NBA 2K11: Gamers Can Play With 10 Different Versions of Jordan

According to Dan Rovell, NBA 2K11 will feature 10 different versions of Michael Jordan.

Quote:

"The games that fans can play with different versions of Jordan include all of the following: April 20, 1986 (Game 2 of the 1st round of the playoffs against the Celtics when Jordan scored 63), March 28, 1990 (regular season game against the Cavs when Jordan scored 69), June 3, 1992 (Game 1 of the first round of the playoffs versus the Trail Blazers when Jordan scored 35 in the first half), March 18, 1995 (Jordan returns to the game and scores 55 against the Knicks), June 11, 1997 (the famous Jordan "flu game") and June 14,1998 (the day of his last game in a Bulls uniform as his last second shot gives the Bulls its sixth title under his reign).

In each game, gamers are charged with different goals, including matching Jordan's point totals and shooting percentage. If you hit six three pointers in a row like Jordan did against the Trail Blazers in 1992, the virtual Jordan will shrug just like he did in real life on that night. Two of the 10 challenges don't have specific dates tied to it. You can play the 1991 Finals version of Jordan as well as play a game in 1990 style vs. Dominique Wilkins and the Atlanta Hawks, where gamers are challenged with holding Wilkins to 25 points or fewer.

The most challenging version of Jordan to play with likely will be the "flu game," where Jordan scored 38 points against the Jazz in what Phil Jackson would say after the game was the greatest game Jordan played."

Like I said before.. It's a good start.. Nothing groundbreaking tho.. I would love to hear some news about gameplay improvements and of course the most needed area which is Online.. But for now it is a good start I guess... Ghost

Wow, great news, it will be fun to play with the different Jordans, and the different Bulls teams. Hopefully 2K will allow us to match the past Bulls team against any current team also.

As a kid growing up in Chicago in the Bulls era...all I can say is I will pre-order NBA 2k for the first time in my life.

I bet they get 90% of males between 19-39 in Chicago to buy this game.

My guess of the 10:

• 69 pts against Cavs '90
• 92 Blazers Finals
• Jazz Finals flu game
• 55 pt Suns Finals
• 63 pts Celtics '86 playoffs
• 91 Finals Lakers (switches hands)
• (Game 7) 92 Knicks series
• Finally overcoming the Bad Boy Pistons in '91
• Comeback #45 Jordan dropping 55pts in NYC
• Against 'Nique
