Three new NBA 08 trailer videos reveal all-new control scheme

With the PlayStation 3’s SIXAXIS controller providing some very nifty motion-sensing joy for those of us who want to get just a little bit more involved with our games, it’s not hard to see why the guys behind the next entry in the NBA videogame series have taken it into consideration. We see that in full effect in this trailer video update of Sony Computer Entertainment America’s NBA ’08. Let’s take a look and see what’s up with this year’s next-gen hoops.

In these trailers, we get a look at how the PlayStation 3’s SIXAXIS controller is changing the way we handle the ball as we know it. Tilting it in various ways makes you do a whole lot of nifty tricks, both on defense and offense. This is good, since it gives the controls a more intuitive style, and leaves the rest of our fingers free for the face buttons. We also get a sneak peek at the remarkable depth of the character creation system, as well as the traditional key controls we can take advantage of for those precision passes.
