Haslem has a hand tattoo. Never noticed it before.

The ball texture is great! And for you shoelovers, I think that's pretty high res shoes. Don't expect the resolution to be greater than that.

Aren't the Footlocker and State Farm billboards new? Some new sponsors for the game maybe?

Good to see a preview of the game finally. I'm a littleworried that the "ball bouncing off a teammate" could be one of the more that a little annoying feature in the game, like the "Spidey-sense" steals were in 2k11. Not too worried, but it will be something to get used to. Also, just looking at the screen shot.

1. Why does no on have arm-pit hair. That stuff does exist.
2. Why does Dirk's face have a different skin tone than the rest of the body?

1. Cause it wouldn't add anything to the game.
2. That's his new cyberface and I'm guessing, at the point of the build where they took that screenshot, they hadn't shaded his face yet.

This game/ all games are made to be played on really high end monitors/tvs. Just my 2 cents.

Im pretty sure its not my tv....it would make sense that a computer would be a lot faster...

Yeah it's not the TV. If it were the TV you would get lag playing offline too.
Modern TV's has a mode that you have to enable when you're playing video games cause it can't cope with the refresh rate or whatever, but this wouldn't affect just online it would affect offline too.
