    I don't know if I'm quite sold on it thisbyear. I have downloaded roosters on 2k16 that are currently up to date and it plays pretty well. That and the whole new shot stick control and choosing the direction. No new throwback teams, ehh, idk.

    I definitely won't be getting it when it firsts releases. But if I start hearing good things and can find it for the right price, then I'll get it

    What do you mean choosing the direction? Like the crossovers etc? I would try out the Prelude, it's free to DL on Xbox1 or PS4. The layup timing is overrated, it's really not that noticeable.

    Just judging off the prelude, there's soooo many gameplay improvements this year. Can't f---ing wait for midnight.

    So I went back and what I was mentioning was the angle you use the shot stick. Straight up or down and it's a perfect shot. Slightly off and the shot itself will be a little off. Not that big of deal, but still..I think I'll hold off a bit. still playing that madden

    Yep, in this year's game you aim shots with the right stick. You can still use the X button, but you will be rewarded more for a shot with perfect or near-perfect aim. There's also a higher chance of f---ing up if you aim it badly tho. Basically it's a high risk, low reward type of thing. Hardcore 2k players will use the stick. I plan on it, but it's gonna be weird getting used to.

    A big f--- you to face scanning. Tried it like 5 times and I couldn't get it right. Managed to make my guy somewhat Asian looking.

    Went to Wake Forest a la Timmy D. :wow5:

    I'm dumb as f--- I'm pretty sure it came out here today (it's the 16th) but I thought that would mean it comes out on the 17th (USA is a day behind) so now I gotta play it a day late.

    I went to Wake Forest too! I played the prelude tho. Did you do the face scan on the app? Or is that all you can do this year? I did it on my phone and it turned out nice tbh. Much better than the alien demon looking f---ers that happened last year lol.
    RIP Joel. Hoping I get drafted literally anywhere but the Kings. I'm projected to go lottery. I hope you request a trade ASAP, that's where players go to die.

    Yeah my Asian roommate didn't even bother with face scan. He just manually sculpts his own face and it turns out pretty well. And yeah the Kings aren't a bad 2K team. Hopefully Boogie doesn't dip before you guys can become something special.

    Ended up just taking the $65 credit and copped the $100 Kobe Legend Edition Gold for $30. @Big Mitch I didn't see your message til right before I got off bro, I installed the game and let it download while my brother was playing fifa.

    I might just pre-order on my Xbox next year, I think if you did you could have downloaded the game before 11pm and had it ready to go as soon as it dropped.
