2K/Visual Concepts Team - You owe KG an apology

Postby Dee4Three on Wed Oct 04, 2017 11:57 am

How does this even happen in a sports game in 2017?

How does this make it into production?

I present to you the biggest head of all time.... Kevin Garnett. Now, there are a lot of oversized heads in the game (It looks horrible) but this one really stands out for some reason..

Kobe's face is pretty off as well. Definitely strange given they went to the trouble of bringing them on board for guest commentary this year. Those guys haven't aged that much that a new face scan wouldn't be era-inappropriate.

It's not as much the face as it is the size of the head. It looks ridiculous.

Agreed in regards to KG. As far as Kobe is concerned, I'd say the face itself is in the same category as Larry Bird's.

Yeah the Kobe is horrible. So is the Drexler.

The Kemp and Paul Pierce faces are amazing though.

So inconsistent.

I forgot about this real photo of him holding the trophy.

Good call, he looks exactly like that.

The real issue is that they didn't get all the jagged, Lego brick-like bumps in his skin.

(Incidentally, I took that back in 2007 when I was in New York for the NBA Live 08 community event, on my first of two trips to the NBA Store.)

This KG would be an improvement.
