Got to say that I've never really played any of previous NBA games but this has me hooked. The create a player part is excellent and gfx are very good as well as the physics of the players/ball etc.

Create a player is great fun as you have to get through trial games to get into a training camp with a team and so on. After that you have contract offers etc etc - fantastic fun!!!

Very very impressed so far with this. Quiet addictive!! Great fun 5 v 5 online as well!!!

£12.99 - a bloody bargain if you ask me!

I usually get my sports fix on the consoles but at that price it's a steal, does it offer xbox360 controller as standard? What kind of graphics options are there?

AVF Slamdunkers vs all comers . . . .

im guessing you need a pad for this?

360 pad supported from the off - will fire up some screen shots later if i get a chance but gfx are excellent and don't seem to be like any old console port. Very impressive stuff

It's better than expected but despite having a Core i7/GTX 280 system I'm getting jerky performance when running across the centre court and when throwing the ball the length of the court. The odd thing is the framerate NEVER dips below 60 fps and the benchmark analyser rates my machine as High and showed an average of around 90 fps during testing (with v-sync off).

Also the game might support the 360 controller out of the box but it neglects to show the buttom mappings onscreen so you're forced to endure keyboard ones instead. Tut!

Graphics are very nice but running the game at 1920x1200 results in a stretched look vertically as it seems to be 16:9 aspect ratio reformatted to 16:10. NBA 2K9 did not have this issue, at least the demo didn't. Also the crowd look freakish with their blocky hands and heads... some heavy depth of field blurring would have been useful there.

Good game otherwise but it really needs a patch to address the issues.
