NBA 2K11: Jordan Moments and Era-Specific Playbooks

08:04 PM - July 22, 2010 by Steve_OS

Okay so by now you have heard that Jordan will indeed be a playable character in NBA 2K11 in a new feature 2K is calling the Jordan Challenge. Each available Jordan moment has a title and goals that must be accomplished. The difficulty in performing these is greatly enhanced with all of the new gameplay-related updates 2K11 will sport this year. This is much more than just old-school rosters plugged into an already built NBA 2K11.

Jesus Christ, I can't take much more of this. MJ is BACK and now classic teams/stadiums to boot!

Did they say you can use classic teams online?

I need to go pre-order, right now.

Will you be able used the Era-Specific Playbooks in associationn mode with other teams?

I gotta say, the mention of the Forum made me smile. Even if the majority of the classic courts are just court art and not entire classic arenas, still awesome.

I'd still be curious to see whether the guys who they could not get to agree to be a part of the game, would be editable.

WOW...this is so good. its great to see 2K setting the standard yet once again...

here's the little snippet i put on my 2K11 Top 40 Gameplay Fixes List...i honestly figured it'd be another 2-3 years before this could be expected, honestly..

"Who remembers the buzz created when Operation Sports showcased those wonderful user-created Jordan Videos right before 2K9�s release date? While I�d love to see the NBA�s Top 25 Moments recreated in gaming (where a user could replay these virtually) how realistic is that without the four or five MANDATORY appearances by Michael Jordan, like Jordan-over-Ehlo, Jordan-switching-hands-in-traffic-against-LA, or Jordan-over-Russell-in-Utah-to-win-it all? There�s no question that MJ is a deal-closer. I can�t even imagine the hype that a �Featuring Michael Jordan!� advertising campaign would create."

SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

# 29 HealyMonster @ 07/22/10 10:35 PM

wow, you can take Jordan and the 91 Bulls into association mode? wow, just wow, im not even a Bulls fan, but heck running a "non sim" dynasty running Jordan and Pippen vs The Miami Thrice, would be spectacular.

I can see myself playing everyhting they have announced so far. Like other sports games have all this extra stuff but I generally wouldnt care for it. I can safely say that Im expecting to put some time into this game just with the Jordan additions.

Can't wait to play this.

Wow they got MJ looking jacked...

Gotta play the Demo though. MJ isn't a selling point for me.

I wonder if the supposedly 850 plays in 2K11 is including historic teams playbooks? My guess is yes.

# 33 Basketball GURU @ 07/22/10 11:34 PM

Do they have bulls intro dat would put dis game over the top!!!!!!!!!

# 34 BlueNGold @ 07/22/10 11:38 PM

After reading all this Jordan 2K11 info, and then reading this article from Czar, I literally just stood up, walked away from the computer, jumped up and down like a giddy little girl and said "holy ****!!".

Give me this game now.

Again, this mean nothing if the gameplay sucks. Jordan doesn't sell to me because the game, like any other previous games since NBA2K7 will be collecting dust if 2K keeps the game engine with the same pace of slow delay in control responsiveness and unbreakable canned animations. They need to go back to the instant flood response of NBA2K7.

# 37 MarvellousOne @ 07/23/10 12:21 AM

OK now I'm liking what I hear much more, you can use classic teams in quick play more and possibly association mode also now I'm loving that, along with era specific playbooks, this is what I call news

3rd thread you said that...blah blah blah we get it you love 2k7...

# 39 bearschicago @ 07/23/10 12:25 AM

I was very surprised to hear about era-specific playbooks. This pretty much guarantees all the current teams will have their own as well.
