I never got why people complained about the hand not grabbing the rim. I mean, you cannot even see this type of stuff while playing at the normal camera view.

I do agree it should be fixed. However, it's not even visable during gameplay unless it's replays (which I always turn off anyways).

So you understand...

Comments like that can easily be construed in a completely unique way.

I don't understand it either but... c'est la vie.

I'm not as hot as the post makes it seem like. It's just that half of the looooong arguments around here start because 1 guy talks **** and people feel the need to ignore all of the sensible posts and address the ****head.

Re: the hand grabbing the rim

It's nothing. It does take me out of the game a little bit when I see it on a replay, but it's an acceptable flaw in videogaming. It is puzzling that they'd have it in the trailer. Sometimes the hands on the rim look good, but this was one of the bad examples. Again, all due respect to Mo, because I love your work.

Oh I always understood. People just talk out of their rear-ends when it comes to "buying Live."

As much as I bash 2K (as yall call it); I know 2K has my heart and I am not going anywhere.

The graphics on Rose look amazing. It's hard to draw anything about gameplay from these teasers, but I'm real excited for it to come out.

Case in point. There are like, two valid discussions about gameplay and a Sim lobby going on, and this dude is skipping all of that to call out the **** talkers. Great.

It seems so many talk about this like it's something new to the series. 2 years ago Live was unplayable while 2k has gotten better each version. So if you want to switch games because Rose’s hands don’t touch the rim or he dunks over Wallace then go ahead. Jump on the bandwagon. Does a company’s track record mean anything here? 2k deserves more respect. Dissing a game from a trailer, I guess. Trailer are just that trailers. Gameplay is what matters most and 2k has been the better game the past few years. This year it looks like it will be a good battle between 2k and Live. Let the gameplay speak not a trailer.

just because a problem has existed before, that means we should accept the problem forever?

that's a dumb way of thinking. if a problem has existed for a long time, we should expect it to be fixed even more for the sake of improvement.

haha relax man. don't get worked up by one person's opinion. i changed my response to refrain from adding to the negativity.

You're close to taking a trip to the cell with all of this banter and bypassing the language filter

The game that has a demo out right now has hands clearly going through the rim (on dunks in the paint against traffic no less), but that's okay right?

That's what I'm saying man...that's why I said people sound like spoiled brats. Gimme a break! People are funny as hell...

Doesn't have to do with defense, the simple fact is that Wallace is still twice his size

Either way it's not a huge deal it's still a videogame and so this stuff is expected. I can live with it

It's true that these problems have existed and aren't really surprises by now, but I think most of us were hoping that by now they would be fixed. This won't stop someone from buying the game that wasn't going to anyways but it is annoying.

One of the big things people have been talking about this year was collision detection etc especially in the air, and this trailer doesn't show that to be any better than it's been in the past.

I'm not familiar with most of the forum lingo man...

Cell?

And I didn't know there was a problem with posting a vid

My bad though...it's your house big dog

I just want to have a great overall experience when playing any of these sports games. Now for me just because something is better does not mean you can not grow old of it or get tired of some of the same things. There are other games to play and new releases coming out. So for me im not locked in to buying a NBA game this year. I could rent both live 09 and 2k9 and then purchase other games. I will find out once we get a chance to try out the demo.

lol...I love this site. All of the unrealistic dunking and collision detection aside...It's gonna be a mix of sim and a little arcade for the ooh-ahh factor. I can live with that...I guess. Is there anything that can be done about the hand to rim interaction/physics to at least make the core basketball moves look as real as possible?

There are so many dunks in 2K8 where their hands touch/grab the rim realistically and there are some that don't. I guess it's something they haven't perfected but I don't think it's really that big a deal.....

Don't complain about the vid if you don't know how to analyze it properly. Wallace tried to take the charge, any player trying to take a charge will fall down. Why do you think the ref whistled for a foul?
