The PS2 version was solid back in 2K7, which is my afvorite basketball game. From 2K8 it's started to SUCK(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) big time. Better update rosters in 2K7 than get any of the 2K8-2K11 ones. Trust me.

I'm almost certain that M.J. had a lot of say in which cover shot they would use. He's known as a very big control freak and would probably need last say on everything involving his likeness. He'll probably have some say or input on his in-game model also, IMO.

Oh, and I like the image since it involves Jordan's tongue wagging which is his iconic "expression."

hey what happen to the voting option for covers this year.....?well i coudn't have done a better job picking that one myself if i could say so. by no means the color red was chosen for looks (which voting would provide like last year) it was chosen purposely to signify the passion and the determination of a player such as MJ.the cover is flared with the color that many players like Karl Malone and the Jazz would never any time soon forget.the color of the basketbal world in the 90's the color of the bulls.....the color of a champion and as mention on the box art the color of " the greatest of all time".
now october seems too far away....does n e body have a hot tub time machine?

Also from the reveal:

Quote:

We knew as soon as we signed Jordan that we needed to do something special for the cover," said Jason Argent, vice president of marketing for 2K Sports. "This could possibly be the most highly anticipated cover art in the history of sports games and we think the image we came up with delivers on every front.

Co-sign, and that "greatest of all time" is nonsense.
