I finally have my copy. Only played one game on default Pro lvl and it looks gorgeous. Just a beautiful game.
I can't get the CPU to miss a shot and The Garnett Test on Pro is proving to be ...a lot like NBA Live (KG scored 43 on Philly and shot 68%). You CAN see the AI wheels turning, though. Double teams -- tie ups in the paint, etc.
More after a few more games. But man..Philly shot 64% on me ..on PRO. Yikes I cannot play defense.
