GCO: "With its recent release, it's time for 2K Games to start promoting NBA 2K10."
New year... and I'm back on the Jace Hall Show website with my weekly snarky looks at recent gaming headlines.
Yes, I'm comparing the people wanting to burn violent video games with someone...
LOS ANGELES, California – Before the slam dunks and alley oops of the 60th NBA All-Star Game that brought Hollywood and basketball together, Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose took to the practice court at the NBA Jam Session at the LA Convention Center. The avid gamer worked with 2K Sports last year and helped NBA 2K10 cover athlete Kobe Bryant award a $10,000 check to the best Xbox 360 gamer in Dallas before last year’s All-Star game at Cowboys Stadium. Rose talks about his gaming habits in this exclusive video interview.
LOS ANGELES, California -- Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant, a three-time All-Star MVP, was this year’s leading vote-getter for the 2011 NBA All-Star Game. The reigning world champion and NBA Finals MVP earned 2,380,016 of the fan votes. He is joined in the Western Conference starting five by New Orleans Hornets’ Chris Paul (1,281,591), the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Kevin Durant (1,736,728), making his first All-Star Game start, and the Denver Nuggets’ Carmelo Anthony (1,299,849). Bryant ventured to Sony’s PlayStation Players Lounge next to Staples Center to check out the newest PlayStation 3 video games. In addition to starring in the Black Ops commercial for Activision, he also plays the game. He talks about his love of Call of Duty in this exclusive video interview.
he should maybe stop playing COD and maybe start playing some Basketball... doesn't look like the Lakers year this year...
The 2K series basketball has always mystified me, how can the player/ball interaction be so bad and everybody rave about this is the best series. Watch the video, Kobe isn't that built. His face is about 70% accurate. and the dribble to hand animation is terrible. Oh and what the $%#@ is a shot stick? Live maybe a lil "acrcadey" at times but it is fluid. Instead of 11 different entities live looks like a fluid intertwining presentation. 2K does somethings right, but ask yourself why does the demo always come out after the release? Videos don't represent gameplay. Oh and btw the dribble handle in 2K has always sucked.
Is it me or does everyone jump when they pass the ball like Ray Allen in real life? also they jump to catch the ball. Who did they get to mocap the dribble? George Mikan? Believe me Live has deficiencies too, but I would think fluidity would be the main priority, Live 95 had better player ball interaction than 2K10. Sorry to rant but how come when 2K comes out with a fake DNA system were supposed to act like they just discovered fire? I'm sorry for all those hangin their hat on the dynasty mode, I buy a basketball video game to play against my friends in real life as well as online, so I could care less who got the better dynasty.
@ flyinrhyno - "Live 95 had better player ball interaction than 2K10".
Please, stop the hatin'.
@ BIGKEV, go back and play live 95. You'll see what I mean. Its not hate. Player passes the ball player catches it smooth. Not talkin about graphics, talking about player/ball interaction. 2K has always been stiff, even their hockey games are rigid. I go into every year open minded, I will not be fooled into thinking the king has clothes on. Honestly which game moves and feels like a real basketball game?
