An Early Look at NBA 2K11 (Slam Online)

[Andrew]

Check it out here. Not too much in the way of new info as the quick look only included one hour of hands-on time.

it was set in the new TD Banknorth Garden, not the old Boston Garden

What happened to classic arenas?

[Andrew]

I wondered about that too. Possible scenarios:

1. It's cut from the game/was never in the game and that was a misunderstanding
2. It's not in the build that he played
3. It wasn't selected either due to an error that will be fixed or a simple oversight
4. It's unlockable

nope its a "generic" version of their "generic" TD Bank Garden

looking at my downloaded HD version of the trailer its the same arena just without the video dornas.

note that its the Celtics Arena though not TD Bank Garden to begin with since neither game can get licensing for it.

But in any case, it's not the old Boston Garden that we were under the impression was going to be in the game.

I was never under than impression because of the licensing issues with current arenas.

[Andrew]

I thought they were going to include some throwback courts to go along with the classic teams but perhaps I was mistaken.

[JaoSming]

well the courts are accurate (aside from arena names), but not arenas

[Andrew]

Ah, fair enough.
