Re: NBA 2K9 Hands-On Preview (IGN)

Ugh, the one thing that continues to bug me is the total lack of emotion on the players faces when they are mid-shot, in contact with the defender. Boozer's face would likely be more intense than that nonchalant look he gives in the screenshot. I thought the whole "KG brings intensity" thing was a step in the right direction, but it looks like we're going to get stuck with robot player models yet again.

Boozer looks like my cousin Martin....not Boozer, but the detail overall in his model is great.

Not digging the Kobe / Parker photo, bad angle. Detail is decent though.

Derek Rose's model looks incredible, down to the face proportions to the skin tone and tattoos.

Why does it matter?!?!? It's not like you'll see their faces like that during gameplay! You don't even see their faces like that during a real life game, just in pictures! Calm down...

The jersey textures are the best looking in any basketball game to date. They look 10x better than they did in 2k8.
