You could say this about every video game out there. It really must be that hard.

You really think it's hard getting the size of the numbers right on a jersey?

Yes.

If anyone could do it, why haven't you?

Nope, but I wonder if they ever read these boards. I've never seen any art guys from either basketball company on any of these forums. It's a shame there's no direct communication.

Thing is, 2K has gotten it right in the past. Just look at 2K12 thru 2K14 (only reason I don't mention 2K11 is because for some reason, 2K decided to give the 96 and 98 Bulls teams extra long shorts).

Wouldn't happen. Shaq & Webber have beef going on because CWebb thinks Shaq took his spot on Inside The NBA. Ever since then they have not gotten along.

It's not so hard as hiring a staff that's obsessive in terms of attention to detail. Sometimes art directors just can't quality control that much art content-- especially if they or the artists are not actually fans and if the assignments are outsourced, say, overseas.

Things can be missed-- but missing on Jordan, that's hard to accept. It's likely the legends were less of a priority. Also it seems next gen 2K may not have a body type that fits him perfectly (they don't have a ripped body type), but the one that Iggy is using might be a better fit.
