      Will MJ actually look like MJ this year?



      Looks improved to me....(pic on the left has a filter FYI)

      Honestly, despite some hiccups here and there a lot of the legends look pretty good....looks like the 'cancel classic teams ' stuff was premature, haha...hopefully they keep improving yearly

          I'm so disappointed with these black socks on legend teams and most importantly these wrong air Jordan color ways! I wish they understood how important air jordans being correct on Michael Jordan is.

            Here's they are next to the old gen one more time, simply for the sake of comparison.





            It's an improvement, in my opinion, and I'll take it. But he still seems to hit me as one of those old school 2K9 create-a-player Jordans I used to see on 2KShare, where everything's in place, but it's obvious that it's not quite him, particularly when compared to 2K11.

            P.S. What'd you mean cancel the classic teams?

              I love how everyone has such different agendas on what they want with accuracy. Like I want signature play, face/body, hair, accessories, skin tone, court, teammates, shoes, jerseys, celebrations,

              In that order of importance.

              While multiple are on here about perfecting jerseys, and other on about perfecting socks.

              I'm all in board for them sitting down and getting each legend/player down to the exact (which they make seem harder than it should be) and taking each trait seriously, but it must be hard to please is in the end haha.

                Looks more like Harold Miner :

                Still an improvement over 2k15

                  I think a few folks have already touched on it, but I think one of the biggest issues in this whole classic player thing is how 2K already showed their hand in NBA 2K11 and 2K12. It showed that when this brand commits to classic quality, they're capable of a pretty incredible product. A lot of those factors you mentioned were already en route to being dominated by 2K (the facial accuracy, the era filters, the signature moves, the shorts length, etc.)

                  As such, whereas most of the time when we wish for something in 2K we're left asking ourselves, "Man, is 2K even capable of that? Is that asking too much?", when it comes to classics, we already know what they can do and if nothing else, we at least just collectively wish we could get back to that level.

                  Thinking about it all, it's kind of a bummer because recalling how great the classics were in 2K12, one's imagination goes wild when thinking where those teams should have been by the time 2K16 rolled around. Instead, we're praying to get close to where we were five years ago.

                  That said, it is what it is, and considering the issues 2K's had with the classics, I'm happy to see them back in the conversation with some attention coming back their way. Those 12 new teams seem to have gotten some 2K love.

                    Is his left eye bigger than his right or is it just me? Maybe that's just the moment the screen was taken.

                      Plucked this from the impressions thread. A young MJ, looking improved, though I don't have a ton of memory of 2K15's other than how poor he looked during gameplay:

                        Very impressive... But its gonna feel weird as hell using him with black away socks and fake jordans. Lol.

                          Also, Michael Finley looks just about 1:1 to real life (thanks to tsbmolina):

                          Ben Wallace, also pretty incredible, though we saw a screen of him already earlier in the thread:

                            Wallace and Finley are the best 2 I've seen so far for retros. As good as Kareem. Why they can't get the biggest names right? I don't know.

                                Well...he looks more human...not necessarily more Russell'ish.
