NBA 2K9 Multiplayer Hands-On (IGN)

    IGN has posted their hands-on preview of NBA 2K9.

    "Making cuts is also much easier in Team Up than it is normally. Given the fact that the reflexes of a human are nowhere near that of a machine, it's much easier to use a fast player's quickness to make a quick run at the basket when your defender has their own dimwits as well as Internet latency to deal with. If that doesn't work, you can always curl around a few bodies and try to work your way to an open spot back on the perimeter."

              Is anyone else afraid that this new camera angle may be more difficult to play with (or perhaps even easier), thus giving an advantage to those who play with a certain camera angle? (you can switch back to the normal camera angle)

              The new camera angle sounds fun but if it's more difficult to play with I'm thinking some will use the normal view

                I'm guessing it's the same Player Lock camera from 2k8 (or better yet CH2k8 with the transparent hoop stand when the camera swings behind it)

                    have you never played Player Lock camera in a 2k game?

                    it's similar to be a pro but the camera stays behind you while facing the ball at all times. it doesn't back out as far from the action but I'm sure there are zoom and height functions

                        Is there any other way to play? :wink: No I think I'll put my SF at center and press all game and run the fast break. Trust me, I would rather lose then cheese.....

                              Do you guys know if this game will have player lock with the broadcast camera?

                              I'm not sure if 2K8 did. I just discovered this new method of playing video games, but I need the broadcast view.

                              Thanks.
