I highly doubt that. The graphic on the uniform selection screen probably just isn't as detailed as the in game uniform.http://gamecinemahd.com/asset/i/d37e...8ff8b3bd52f8bb

Options on the Xbox Live menu:

Ranked Quick Match
Exhibition (Ranked Quick Match, Play a Friend, Custom Match, Create Player Match, Leaderboard).
Card Battle
Home Run Derby
Leagues
Online Features (avatar, player card, leaderboards, online options, faq).

Leagues can have as few as four people and then need to have 2 players all the way up to 30. (so 4, 6, 8, 10, etc.)

Can't tell if the other teams are computer controlled or if a 4 team league means there are just four teams period. This would have fantasy draft implications as well (do you pick from all teams, or just the four in your league?)

Took me a minute to figure out what you meant. I don't see any options to turn that off.

The default batting uses the right stick for your swing. Its a bit different from last year in that you use the left stick to "aim" and the right to stride and then swing.

So last year if you were a righty and wanted to pull you needed to pull back and then swing up toward 10 o'clock. This year you pre-aim the left stick to 10 and then just going back and forward with the right stick.

there is an instant replay feature. its what I used to take those screenshots above.

you also have the ability to save a replay to your hard drive.

and at the end of the game you have top 3 plays, "great grabs" (basically web gems) and then also highlights for any players who have a worthy highlight.

i'm going to try and get these up on YouTube tomorrow.

Thank you! first time ive seen people mention anything about online play.

How are the menu? Im always botherd by 2k menu set-ups .. Im assuming its the same as NBA2k9?

Also, is there any way you can play an online match and general impressions on that would be sweet .. Does it play the same as offline?
