NBA 2K12 Hands-On Preview (CBS)

When I got too close to Shaq he passed it back to Penny, who I tried to get back to defend. Penny seemed like he waited for me to close out then drove right to the baseline for a onehanded dunk. Another time they passed it to Shaq and i doubled off Nick Anderson. Shaq picked up the double and kicked it out to Anderson for the three. This was my first game on 2k12 and i was down 13-4. I asked what level this was in and they told me pro. I was so embarrassed. When I played against Showtime they gave me a healthy dose of Magic and Kareem. Magic backed down some and had his patented floaters in the late. The game knows where it wants to attack and will punish you for your choices. Like I said before, the Showtime perimeter players were backing down against Monta and Steph because they had the size mismatch. D-Rose was aggressive in that fastbrakes i described before. Rob said last year the Ai would see if it had a numbers advantage on breaks and would attack only in those instances. This year, the Ai will attack if its player has the talent mismatch on the break. I saw that happen twice. It was awesome. Man I want to play some more. Sorry for that last line, but the game is really polished this year and will keep you guessing.

This is exactly what i want... the challenge, and not the predictability

Love the different scenarios that Shaq took in line with his teammates as well. Looks like Penny got you for panicking lol

Great writeup by the way, been meaning to tell you

I couldn't agree with you more. I would feel the same way. But think of it like this, I got to play it for like an hour then they took it from me. That's almost and i stress almost worse than not playing it at all. Now I'm stuck with just memories for another month.

WOW! 2K12 is like that? I still enjoy 2K11. I'm surprised my disk hasn't screamed at me for overworking it.

Couldn't agree more. Rob said they gave the mode a lot of attention because of how popular it has become. I asked him about the achievement list that leaked and all the my player info in there but he wouldn't answer those questions. He's a good guy but he wouldn't crack.
