Who are the commentators?

[FreshPrince22]

anybody know? i've seen a couple references to kevin harlan already, so i know he's on board. nothing of the 2nd guy though. i just hope we don't get hit with the "oh, and by the way...clark kellogg's back " when the game's set to come out

For the Jordan Challenge...Please 2K not Jeff van Gundy or the guys from nba tv...they suck...

If it's not possible to for acquire the rights for old school commentators, at least hire some guys who can imitate the voices of the old school ones and give them generic names...

Re: Who are the commentators?

Just invite a buddy to your house, and ask him to do the commentary a-la old school.

Re: Who are the commentators?

If they're going to use guys for old school just get Marv and the Fratello to call all games. Did games back in the '90s and still working together on TNT and for the Nets on YES.

If they got a 3 man team like mlb 2k10 minus Kellogg i will be very happy.

what was wrong with what they did last year? IMO its the best commentary in a video game ever.

the nba today system is great. it's just that clark kellogg blows. half of his line are recycled from old games and the rest are made up of his corny slang. not to mention, he's not even an nba media personality

what do you mean? hes a commentator for the Pacers. IDK 2K10 was my first BBall game in a while so its the first time I heard his lines.

If they do in fact change and make it better, thats going to be awesome.

I just want deeper, more organic commentary with lots of situational lines. You get recycled lines when you change the color man every other year. There's only so much you can record in a given time frame. If they could keep the same two color people together, they could build up a bigger and bigger library of phrases. All that goes out of the window when a new color man has to come in and make sure the very basic lines get in AND lines about specific players.

If I can get great commentary, I could care less who is in the booth.

NCAA Football has a commentary team that doesn't even announce games. Lee Corso doesn't call games himself at all. No one complains about that. Or maybe they do, I don't play EA football games anymore, so I don't mess with those forums.

Re: Who are the commentators?

They haven't said anything about changing the commentators, except that Kevin Harlan will be in the game so I expect Clark Kellogg will be back too. Imo they have been great together. So much more realistic than Marv Albert and Steve Kerr.

I love Marv Albert and Mike Fratello and if they could get them it would be great. I'd love to see what 2K could do with them since they have a great commentator system. They won't be in 2K11 though.

Re: Who are the commentators?

I don't get the hate some have for Kellogg. If it's because some of his lines are repeated from previous years, it's more about the script/programming than Kellogg himself. Just played a game yesterday and compared to a lot of games, the K10 team is right near the top in terms of commentary content and delivery imo.

Re: Who are the commentators?

I wish they add Craig Bolerjack and Ron Boone from Jazz they great

Re: Who are the commentators?

I think it would be much easier for 2K (think deadlines) to add TONS of new lines for a commentator already in the game, than start over with a new one. I guess there are better guys than Kellogg, but if they start over with a new one, they'll probably need another year to get it to the next level. That's the way I see it.

For me its not his lines, as much as his voice. For whatever reason it just pisses me off.
