    Re: Will MJ actually look like MJ this year?

    I'm actually impressed they have several different semi accurate colorways for multiple Jordan shoes this year - though utterly confused why they couldn't do two of the most famous ones in the XI Concord and Bred??!!?

    No matter, done it myself now.


    Discovered that the left/right/back sig size ups are all EXACTLY the same for most of the Bulls players. - for all the talk 2k did about how great the new addition of 4 size ups was - we can't even edit 3 of them unless you play mycareer.

          Haven't tried him yet. Am absolutely dominating with young MJ in this game. Lit the Celtics up for 53 last night.

          Will take a look at the 1991 Bulls this evening - pity really, that's another signature they removed from the game Jordan's layup hand switch - 'The move'.

          Last known sighting, 2k12..........

              Logically not sure why this would be removed ?

                I know, right? Every arena (Current) has authentic sounds, it's standard. Have zero clue as to why 2k removed this feature after 2k12 - we all know they HAVE the music/sound effects, not sure why they don't include them

                Can't be a coding issue, as I said above - the current teams all have arena music.

                Just another question mark.

                  Taht soundtrack was incredible. I miss the Alan Parson's project (Bulls Theme). It gave me chills every time Jordan came out and they rocked that out. You'd think they could have spent a few extra bucks to keep it in the game, can't be that much for them for such an old song.

                      Great to see this thread still going!

                      I've admittedly been hooked on MGSV still but broke away for a solid 10-12 games of 2k against the CPU and a few against a friend. I've split between the current teams and the classics and have to say we may have all been a bit premature in beating down 2k.

                      The classics are not perfect but they clearly got some attention. Playing as MJ has the best it's been since 2k12. His moves are very smooth. Even more important, the 97 Bulls run fantastic sets and really feel spot on. There is a huge difference between 85 MJ, 88 MJ and 97 MJ. With a little signature tweaking and a full overhaul of his shoe colorways...awesome.

                      Drexler, Magic, Kareem all look great. Even Larry got some love. I am hopeful that some roster guys make some great seasons. I think we have a solid base...finally.

                      Edit to add, Awesome OG colorways on those Jordan pics. I see I am not the only one that went in and did that ASAP!

                        I most certainly agree. MJ is beastly in 2k16. Like I said earlier, haven't had this much fun with Mike since 2k11.

                        As for the other stuff, well, it is what it is I guess, hopefully some stuff can get amended, but if not, it's not a deal breaker.

                        Yep, definitely feel the differences using Jordan across different years. Can't believe how fast '86 MJ feels, he gets to the paint at will...pretty much like his real life counter part did

                        Love older MJ though - when I get to it, I'm going to mod a roster and see if I can build at least half of a Wizards team for him to play on. We've got Larry hughes, Tyrone Lue, Rich Hamilton and Oak - even though they played different seasons, might throw them together and give it a run.

                          More than anything I miss the Chicago Stadium organ music. That's almost synonymous with the Bulls!

                          2k12 had this on point!

                              It was actually Sirius by The Alan Parson Project.

                              What i really miss is the ability to put your own music in the game. In 2k12 I had the NBA on NBC theme rocking and all era specific arena music.

                              Daveberg, Love the idea of making the the Wizards. Should be pretty easy to make happen actually. There are a number of teams we can make with the available pool and a decent CAP system. Hoping we see some sweet 90's seasons.

                                Was thinking more along the lines of what you can hear at 2:20 below and most DEFINITELY 6:58
