BAsed on how it looked on my 50inch TV, that's what I felt it looked like. Some players didn't look human. Players looked overly shiny in 2K14, some players looked better than others obviously

In 2K14, they tried to replicate that hard light, I like how it looks in 16, not too hard, not too soft

to be expected in a screenshot analysis thread nearly 2 months before a game's release with little else to analyze

All this graphics talk got me curious so I wanted to do a little comparing.

Lot of pics incoming.

Also decided to do some comparisons between 2K14 and 15 for DeRozan and Lowry along with some courts.

Forgive me if I don't take the lighting discussion as seriously as some of you. I do think things have been a bit too dark in arenas with 2K15 and would like to see them brightened up, but I find this current over pounding of the lighting issue and 2K's graphics laughable. Especially since I recall complaints about all the reflections on the court not being realistic and the jokes about all the light bulbs they counted etc. etc. in the 2K14 hype train after the game released.

This one certainly got 2K a lot of flack during 2K14's cycle

Now we're suddenly acting like 2K14 was complete perfection visually? Come on people.

You may have a point, but I wouldn't go by this picture. It doesn't look natural. Someone played with the contrast and saturation and made it EXTREME. This jersey can be seen from the moon in the middle of the night.

Are you sure the photo isn't flash photography? The flash always makes everything look brighter than it is.
