Who's messing around with this? Been trying to get the face scan to work but it's just not happening.

Let's you play through the college part of mycareer. Pretty fun. The midnight mania intro is fricking awesome, imo. Makes me wish that 2k would make a college game because it would be GOAT.

There's sooo many new animations to customize your guy. I can dab on a fool after hitting a clutch 3 in his face or flex on some scrub after swatting his shite out of bounds. Team celebrations can be done for those into pro-am. Gonna be a lot of butthurt people this year. The way to disrespect a player last year was to flop after owning them. Well, now you can even customize how you flop (MyPark only).

With all that said, I don't think you can change your voice (sorry white guys). Your player's nickname this year is "The President"....terrible but waaaayyyyyy better than "Frequency Vibrations"

I agree but "The president" is still pretty awful. It makes me hate "my player"

How fricking hard is it to get two voice actors? Jesus 2K

On the bright side at least we're not a guy who's a twin of some black girl. It was so ridiculous when they kept saying how my white guy looked exactly like the black sister

Really enjoyed the fact that the story wasn't some corny, annoying mess.

eta: Also one of the easiest 1000 gamerscore I have ever gotten.

Yeah I appreciate the story. They're not trying to make a movie this year, just something simple. Probably will be more once in the league, but I don't think it's going to be terrible like last year.

I thought the Coach K call to play on Team USA was pretty cool. Wasn't expecting that at all.

Same here though I did find it funny that I got that call after only being projected as a lottery pick.

The midnight mania part was my favorite thing about it. I have a feeling they'll eventually try to make a college basketball game, but u never know, they may be satisfied with what they're doing now.

Feel like right now pushing out a full NCAA game would be just too much of headache to be worth all the extra time they would need to make it. I'm completely okay with them just adding a few more schools every year and maybe a couple more playable games.

I finished it this weekend. My face scan came out pretty good on the first try. I just made sure I was in a room with a bunch of light.

I'm looking for to the MyLeague Online this year. Bunch of changes to it. You can now go on through multiple seasons with drafts and player progressions

That's pretty cool. I still won't use it much tho bc I can't really get into it if my team isn't in it

Not going to lie, the flash dance in the midnight madness game was lame. Overall, I think it's pretty good so far. I'll prob start over a couple times to play in college more and try to get better for better stats.

U can't start it over. The only way u can play it again is to make another PlayStation account. If u want to play it 5 times, u will have to make 5 accounts

I downloaded and played last night for the first time.

I saw an email I received from 2K saying if I didn't confirm, it would delete my account in 48 hours.

I think I won't confirm to see what happens.

It might be a work-around for those not thrilled with being only a mid-1st round draft pick
