Would be nice if they could incorporate video highlights with scoring updates..

Yes video highlights from around the league is what I've been waiting to see in a basketball game for years. The only game that did this was NBA Live 95 or NBA showdown, can't remember which one, it was basic but nice. NFL2K5 was great with this, its time for the devs to put this in NBA2K10.

This is awesome to me personally... I'm going to prob go all out and chop up parts of songs for just about everything they allow custom music for (I have an MP3 collection of old playoff/Finals music, NBA/ESPN stuff etc on CD's) like I did with NFL2K5... and I'm wondering what the official reason is to not include this feature on PS3. I trust that there must be some legit reason around it, because guys, of course they knew it wouldn't be popular to leave out of the PS3 version. I'm interested to know the factual reason why, from 2K.

Wow, It seems like everything I've wanted in this game is in this year, this game will be freaking sick.

I actually feel like that may have been one of the "Vs." games (Bulls vs. Blazers perhaps?). That was so gnarly.

I'm surprised at all the great information coming from the audio write up. I was not expecting much. I was satisfied before I even noticed custom music would be included as well. I'm not sure to what extent I'll use it, but it'll surely be great to have alongside all the other sweet sounding additions and tweaks.

"In all, we’ve added over twenty-thousand new lines of dialogue this year in support of our new commentary systems. Kevin and Clark were fantastic as always, providing valuable insight and helping to bring these new systems to life. The dialogue in NBA 2K10 is a major step toward delivering natural broadcast commentary."

"During breaks in the action, Kevin and Clark will go Around the League and provide scoring updates from the NBA, discuss leaders for all the major stats, update you on conference standings, including playoff seeding and game implications, and deliver single game promotions of upcoming NBA games, including the All-Star game. "

sick

For me, even as a PS3 owner, I could care less about custom music, whether or not Kevin and Clark tell me about real time NBA stuff IF I'm in my franchise (they should be talking about goings on around the league IN MY FRANCHISE during those times) or if they have 4 million lines of dialogue or, even, if they mo capped EVERYBODY in the world for a googamillion animations - WHUSSUP WITH THE GAMEPLAY??

I've read everything written on 2K10 and sounds like minor things were tweaked, which is OK IF they didn't have Live 10 to compete with which is sounding beyond sick, right now. I even downloaded the Combine demo that was released today on PSN (THANK GOD I didn't have to pay $5, like I was originally going to, to play that crap) - WTF?? I have to admit that it REALLY doesn't make me look forward to this game after initially feeling a bit pumped about 2K10. What's going on in LIve 10 is really starting to sound like gameplay that is waaay ahead of 2K, now.

Bottom line is that this all doesn't matter if 2K isn't really coming with it, gameplay wise. Once again, it's sounding like a hollowed, chocolate Easter bunny.

If anyone from 2K is reading these posts - You got my dough the last two years but I think you won't be, this time around. Minor tweaks and a TON of window dressing seems to be the name of your game. I hope you can prove me wrong but by the sounds of it, I really don't think so.

sucks for ps3 users but im glad "next gen" is finally catching up with last gen . custom arena music is a great feature which i never got to experience since i was a ps2 user before. bout time! id like to see more things brought back from previous versions that have been removed.

anyway, we will have to start a thread where people post which songs are played in their citys arena so we can ultimately come to a perfect nba arena mixtape download with a corresponding document so we can individually implement the songs properly on our 360.
