I know this screenshot has gotten more criticism than the others, but I've gotta say I think it looks like a solid A- the only fault I can find is the excessive creases to the forehead, but all in all it's terrific. 1. It looks to be a slightly improved version of last year's Noel model. 2. Hair and beard for Noel is on point, accurate to what he looks like as of this past month (summer league appearance on bench) 3. Build is on point, and was so in Live 15.

Here is the best photo of Nerlens I've found to compare it to:

But that's not just a glitch bro, I can fire up 2K15 right now and find that in just about any paused replay, or even just in screenshots found online. To actually think 2K's graphics -- as they are now -- are as near perfection as possible, it's hard to take that seriously...

Agreed. And I agree with most in this thread -- overall it is a good likeness of Noel, the lighting and detail is great. Problems being he looks older, and meatier in the face. And as someone said, the colors (the red & blue in the jersey) are washed out ...

not trolling or hating, but from both companies. if they're scanning with cameras, how can things still be off? if this is the case, whats the point in scanning? what's the point in mo-capping if it doesn't animate smoothly? j/s
i say this because i want to see EA get back to their "it's in the game" slogan.
real mf'n talk.

Granted I don't watch the 76ers, but when I first saw the screen shot, I was like wtf? Why does he look old.

Then i see his actual picture and is like, OK I see it now, but his cheeks are too big but he still looks old

This game graphically keeps improving, I really feel now they have a foundation & in a few years it can be on 2k level. Post game needs to be addressed, not a lot of post moves.

I can't support the reasoning because I seriously can't put my finger on what it is. I'm definitely not just saying it to bash Live because I really do want to see it succeed.

I thought you didn't like to compare Live to 2k and vice versa? Looks like you are or have always been. (Which I never seemed to understand why there was such a fuss or sensitivity in comparing.) Do we need to go back to the topic with Conley/Isaiah screenshot, comparing Isaiah's shoulders to David West's in that 2k screen? Dude, West's arms/shoulders are jaaaaacked up! No one said Live's graphics were perfect, either. But they are vastly further along than 2K's right now. Differing artistic styles aside, if you think 2k's dated graphics are still better/more realistic than Live's right now, then you are less capable of being objective than you believe. Or perhaps you should get Lasik, like I did
