As 2K14 is more of a touchup in that regard and not a complete makeover, the presentation still leaves a bad taste in one's mouth.
I thought *some* of 2k13's presentation was quite nice, like the cylindrical thing showing the featured players and teams. That part just had too much gold but I liked that a bit more than 2K14's take. All the Jay-Z centric musical/gold-frilly/random shields stuff was the wrong feel though.

2K14's rework basically tones down the highs and lows of 2K13's package. The best parts don't look as good, the worst parts don't look as bad. So, I'd really like to see a whole new authentic broadcast experience on NG 2K14. It just wouldn't feel right to have cheap-ish video-gamey graphics and menus overlaid on top of ridiculously authentic looking players.
