Gamescom 2009 - NBA Live 2010 Demo (off screen)

I have a question can you specifically tell us what had happened before the tip off and if you know if the demo show the pregame warmup?

Like I said in one of my previous post they implemented the original image of the ABC Starting 5 presentation. I searched the web but i couldn't find a screenshot. The cool thing about it is that they have the players 3d models moving in front of that golden background with the teams superstar in the middle of the starting 5 guys. It's hard to descripe I guess you have to watch it yourself to see what I mean though I think that this is a special Finals presentation. Regular season games might have the normal starting 5 presentation with pa anouncer and so on but I don't know for sure.

Right after this ABC presentation there's a sequence in the arena where players walking around before tip-off. I think they did some animations or special scenes with the teams' superstar because you see him behave in his typical way and I can imagine they did that to several others (Kobe, Lebron, KG). Some others are shaking hands or standing there talking but I might forgot those animations because I was so attracted to gameplay

Looks pretty cool to me though I'd hope for some warmup-drills to see before the game but maybe they do that in regular season mode. We could only play the finals (two 4min quaters).

Thanks for the video.... I know u can switch the speed of the game, but it just irks me to how fast its going. There was still warping when it came to rebounding. Hopefully editing the rebound settings will reduce that

player models are horrible just terrible this year, it truely looks like a NEXT-GEN version of nba live 04, but the attitude of the arena and gameplay looks really great especially the Attitude. Players on the bench and the crowd seem to be moving at a great framerate but on court models are terrible...

I disagree, the player models seem fine to me in screenshots we've seen in producer blogs and whatnot.

I see your point.

Player models look okay from far away in the game cam mode. In cut scenes or close ups the lightning sometimes makes the players look like ghosts as if there was a light source beneath the face.

I am not complaining because this game looks amazing to me, but some of the player models I have seen look like they are plastic due to the bright lights shining down on them. I can only assume that this is due to the fact that it is a sweat effect. One video example is the one with Kobe I saw earlier. I do llike the ABC/NBC presentation in the beginning of the videos. Very NICE!!! I LIKE !!!!!!!!

I have a few concerns with this... The crowd looks a bit generic in my opinion.. They're all waving their towels in a broken-paused sort of way. It's intermittent and a bit glitchy.. The animations were definitely a step-up, but where were the fouls? And that dwight howard fadeaway from almost the 3pt line also worries me.. I hope that was just a fluke and not something that will happen often with players that are not even supposed to be taking that.

Here is the video with the introductions to the ABC Finals...Don't know if this is what you were trying to describe or not.

i just saw the 2k10 demo, and i went on a saw all the 2k commentts here i what i posted if u have seen the vid u should check it out
"OK I know its my opinion but if think if the truth be told that was a terrible trailor. now you can be a live lover or 2k lover you still should be honest. i know its just the first trailor but live is 100 steps ahead of that and here is y. 1 the trailor shoes kobes back to much, he looked like 7ft tall, the jerserys on the players look like they floating off of them as they move. And they look way too bulky. now i will admit i love the bump fake and the spin even if it was traveling because they do it and get away with it in the nba all the time. But anybody that says ok 2k is going to smash live off of that is just hating. Because for the first trailor i would be very nervous about the overall game"

I think the live Demo looks great, def improvement from 09 still seen somethings that can be cleaned up but i am very pleased with the steps taken

game looks playable and cool.. but theres still those ackward fast movements, idk why its so hard to capture jump movements, they look so weird. again the game looks fluid and playable than the past years, im getting this for sure. but really they should jus start from scratch, a new engine and everything
