Good. I think all sports games need to include better "tutorials" then they do now (which most sport games don't even bother with). We need to teach the game (sport) to kids and give a way that fans of the sport (who aren't gamers) can embrace the game.
Thewas solely to the fact that it was posted on FB (or, more specifically, that FB was the only place I could find it originally posted).

Ah, ok. I completely agree. It's great that they're doing more for that. Sadly though, I don't think it helps much in teaching actual aspects of how the game should be played (when compared to real life). Of course, part of that is my pre-Jordan love of the game of basketball and how much it's been perverted into a high screen pick and roll one-on-one crapfest that it is now.Good.

But, more on point, it's definitely good that they are incorporating a more feedback oriented direction for the training camp stuff. Anything to help people learn how to play the game right is always a good thing.
You could use the right stick in 2k as well, you just have to change the controller settings. I never did this b/c I'm a fan of the shot stick when going to the hole
Here is a new blog on the post-game in 2K12. There will be a post-game controls trailer next week.
Another new blog, this one discussing defense.
Wow, I couldn't be more excited for this game. I finally took the time to read through all their blogs discussing the gameplay and My Player changes and I'm stoked to play the game. Wow.
Other developers could learn from the 2K series in general. I absolutely loved 2K college hoops and miss it BADLY. I watched an OS video and the commentary was ridiculously good it was almost like watching a game on TV.
I know I'd kill for 2K12 college hoops.
Facebook page for 2k says that the demo for NBA 2k12 will be out sometime during the day of Tuesday, September 20th.
Awesome. Will be hopefully try to land a Bird cover at Gamestop, I need to go over there next week maybe after payday.
Online Association - Confirmed
New blog discussing Controls

Damn, this game is about to quickly work it's way into my day 1 purchases, which isn't good, as I may be about to have $500+ tied up very quickly in Navy football uniform purchases in the coming months, but this game is sounding to be too much fun to wait even a month or two on buying.
I was going to hold off, but I think I'll be getting it day one as well. This and Arkham City will probably be my only day ones for a while.
Yeah, especially with Online Association. That could be fun.
Dr Js shoe treads ned to be white though...
and you cant use the legend teams online
Demo out now on 360, later today on PS3.
The lack of options in the demo has quite a few people disappointed and believing this won't endear the game to new players. One four minute quarter, no play-calling, no team selection, no commentary, no sliders, no options, no additional camera views.
Pfft, god I'm starting to hate this half-assed crap with demos. I don't care if it's a smaller download, at least give me a full 4 quarter game, at least 5 minutes a quarter, play-calling, options and sliders. Team selection, I don't really care about as long as it's fun. Commentary, I never care about in any game demo. Camera views, I'll screw around with that in the game. But the no options, sliders and play-calling and only a single four minute quarter, it's a waste. I'm not even going to waste my time and bother downloading the demo for 2K12.
Same here....I know I want the game, but the demo doesn't sound enticing in the slightest.
Yeah, just reading the blogs, seeing the videos and everything, I know I'm getting this game, at least at some point. That has never been in doubt for me with as much fun as I have had with NBA 2K11 since I bought it back in May. But for a crap demo like that, to me it literally is not worth the time, nor the hard drive space, to spend to downloading it. Really disappointing.
