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."

No need to apologize. Maybe for being a Laker fan, but not for that.

** I'm just joking! **

*** Or Am I ?***

Miami is my only hope now

We can still be friends, we just will never be able to talk NBA.

Video games are fine to talk about, though.

# 92 aloncho11 @ 08/19/10 02:39 PM

Remember, no NBA talk...

# 93 youvalss @ 08/19/10 03:38 PM

Back on topic...

I can't wait to see the final MJ - with the knee pad, the new tongue etc.. And to see it in action, gotta have a video!!!
