I played a game about an hour ago and during the pre game warmups Kevin Harlan said "nothing like NBA basketball on a Wednesday morning"

I played a game around 2am this morning and got that too. Was pretty funny.

I think he meant that he already had a $20 credit to use from a previous Amazon deal.

I'm going through My Player and did one half of the first Jordan Challenge and it definitely seems harder. I can't really blow past a defender any more at all.

Yeah thanks for clearing that up. I typed that from my phone and obviously a bit inebriated.

Oops, sorry! Reading comprehension failure. I went to amazon to buy a copy thinking they changed it to $20.

Awesome, I got a couple bucks back from Amazon after having previously ordered at $56.99.

I was trying a Jordan Challenge (45+points, 4+steals, 1+assist) and I fouled out with 2 minutes left trying to get my 4th steal

But wait, you were just posting about how many steals there were in this game. The irony ::

SON OF A BITCH! Missed beating the Arrival Jordan Challenge by a measly 3 points.

Have you played an association game yet? I just played against the Pistons and as soon as Ben Gordon was subbed in Harlan and Kellogg start talking about whether or not Detroit overpaid for him

My game started glitching out a bit after a trophy popped. I had to pause it for a few seconds to stop the graphics from doing this weird flickering.

I was referring to the AI, they probably have stolen the ball 15 times in each game I've played so far...plus countless more passes that were tipped.

It's pretty tough to steal the ball, at least for me.

Both online reviews I've read on this game (Joystiq, IGN) mentioned that the AI defenders must have eyes in the back of their heads in order to steal passes that they had no way of knowing were there. Hopefully that's something that will be patched.

Do they even have the servers on yet? Neither me nor my brother have been able to sign on so that we can play each other online. This is ridiculous!

Don't hold your breath, ridiculous AI steals have been around since at least 2K6.

2K11 is far, far worse then last year as far as steals go.

Any insight on the online network? Is it working or not?

I hope the online is better than last year...

There are a few posts on 2k's forum about the server being down.

I played a game of Team Up and the lag was pretty bad.

Let's face it, the passing system is atrocious in this otherwise great game.

I know steals were bad in the previous years when you tried the long touchdown like passes, but I haven't seen it on regular ones.

Re: NBA 2K11 - Now with Michael Jordan - October 5, 2010

I played my first game last night and yeah, I had the ball tipped and stolen at least 8 times. Also, on fastbreak outlet passes, why the f*ck is my dude running out of bounds? I turned the ball over another 3-4 times because of that.

How many minute quarters are you guys playing? I did the default 5 mins and I only managed 42 points and that's with hitting five 3's. Granted I was playing as the Pistons and they suck but even still.

I started with 8, but I think i'll need to bump it up to 9 or 10.
