NBA 2K11 Controller Tips

The slightly revamped isomotion controls have been reveled today in this tutorial video created by 2Ksports. Pretty interesting it looks like the right stick will be involved more in certain things such as the step back jumper. Overall i am pretty pleased with the new animations added as well as some of the old ones that i liked still in the game. Remember though 2ksports has multiple animations they refer to as packages. For instance Derrick Rose behind the back move could look much different and be more effective then someone like jameer Nelson or obviously a bigger guy like Carmelo Anthony. Check out the NBA 2K11 controller tips video tutorial below:

NBA 2K11 Vs. NBA Elite 11: Graphics & Player Models

Which game do you guys think looks sharper? I put up an image that compares player detail and general graphics. Like for instance look at the basketball court. To me this is the only thing that looks slightly better graphically in NBA Elite. NBA 2K11 player models in all the images i have seen really have looked pretty sick. I think 2KSports wanted to take that that to the next level this year. And actually the one other thing that looks sharper in NBA Elite is the crowd. If you look closely at this screen shot comparison you should see what i mean. No wonder why NBA Live was always trash, they spend all there time on the crowd rather then fixing the robotic gameplay haha… The basketball itself looks better in the NBA 2K11 image. But i certainly think NBA 2K11 player models will look spot on this year, especially the superstar players. Click on the image to enlarge it.

NBA 2K11 Gameplay

Pretty sweet find from one of my members on HoopsGaming (Check out the forums) AkronHammer found some NBA 2K11 gameplay. Check out some of the new animations, how much smoother the game looks, player detail (f you can – someone was using a video recorder to capture this.) A big thing i noticed right away was how much more in depth the gameplay commentary is now. You’ll have to turn the volume up to hear the commentary. Overall looks pretty sick and the ismotion looks pretty smooth. Whatcha think?
