Thats suppose to be Courtney Lee the one with the headband for the Nets.

I'm not feeling a lot of faces. Almost every star. I really liked the expressions in the videos, but when I watched this pics, I thought they were a step back from last year (not everyone though)[COLOR=#000000 ! important][/color]

I know we're talking about player faces, but how come 2K can't make the CHEERLEADERS look any good after so many years? They're kind of just there. How about some random cut-scene with the cheerleaders celebrating a play or two next year?

It would add to the excitement of the presentation. And by excitement I mean ahem... immersion of the game.

The worst of all the screenshots showed some hideous hair -- check out the Houston Rockets starting 5 and guess which one I'm talking about.

Just go look. I literally laughed when I saw it.

update: ok there's so many I'll just link it. It's page 8 screenshot #465

2k can never get long hair correctly!! They could at least make it look like hair with some nice textures but nooooo....

Wow that screenshot looks awesome Pared, is that Pierce's fade or is he just pulling up?

Some of these faces are great, some are awful. It's weird so many of them looked fine in the thumbnail but then terrible after you enlarge it (Deron Williams...wtf?!)

I'm hoping seeing these in motion on an HD screen will make a lot of the wrongs right. I don't think you can really appreciate the new hi-res textures with these screens.

I also can't believe Bargnani still looks like Count Chocula. It's funny though because they have Belinelli perfect. I was hoping to see DeRozan since he's our starting SG!

Some players look really scared. Mello looks bad, but it might just be the expression. I'm glad Durant doesn't look like an alien this year. Steph Curry needs some work. Kenyon Martin looks constipated. Luke Ridnour looks great. Overall, If it weren't for some of the weird looking expressions, almost all the faces would look great.

# 50 cjamestx @ 09/26/09 12:57 PM

All of my Cavs look great. Mo's head is a little fat though...lol

# 51 Mayo32 @ 09/26/09 01:01 PM

love seeing the new bobcats jerseys in the face captures for them they look better than there old ones thts for sure

# 52 TheAbstrakt @ 09/26/09 01:04 PM

Why can't they fix G Wallace's hair?! They have it Draft Combine, and they can't change it in his player model? Salmon's hair and beard look terrible too.

Aside from like 10 or so players, the rest are phenomenal.

again why do you care your not even getting the game!

# 54 DustinT @ 09/26/09 01:13 PM

Melo looks like garbage

# 55 inkpimp007 @ 09/26/09 01:18 PM

Kobe doesn't look right, They nailed his eyes but something is off with the nose and mouth area. I thought this when i first saw it and every time I see him he doesn't quite look right. Game looks good though

You're delusional.

You are so damn disrespectful. These guys have posted LOADS of stuff these past few days, and you continue to attack them because they didn't all focus their attention solely on you. I'm guessing you've never heard the word "no" growing up.

That's Courtney Lee. And all these screens are the starting 5's for each team. Bobby Simmons shouldn't be starting though.

well the faces in 2k10 took a big HIT this year. When i say "HIT" i mean it took a bit of a downgrade. But this was expected due to the fact that this is the FIRST YEAR that a face expression model is placed on top of the 3d skull. I see the facial features are still there, but underneith the face it seems to be a new added expression text.......it's gonna be nice to get the new GTA expressions now, lets just hope they keep a distance on close ups.....

but yeah i admit, 2k10 face models are hurt this time around. This is the risk that comes with trying a brand new engine on top of the face models....at the end of the day WE can still identify who's who, so 2k in my book still nailed it as the best character design models....
