Yeah I'm not certain, just taking a logical leap of faith. Other games have had this type of effect as well (MVP Baseball 2005) and it was optional. For those with no interest in the technicolor or black-and-white effects, I bet at worst we'd have to use them for the actual "Greatest" game then be able to use whatever we wanted after we complete the challenge. But even then, I'd be surprised if they didn't give us the option the whole way.

Does this mean the striped socks will be back also since Dr J is wearing them in that pic?

Probably too much to ask, but yes that would be tight.

There are flaws, obvious flaws that everyone sees, but some of us prefer to point them out while others decide to pretend they aren't there. 2K needs to quit this old school trend and get back in the now. Create a good game of basketball for us to play, not for us to watch.

Boge and others with this philosophy. I know you want quality hoops but trust me when I tell you that the gameplay group works on gameplay all year long. Nothing else. Gameplay was not neglected for this. There will be more "basketball" elements in 2k12 than ... So hang on bro your info is coming. Again gameplay producers work on gameplay all year long.

I hope so. I know Bird's Celtics used to wear them. So did Magic and most of the Lakers, as well as Dr. and most of the Sixers.
