Because that Shaq is a lot older and fatter.

Yeah I even prefer the character model 2k had before this most recent Shaq.

A lot of the classic player models haven't translated very well to 'next gen'.

As they can't be scanned, they won't be as accurate as the current day players.

What I've never understood though, is that pc modders make AMAZING legend cyberfaces without scanning, so why can't 2k step up in that department?

Anyhow, I know it's a cop out, but I'd rather a generic looking Shaq than no Shaq at all.

It's because they haven't taken the time to get it right. Sorry, as great as the game is, it's been 3 games now and the faces still look nothing like next-gen. Some are so wrong, it's like they are doing it on a purpose.
