I just played an hour of NBA2k11 - my first basketball game since NBA '96.
I wonder why I, while turning into a basketball fan, never had the idea of having a go at the comp. Then I remembered - the 4 sets controls. Things were definitely easier in NBA Jam on the SNES.
Well - after 10 minutes of shooting in training mode, I brought Dirk to sink 4 treys in a row. Now this game really might be fun in the end.
