hmmmm ,really
Well anyways, here a comaprison of the "thin" body type to a Real NBA player ex: Morris Peterson

Looks a little better. Still wanting a little more though! I realize this is nitpicking to many...

-I wish they had a larger variety of tats. On top of that, maybe even allow leg, neck, shoulder/back tats, etc.

-Shoes. I get that adding licenses is expensive (especially if you aren't EA $$$), but the generics (which looked to still be fairly prevalent in the vids) are just too plain. The white shoes especially. They just stick out in a bad way to me. Create a shoe would be Ok, but honestly if they could just whip up a few basic styles with the ability to select color it would do wonders. They just stick out like a sore thumb to me.

-Always wondered why they have knee pad varieties with holes in the middle, but they are the same color as the knee pad?

-I wish they had the textured elbow pads some have worn recently or in the past (Wade, etc.)

-Body types could be expanded as many have noted...

-Other cool adds would be hair bands (Sasha, Mike Miller, Oberto), goggles (Worthy'esque), mouthpieces (D. Gibson). Oh yeah, another thing; does long hair move yet? Wristbands with Numbers or Initials on them.

-Wish they had short, medium, and long length shorts option. Would make creating retro rosters more realistic. Kind of weird seeing Mark Eaton with shorts below his knee caps?!? A couple retro shoe styles would be an awesome addition too! Remember when they had the mock Converse All Stars! I'm not even a shoe afficinado, but Nike Dunks and Converse Weapons would be cool!

Like I said, looks good (and it could definitely be worse!)...I just wish there was a bit more. Not overly disappointed, as I didn't really expect them to add much. It has been pretty much the same now for quite a while.

THANK YOU FOR ADDING CONTRACTS /end sarcastic remark.... people are so rude and demanding.. show some appreciation. it goes along way. sure you may not have gotten what you wanted but to not notice the other great stuff and just to focus on that doesnt say a whole lot in the eyes of others looking on

thanks steve for doing this.

This is a comparison of a Black guy from both 2k9 &2k8. This really shows how much it improved.

I'm glad they finally fixed the orange skin but i'm a lil disappointed to see you still can't choose home and away shoes. I see you can choose home and away socks tho...maybe this year it won't be a lot of players with black shoes for home games...or hopefully we can edit shoes for every player instead of just created ones.
