NBA 2K14 Screenshot Comparison - Ben McLemore & Xavier Henry Current-Gen vs. Next-Gen

[nova91]

Next-Gen looks like crap and it will probably play like crap...

Spoiler

This is my mantra and I will continue to say this as a way to keep me from crying myself to sleep at night because I won't be able to get a PS4 and 2k14 until after Spring midterms(it was a goal I set for myself before I read or saw anything about next-gen 2K14).

You just dont dump 1,000s of cutting edge animations because you have a new engine.

Not that your theory is flawed... But how much better do you think current gen 2k graphics could've gotten... Look at the leap from 2k6 to 2k14?

He kinda has a point, I was sorta wondering the same thing, cause nba 2k graphics has definitely gotten worse... Nba 2k11 looks.noticeable better than nba 2k gamessince in my honest opinion.

.....What?

Take a look at 2k11, then look at 2k13. There is no way you could honestly say that 2k11 looked better. Gameplay, that may be another story in the eyes of some. But graphics? Nope.

I usually agree with you on your post Melbournelad, but on this I have to respectfully disagree, and I will explain why, 2k13 and 2k14's overall graphics aren't bad but its the small details such as bad lighting, less detail in the courts such as the shine of the hardwood, no player sweat not even a little bit, and the totally off colors of a lot of jerseys that make this game look worse then some of the other 2k games. I cant even say player faces look better when star players like Durant almost look unnoticeable. But still that's just my opinion.

No worries man, i guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this haha. I will put in 2k11 followed by 2k13 when I get a chance to compare on the areas you mentioned (last time I played 2k11 i remember thinking it looked a step down graphically to 2k13).

Lol oddly enough I played 2k12 last night and was surprised how much better it looked to me since the last time I played it. Now 2k11 I haven't played in a couple of years so you could be right about that one.
