Short Video Clips

Here are some short clips I took with my digital camera. Keep in mind that the quality is not that great...the game looks exceptional in person. This is for an idea of some of the gameplay and some of the cooler moments I saw and is not a representation of the visuals. These are all from replay mode after the fact.

Good stuff..I liked the last one the best, looked like the crowd went nuts on the alley-oop.

Re: Short Video Clips

Ugh, I realize that these were with a digital camera. But the crowd goes up and their arms flail around at the same time, and in one of the videos one player went up to go pump up the crowd, but instead of just doing it under the basket, he ran all the way to the sideline, avoiding players to do it. I'm not liking this game.

That was from replay mode. In the actual game, it goes to a cut scene, and then you walk to who you want to interact with.

The number of things the crowd does is extraordinary, they spent a lot of time on that. You may not be able to see it from these clips, but there isnt a sports game that matches it IMO.

Well then nevermind about the first part, but until they don't have two people doing the same animation at the same time, I don't want to look at the crowd. Even if they had them doing the animations at different times in a second I would be happy.

Re: Short Video Clips

Well I dont know about you, but I rarely pay attention to the crowd while actually playing the game. I can feel when they get excited, jump to their feet, ect...but during those times I'm not watching them to see what animations are being repeated.

Re: Short Video Clips

I love it....I love how the players react after making the big dunk and from what i see the crowd reacts very well to what is happening on the court

thats basically what I was hoping to display with these. The emotion and interaction is great. I also think the collisions such as the charges, blocking fouls, and low post contact is much improved. You can't just keep trying to swat shots down low as you see I got called for a couple fouls by doing that.
