IGN: Hands on Preview Play As Michael Jordan in NBA 2K11

Sat Aug 14, 2010 8:50 am

For starters, every single one of the challenges (which date from his rookie year to that "final" shot against Bryon Russell and the Jazz) features every player that you'd care about. Whether you're talking about Horace Grant on the Bulls, James Worthy and Magic on the Lakers or Karl Malone and John Stockton on the Jazz, they're all here. What's even more impressive is that they all have their signature moves and styles in the game.

The amount of detail that 2K Sports has poured into every aspect of the package that features Jordan makes it clear that they're leveraging MJ's coveted virtual likeness to the max. Even going as far as to feature every single one of MJ's shoes (25 in all), including the original Air Force Ones. You'll also spot Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul's shoes, all of which are a part of the Jordan brand. Assigning these shoes to different players will net you different attribute boosts depending on which shoes you slip on your player's feet.

lol

I hope there's a way to turn this off...Didn't they have something like this in NBA Street?

The Jordan Challenge sounds great, I expect I'm going to have a lot of fun with it. However, I too am not that keen on the shoes providing attribute boosts, sounds a bit too arcade-like for more liking.

Oh for sure, there's a simple enough solution. Just saying I'm not keen on the concept. ;)

So wearing black AJ1's would lower every player rating and get banned from the game?

Probably not, but that'd be an interesting twist.

It's a creative idea and it ties in with the whole "Is it the shoes?" shtick but for a sim geek like myself it's a bit too arcade-like.
