NBA 2K11 Developer Insights: MJ: Creating a Legend (With Hi-Res Tongue Screenshot)

05:34 PM - August 17, 2010 by ifriedrice

Check out the new NBA 2K11 Developer Insight. Not really a lot of juice in this one, but there is a new screenshot, showing off MJ and his "tongue". View that screenshot, right here.

Quote:


	"One thing to keep in mind here with this mode is that you will be with rookie Michael, who will only be rated a 79 to start out with. This leaves you with plenty of room to improve his overall rating as you guide him towards super-stardom. I can tell you that his physical skills and general athletic ability are through the roof, but you�re going to need to build his outside shot, his defensive prowess, and his unmatchable killer instinct in the clutch before you can take him to �best ever� status. You can build up Michael�s rating by earning Skill Points and spending them on the attributes of your choice. These Skill Points are earned by in-game stats and accomplishing in-game goals set forth by the game. The presentation for the mode is centered entirely around Michael. The entire menu system has been branded to feel Jordan-centric. The in-game presentation will speak a lot about Jordan�s rise to the NBA early and how he will fit into the team you have chosen for him. From there, they will call out important milestones for Michael and discuss how his season/career is progressing moving forward. I have seen some discussion about whether this replaces the popular My Player mode from 2K10. It absolutely does not, I will be speaking about My Player in the coming weeks in a Developer Insight."

Sorry Moe, already posted

# 4 youvalss @ 08/17/10 05:42 PM

After all the previews I have read, I feel like I could have written this Insight myself...

# 5 arsenal123gunners @ 08/17/10 05:42 PM

I feel this is a waste of an insight

# 6 youvalss @ 08/17/10 05:44 PM

I just love that screenshot. The best so far, in my opinion.

Yup. Looks like it was written a while back and put on the shelf until now.

Oh well.

# 9 Goffs @ 08/17/10 05:45 PM

# 10 bnicolas13 @ 08/17/10 05:46 PM

I'm sorry, but that was a complete waster.

He was still a "poor" guy back then. Not everyone can afford going to the dentist.

Actually there is supposed to be a developer insight on shoes and accessories specifically the Air Jordan's.

but that can apply to all shoes/accessories. Not necessarily only about the AJ stuff.

Does anyone know if you will be able to use rookie Jordan in Association mode?

Can I put him on the current Cavs team and play out his career playing with everyone, not just MJ in the "Creating a Legend Mode"?

Man, it better be... I know they'll have one about shoes, but I don't wanna hear Jordan's name again until it comes out.

# 18 23 @ 08/17/10 06:01 PM

I just want his tongue to be pink though guys instead of the color of his skin.

# 19 aloncho11 @ 08/17/10 06:02 PM

Awesomeness

# 20 Steve_OS @ 08/17/10 06:02 PM
