The presentation is fantastic. This game is just loaded with content.

Typically, whoever owns their estate. Which in most cases is probably a relative.

After watching this video, this is definately a first day purchase.

I do enjoy the commentary in this game, but sometimes big plays are left untouched because of the carry over of conversation they are having. Take for instance Jordan's dunk in this video. They are talking about something non-related and when they are done they leave no commentary for what Jordan just did. It would be nice to see a little bit better commentary transition there.

They already branch out of commentary in 2K10 to say "OHHHHH!" when a crazy dunk happens. They should be able to branch out of a commentary piece to say something like "As Jordan puts that one home" and then lead back into the previous commentary by adding a quick phrase like "As I was saying". Actually you wouldn't even need to add that lead in phrase, they could probably just pause a second and continue right where they left off. It should feel natural.

fail because the NBA finals logo is the updated version not the same as in 1992 and its inside the three point line back then it was closer to half court!

It appears they still made huge leaps in every other aspect of the game and I'm not attempting to sound like an apologist, I'm just suspecting things. They seemed to have gone so far above and beyond, maybe there was a point where it really became "Do we continue with every tiny detail of this Jordan Challenge or do we address some more current art issues?" I love me some classic NBA basketball but it's about to become an "ignorance is bliss" situation for me real quick here. I would have never thought twice about the midcourt line running through the Bulls logo for instance, had Aloncho not just brought it up. Though, I do think the court looks a little white. And not that it really matters, but Jordan looked about even, if not behind the last defender when he caught that outlet pass on the dunk. I'm not sure if he necessarily would have been all by himself there. I've been a defender of our youth throughout this process so I guess I'll continue that trend now. The fellow you mentioned appears to have some sort of gap where his general NBA knowledge should be. I was born in the 80's but I know Wilt dropped 100 points, not 93. Point being, there's a lot of youngsters out there that still hold MJ in high regard and are more than familiar with the history of the game despite being born after particular historically occurances occur. My brothers, born in '96 and '98, are just two examples (well informed about the likes of MJ, Rick Barry, Shawn Kemp, etc). It's just a shame there's other guys out there giving the youngin's a bad name.

LOL you keep thinking that.. You knew and can remember Wilt because 100 is unique..

Eh...it looked good, I suppose. It shows some good stuff for the game overall, but the Jordan mode seems to lack the atmosphere and presentation that would really set it apart from the games set in 2010.

# 28 DatSamuraiRose @ 08/27/10 12:58 PM

is it juss me or the bulls shorts are long and the blazers are short

# 29 aloncho11 @ 08/27/10 01:41 PM

The looks of the Stadium should be something more like this:

Jordans '92 shorts are waaaay to long and baggy

# 32 youngfaze01 @ 08/27/10 02:32 PM

The video wasn't really anything special to me.

Actually the whole Bulls team should have the same short size as the Blazers.

Agreed. All the Jordan content, the NBA Today, Association, My Player, Blacktop mode, online options, attention to detail w/the signature styles, etc... We'll see if it [finally] gets the recognition it deserves

# 35 KyotoCarl @ 08/27/10 03:16 PM

People complaining about shorts length and other cosmetic things have to realize the video we saw was not necessarily the latest build or version. 2K's might have added stuff to it, revamped it or are still to add things to it. Nothing we see yet is final.

Yeah, that's possible, but no one is confirming anything, so how are we supposed to know?

Damm...Drexler digital form look eeriely similar to his real life form. The way he shoot and run back on the court is just like him. However, Jordan is off....he DOES NOT wear baggy shorts. The entire Bulls team don't wear baggy shorts. And Jordan running or jogging motion is wrong. I am not seeing a real Jordan out there. His shooting form i guess is ok...i don't have a problem with his dunks. Free throw motion is wrong.

I do hope they have Jordan back peddle down court after he makes his jump shots like he did in real life.

# 39 PantherBeast_OS @ 08/27/10 03:26 PM

Very nice gameplay. But where is Dennis Rodman at? Shouldn't he be in the starting role with the rest of the team. But again nice gameplay.

Yeah, my friends and I brought that up. I like the gum chewing swagger in the vid. That backpedal with the gum was so MJ. I really hope they have Michael clapping the chalk in Johnny/or a generic announcer's face before the game as well.
