NBA 2K10 First Screenshot Released

Nice screen, they added some more shader power, like the ambience color reflecting of Shaqs face, nice detail for realism. Looking sweet, kicking the NBA live *** in the GFX department yet again it seems. Like in every other department....

The textures look better and I believe LeBron doing his chalk routine in the background is probably a hit at much needed pre-game presentation.

Let the anticipation begin.

agreed...not really impressed with this. graphics still look a little cartoony and definitely way too glossy. everything needs to be sharper and brighter.

I'm still curious to see the player models - the bodies, though I like 2K9's models a alot. Interesting to see if they changed anything on the models. So far, looking at Shaq - is he a little bit thiner than in 2K9, or should I get my eyes checked?
The chalk thing Lebron is doing is cool, but it's like the minimum standard these days. It's just like LeBron's finger nails biting was the standard 2 years ago. Let's just hope that they don't/didn't spend too much time on those animations, I mean even if doesn't look 100% like in real life it doesn't really matter that much to me. You look at it once...twice - after that you don't really care.

Live always looked better in terms of textures and potential lighting. Now that the E.A boys are focused and going for authenticism I personally feel like, unless 2k pulls out all stops. The road to glory may be over. Mike Wang is bball gameplay genius. 2k7 is still my fav in terms of leaps yr to yr. I love 2k but it always felt cheap and looked pixarish. The gameplay saved it but another yr of the same engine. I don't think I could stomach it, to be honest. But I will hold FINAL judgement til we know more. But as of today 2009 is looking like the year of the E.A. (No offense)

Seeing the screen for the first time, Looks OK, but from years past last year, it really strange that the graphics look like they have taken a hit, WHY?

Same thing happens every year. The screenshots closer to release always end up looking alot better than the 1st 1 they release.
