My manager at Gamestop said it's virtually the same thing as NBA 2K6. Said even Tony Hawk looks wonderful.

Tony Hawk looks good? Why is Activision still releasing crappy screenshots to this day, then? I don't believe that.
EAs exclusive NFL deal may have just hurt them in the NBA arena. From what I've read, after the NFL deal went down the NFL2K team merged with the NBA2K team. You got a big team working on NBA2K6 next gen and it is showing. Football is still the biggest selling sports game of all, but I see EAs Live marketshare taking a big plummet.

the players and floor don't look blurry to me...

does that mean i get a new tag now?

My guess is that it's a glitch due to perhaps the net mesh being a texture with transparency and if they modelled the net mesh they wouldn't have that problem. Just a guess though.

That makes sense, you're probably right. We'd need to be able to see down the hole in the middle to know for sure though. In any case, I don't really care as I'll never notice it in the game.
joaomgcd said:Anyone noticed that everything inside the rim is blurred and everything outside the rim is not?
Strange...
Bad retouch on the picture. Maybe the depth of field effect isn't quite there yet and their photoshop dude had to push it --- but he's actually bad at photoshop!!
One thing i wanted to add:
I notice people in this thread starting to realise what is next-gen graphics.
NBA 2k6 is an example of game build on the 360 AND NOT AND UPGRADED PORT OF PS2 OR XBOX CODE LIKE MOST 360 GAMES.
Also, keep in mind that the ragdoll clothes + 60 fps contribute ALOT to the beauty of the visual. Ragdoll clothes probably will be common next-gen so we are in for a treat!

Yeah I really can't wait to see that feature become standard. It adds so much to the naturalness(i love making up words) of the visuals and just looks pretty. It should be standard on fighting games. I know in the E3 vid the new asian girl in DoA had fully simulated clothes, but I haven't seen it on anyone since. Hopefully it becomes standard in DoA5 (if it doesn't make it into this one).
The physic also apply to the hair in DoA4.
Oh yeah and I want to add, I've said it before and I'll say it again, the producers of the Mortal Kombat series should look at digitally scanning real people in 3D (as they did in 2D) like in the Getaway. Obviously things can look so lifelike this next gen...I don't see why they aren't doing so. In the case of NBA 2k6, you got 10 players on the court...whereas a figher only has 2.

Is it on all clothes like pants and such though? I know it's on dangling clothes like belts, hair, and scarf type things, but I haven't noticed it being applied to things like pants and sleeves and the like. Hopefully it will be.
