Dev Insight - MJ: Creating a Legend

Postby BodyBump on Wed Aug 18, 2010 7:06 am

The concept for this mode is simple, you take rookie Michael Jordan into today’s NBA and place him on any team of your choosing. From that point on, you will be controlling Michael exclusively as you guide him through his career and define his legacy against the greatest stars the current generation of NBA players has to offer.

Imagine putting Jordan on the Heat. Your starting lineup would be Wade, Jordan, LeBron, Haslem(?), and Bosh. Maybe you’ll want to pair him up with Kobe to see how two of the greatest players of all-time play together. Or maybe you’ll want to put him on the Clippers to battle Kobe and the Lakers head-to-head for the true bragging rights in the City of Angels. The number of scenarios you can create in this mode are endless. What do you think would make for a great story?

Nothing much that hasn't already been confirmed in other previews but good to get another screenshot and it's cool that The Tongue will be represented in-game. Needless to say, I'm still high up on the concept of The Jordan Challenge and MJ: Creating a Legend.

One thing that will most certainly bother me in this mode is the fact that they'll probably make MJ 'undrafted' or - even worse - 'drafted #3 overall in 1984'. I would much rather see the inclusion of MJ done through re-do of the 2010 Draft. In fact, that would be also a neat way to include our own created player.

If I get the game, I probably wouldn't play this mode at all. I don't like player lock.
