NBA 2K10 News Post

Gamespot has posted their first look at NBA 2K10.

Quote:
"The first time you hit the court in NBA 2K10, something might look a bit different. Yes, you'll notice things like the improved player likenesses, including animated faces, better skin textures, and greater lighting effects. But you might also notice a sense of space on the hardwood that simply wasn't present in previous iterations. As developers put it to me, that's because the proportions between player size and the floor had gotten a bit out of whack in older games, resulting in players that were slightly larger than in real life. The team took a look at all of the player models in NBA 2K10 and made size adjustments across the board, with the result of having a slightly more open feel to the play on the court.

Of course, correcting player proportions is just one of the issues addressed in this year's game. As gameplay producer Rob Jones told me, the team wanted to address animations in a comprehensive way this year. To that end, Jones said his mo-cap team captured something in the realm of 9,000 animations during the mo-cap sessions for 2K10. And while not all of those animations were entered into this year's game, a good chunk have either replaced older animations or been added to the game. As he put it, if an animation is pre-NBA 2K9, it had less than a 50 percent chance of making it into NBA 2K10. Part of that new animation philosophy had to do with providing further definition between players. Naturally, a point guard will have access to a different set of moves than a massive center, but developers didn't stop there. They also wanted to capture the differences between how a 7-foot player moves from how a 6-foot-9-inch player gets around the court. As a result, Yao Ming will move like Yao (assuming he ever plays again, that is), Nene will move like Nene, and Steve Nash will do his thing."

Damn you KNOW it's a serious deal if DC is considering buying Live lol.

I remember the days(on other forums)that he would say that Live was evil and even got on others who would play or even consider getting Live lol.

Why would you count NBA 2k. You celebrate your first anniversary after the first year passes.
 
# 112 jmood88 @ 08/06/09 12:07 AM
And it's the 10th year anniversary. The first 2k came out in 1999.

Live has a lot more to prove then 2k anyday. When I see and play live, and feel the animations are smooth and human-like, then I may consider it..

and they say 2k doesnt interact with the community


(this thread is about to do numbers, i wish i could invest in thread stock)
But but... 2k doesn't listen to their fans?????
 
# 117 Stumbleweed @ 08/06/09 12:15 AM
All I gotta say is that I'm really excited about a career mode in both games, but 2K HAS TO get their **** together with the servers. 5-on-5 is completely ridiculous... it hasn't gotten much better even though the numbers playing are way down. Horrible. And I'm really looking forward to that, so I'll be livid if they have the same issues again this year.

Blogs don't matter if I don't have a pink name giving me a high five while I read the boards. I need that reassurance.
