NBA Developer Insights: NBA 2K10, NBA Today

Nice stuff. I think I'll have to schedule my time for bball game playing this year, or it's gonna be a mess... Really, it looks like both games are getting super polished and we will have some real quality products. Plus, with to different approaches to one sport, you can't get bored so easily.

For the few days during the season where there are no NBA games taking place (or anytime you feel like playing your team) you can simply use Quick Game to create your own fantasy matchup. All the NBA Today commentary/presentation will still be valid looking back and forward in time

I wonder how this is gonna work in exhibition games. Lets say its March, and I picked 2 teams to play who haven't played since January?

I also noticed they have the new/old sixers logo... i dont know why they wouldn't have added it.. o_O but hey, its nice to see it in the game :X

The game will ship with an extra commentary disc that will contain the possible lines for the dynamic commentary??Can't see how they will manage to put so much extra content on a DL Dvd that was nearly full with 6gb last year.

I don't want to sound like a fanboy (which I'm not) but I'm not sold on this.

I think it's great that they made this upgrade on commentary, it will add more authenticity but IMO at the end of the day it will still be frustrating.

Even if we hear at the beginning of each game "the leader in assist is PAUL/DERON/NASH" "KOBE/LEBRON/DURANT still lead the league in points and shot attempt"."Happy Thanksgiving and welcome to 2k Sports for this matchup between..." "The Raptors are one win away of securing a spot for the 8th seed in the East, what do you think Kenny?"

I mean commentary in a video game will never approach the variety of real life broadcast, so my expectations are pretty low on NBA Today but I hope they'll prove me wrong.
