An Early Look at NBA 2K11 (Slam Online)
 

Slam Online has posted their early look at NBA 2K11.

Quote:
"I started by playing the first half of a Heat/Lakers game, and I was given the Heat to use. The game felt a little smoother than 2K10, with less robotic movement from the players than in previous basketball games. To be fair, I really didn’t have much opportunity to check out the AI or playcalling, which are the parts of basketball video games that have always bothered me.

What I did for the remainder of my hour with the game was what really impressed me. By now you’ve probably heard that Michael Jordan is on the cover of 2K11. Well, there’s a game within the game called The Jordan Challenge. In this Challenge, there are ten sequences to play — The Flu Game, The Shrug, and plenty more — where you play as Michael Jordan and are tasked with replicating some of Money’s most famous performances.

I played the game called “The Arrival,” also known as MJ’s 63-point Playoff outburst as a rookie against the big bad Boston Celtics. To pass this game, you need to at least equal MJ’s 63 points, as well as shoot 50-percent from the floor."

What a horrible review. Anyone of us could have basically written that without even playing the game. The guy didn't mention anything specific or new.

The only ones annoyed are the obsessed yahoos that eat, breathe and sleep 2K11 on these boards. After the trailer dropped there were so many comments on other sites like "I guess the rumors were true! Jordan is IN the game!!!"

So many casual sport gamers are still unaware that Jordan is even playable.

From a marketing point of view, when dealing with Jordan in a video game, I don't think 2K could possibly 'over do it'. He sells and sells well. Until the 40 year old mothers with the cash know about this game and their child's yearning for it, 2K hasn't done enough, lol.

You hit the nail right on the head. A lot of guys here get so wrapped up in O.S., that they tend to forget that not everyone pays attention to the things that are going on with this game, 24/7.

I haven't been this pumped for a B-Ball game in a long time. I really think it is going to be great.

BTW I heard a rumor that if you beat the Jordan Challenge, you can take Jordan as a rookie through the "My Player" mode. Pretty cool if true.
