NBA2K10 Jordan CAP preview
Click Here for a look at my Jordan CAP in 2K10. If you were able to view the cross-eyed 3D video from 2K9, you can do the same with this image to make it 3D.

Not sure how I'm going to share my CAPs yet. The new stick morphing makes it impossible to type directions. I guess I can take screenshots of every section, but that's not very accurate, if you're off by a little on a bunch of them it could turn out totally different.
Just got NBA 2K10 and am extremely disappointed. For some reason 2K has decided to remove our ability to use retired numbers from teams. Which means no #23 Jordan or #33 Pippen.

In order to use those numbers on the "Bulls" you have to take them into Association/Season mode and export the team. Problem with that is that when you export a team with Created Players, they turn into the default low-resolution models you see on the bench with generic faces. So that's certainly no solution.

It doesn't look like I'll be doing any 2K10 videos, unless they patch in the option to use retired numbers. Here's hoping...
NBA2K9 in 3D
NBA 2K9 like you've never seen before! Michael Jordan drives crosscourt and converts an acrobatic layup around the defense of the Jazz.

Don't worry, I'm not gonna start doing all my videos in 3D. I just wanted to try this out, and I really like how it looks. It's not perfect, but shots like the ball bouncing around the rim really pop out. Try watching it a couple times and focusing on different things.

Use the drop-down menu below the video to select your viewing method. I actually like Cross-Eyed best, it doesn't require any 3D Glasses and it keeps the true color. All you have to do for that is cross your eyes until both images merge in the middle and your vision locks onto it.

The YouTube 3D player is a bit of a resource hog, so it might not play smoothly. The video is originally in slow motion anyways so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Unclicking the HD button might make it play smoother, while degrading the quality.

Check it out on YouTube. And if you just want to see the smooth Cross-Eyed effect check that out on GameTrailers.
NBA2K9: Here Comes Mike
Got my 360 back from RROD repair woohoo, So here's the full version of the play in my "Where Will Amazing Happen This Year?" video. I really liked how it looks at full speed so I had to expand on it and make one of my regular style videos from it.

My final video for NBA 2K9 (I would think).

Check it out on YouTube or GameTrailers.
NBA2K9: Where Will Amazing Happen This Year?
First new video in 9 months! Michael Jordan flies down the lane to jam home Pippen's missed free throw, in this takeoff on the NBA's "Where Will Amazing Happen This Year?" commercials.

This is not a true re-creation moment, as the play really happened against the Blazers during the 92-93 regular season. I wasn't sure if I would even be able to put this together so I saved some time by using my already created Lakers instead.

I plan on making one of my regular style videos out of this play next, with before/after shots, because it looks fantastic at full speed. It'll have to wait though because I suffered my very first red ring of death today, hopefully I'll get it back before 2K10 hits, ha.

Check it out on YouTube or GameTrailers.

Improving CAP for NBA 2K10

NBA2K9 Wallpapers
Added 6 Wallpapers to the 2K9 Downloads section. Featuring the "Where Amazing Happens" shots.
NBA2K9: Flu Game
My first NEW re-created moment for 2K9, the 1997 NBA Finals Flu Game. I did a few edits to my Jordan CAP to give him a tired look, mainly by raising his Brow Center, lowering the Mouth Corners, and closing the Eye Openess a tad. The final shot is of course from my Where Amazing Happens video, since I couldn't capture anything like it in game. It does have a bit more motion in it though, and the crowd moves as well.

As always, check it out on YouTube and GameTrailers. It was in fact just picked up by GameTrailers and added to the Featured User Movies section! :)

NBA2K9 CAPs: Final 96-98 Bulls Players

NBA2K9: The Move
As I said earlier, I wanted to give this one another try as well, with the new Shotstick Advanced, so here it is! Check it out at YouTube and GameTrailers.

Trying to do this one really showed how improved the Defensive AI is. In 2K8 i just ran down the lane and got the shot, in 2K9 I had to take control of the Lakers with another controller and try to clear the lane as much as possible so someone didn't come jumping in and ruining my shot ha.
NBA2K9: Jordan's Last Shot
Here's my first re-creation video, but it's not new necessarily. You can check it out at YouTube and GameTrailers.

It's the 1998 NBA Finals video, which of course I recreated in 2K8, but wasn't thrilled with the outcome so I thought I would give it another try in 2K9. I'm not going to be re-doing all my 2K8 ones, but aside from this one I think the 1991 Finals layup would be a good one to redo. Since we have the advanced shot-stick to actually do it properly. We'll see. Still trying to find a fresh new moment to do.
