  1. Added one more Con to the gameplay I forgot about. Kickball violations occur way too frequently... like WAY too frequently. I think I see one of those violations like once every 10 pro games I watch.
  2. Well I just played the game for almost 2 hours, and I have a lot of good things to say about this game. There are a few minor annoyances, but overall this is definitely fun. http://playstationlifestyle.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/nba_2k10_draft_combine_game_logo-685x251.jpg Create a Player Pros: Indepth create a player feature. They actually look human this year. Additional signature styles and categories add to the deepness of the create a player feature. You can pretty much find your complete style in the game. Sig shots have been improved from last years. Kobe, Rashard Lewis, and Ray Allen have much better shots this year, to name a few people. A lot of new accessories such as finger straps, and much more shoes with a new custom coloring option for them. You can actually set your weight in this year's game, and your body shape adjusts to the amount of weight your player has. Cons: No matter how you make your character, there is always that "default look" to the face. The changes you make aren't very major, it's basically just moving parts around rather than completely changing them. More hairstyles, but they still don't look very good on the players. They look almost 2-dimensional and painted on. Gameplay Pros: Shot animations have improved immensely. Players look like they actually move properly into their own shot, instead of jumping into the set animation out of no where like in the previous versions. The passing rating seems to play a factor this year. In previous titles, you could easily get 15 assists with almost any guard in the league, no matter what their rating was. Now you really need a good rating to be a successful passer, or you'll pay the consequence of an embarassing turnover when you try to make those highlight reel passes to one of your teammates. Fatigue plays a much bigger factor. Not only does using the turbo deplete your energy, but using the left trigger to defend more aggressively does as well. You need to use your player's energy wisely. Defense is much better. No more corny lock on defense, you need to really get up in your defenders face and lock him down. The left trigger still helps with that, but it's not as ridiculous looking as it was in the last 2 years. WAY WAY WAY too many kickball violations. There were 6 of them called in a 20 minute game. Cons: Player movement is horrible. Getting your player from point A to B is a real struggle, and even though your player is supposed to have a low rating, the lack of speed and coordination in every player trying out for the NBA is just ridiculous. Your teammates are horrible. When you are running the point and your objective is to get 3 assists in 4 quarters at 5 minute each, that sounds easy. It is extremely difficult because even when your teammate is open, they will most likely miss their shot. They have to be REALLY open to make the shot. Presentation Pros: Music is great. There's only a few tracks in the DC, but I liked them all. The last 2 titles have had horrible music, but the songs this year look promising. The 2k Insider does a good job talking you through your experiences, saying what you are doing right and doing wrong. The court looks great and spaced out, the whole environment looks great. Cons: None Overall, it's definitely a fun downloadable game, and it will be a fun add on to pass the time until the release of the full game. I recommend downloading it. For 5 bucks, you really can't go wrong.
  3. What's the point of downloading a thread lmao
  4. HAHAHA BS you are more than qualified to type as a court stenographer.
  5. Ah man, that blows. Well there's definitely no rush for them. I was just curious if they were returning or not.
  6. In the little option box at the bottom of the board, it's just IP.Board Lo-Fi OTR Professional OTR Professional Two
  7. Macs don't get viruses and are fast as hell... those are only 2 of many advantages they have over PCs.
  8. BS, I haven't seen one decimal result yet.
  9. Sorry if this was already mentioned somewhere else on the forum, but I didn't see it anywhere so I figured I'd ask. Will they be back or did they cause too many problems with the board?
  10. The title of this topic should be changed to "The most underachieving star this decade". People are picking good players who get injured a lot or picking [expletive]ty players like Kwame Brown lol.
  11. Hey I'd kill for that. Way back in 7th grade (and I swear on my life I'm not making any of this up), I had an openly gay math teacher who was skinny, balding, had a high and flirtatious voice, and wore short running shorts that only went down to right at the midway point of his thighs... EVERY SINGLE DAY (except winters when he would just wear the tightest clothes made for men. When he wasn't standing up to teach us, he was sitting at his desk rubbing one of his legs and eating bananas, staring at one particular student at different times. It was the creepiest experience for everyone in the class. He doesn't work there anymore when I went back to the school to visit a few years later, must have been fired from having too many bizarre complaints filed on him haha. I'm not an anti-gay person, but I was extremely uncomfortable the entire year with the way he would occasionally stare in the direction where my friends and I would sit.... eating bananas.... and rubbing his legs.
  12. The keyboard feels fine lol. And my charger is always in my laptop once the battery power falls below 40%, so that's never a concern for me.
  13. Yeah true. Maybe this will be his year. With his increased role on the team and playing for a new coach, maybe things could work out and he'll finally adapt to his potential. He definitely got stronger during the summer.
  14. Macbook... seriously there's nothing better than it. Great storage space, fast as hell web surfing. Can't go wrong with anything.

  16. I wasn't hating on him, I said I hope he becomes the player he should have been already. I have just always not had much faith in him, but that can change. I don't hate on him though, he's solid, but we all know he could be so much better than he is right now.
  17. Add some text to the left and it will be a good sig. Not bad considering you haven't done sigs in a while.
  18. I hope Andray develops the way he's supposed to. I've always had the least faith in him because I don't see him growing out of his lack-of-discipline box. I'm hoping JaVale or Nick step up the most this year (preferably JaVale, that man's potential is infinite).
