    NBA 2K15 - How to Face Scan Yourself into the Game

    As mentioned earlier this morning, NBA 2K15 will allow Xbox One (with Kinect) and PlayStation 4 (with PlayStation 4 camera) gamers to scan their faces into the game. These can be used in MyCAREER and MyGM modes.

    Check out the video to see how it works.

    UPDATE: You can re-face scan at any point as you wish. Grow a beard? Have a nice goatee? Get a shiner? All up to you. Will update on spot.

    If you are looking for a PlayStation 4 camera, they are on sale for $40.21.

    Check out the official press release below.

    2K today revealed all-new, in-game face scan technology for next gen consoles that enables NBA 2K15 players to put themselves into the game like never before. Players can scan their face into NBA 2K15 directly through native, first-party camera hardware, allowing them to take customization to a new level for their MyPlayer. Now players can see themselves live the life of an NBA athlete in MyCareer mode and play alongside familiar faces online in multiplayer gameplay modes. With 2K’s facial scanning technology, NBA 2K15 will be the first game on next gen consoles to allow players to create a true, 3D representation of their face.

    Developed by Visual Concepts, a 2K studio, NBA 2K15 is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB. NBA 2K15 is scheduled for release on October 7 in North America, and on October 10 internationally for the PlayStation®3 and PlayStation®4 computer entertainment systems, the Xbox One all-in-one games and entertainment system and Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft; and Windows PC.

    Re: NBA 2K15 - How to Face Scan Your Face into the Game

    I'll be curious to see how easily a gamer can make their face look authentic and natural. As in, will it be a pretty tight process where scanning leads to a very small amount of sculpting in order to make things look real? Or is it going to take a talented creator to make everything look seamless? Or something in between?

    Further, will gamers have to use in-game haircuts?

        Nifty, I especially like the part about being able to adjust the model afterwards.

            It looks like it scans your face/beard but not hair...

            Please, please 2K, have some normal fades lol.

            And since my goatee hangs off my chin I hope it reflects that in game, won't be too picky tho.
            I don't wanna be Jordan, I don't wanna be Bird or Isiah, I don't wanna be any of those guys.
            I want to look in the mirror and say I did it my way.

                  I'm excited but I have my doubts as well. When I watch the video, everytime Ronnie is holding up the trophy his face looks discolored. It looks great on the capture screen, but the colors don't match in actual gameplay. Anybody else notice this?

                      JUST SAYING, but he DID "predict" this after the interview with Rob Jones where they ask him about face scanning technology.

                        Well, at least all those park guys and crew guys can stop complaining about everyone looking the same.

                              the fact is that he predicted it none the less.
