Greatly improved but also a little more challenging??
The Bad:
Free throws use to be cinch in the past---FUGGEDABOUTIT--in this version.
3-pointers use to be a piece of cake---now you'll have to work for it.
Trying to figure out why your guy just flopped on the floor and is nowhere near the ball?? Yeah...me too.
Remember all those high scores example 145-100 from past versions--well.....that's all gone.
You'll be lucky to get to 85 points and that's if YOU have your game on!
The Good:
More realistic NBA gameplay,mascots,cheerleaders,Kenny Smith at half-time telling you how to improve your game while cracking on your gameplay.
Graphics:well it can't get any better than actually seeing the sweat dripping off the chin of Carmelo Anthony at the free throw.
Basically if you use the analog stick with very little pressure you can hit the 3-pointers but it has to be with a player for example:Carmelo Anthony.
You can't use "Wallace" to make'em if that's not his strong point.
If you use the button,try to use it with very little "mashing".
My advise learn to master the analog stick and you'll be good-to-go!!!
P.S,
Won't hurt to use the "sliders" for your gameplay.
Makes the 3-pointer alot easier...won't help with the free throws.
