This is so exciting!! As soon as I saw BG, I felt the tears coming on and had to get myself together.

The visuals are so good. I don't play videogames but I'm sure my sister will buy it.

Laughing Laughing seems like its just going to be "Play Now" Mode like exhibition games no season or career mode this year.

I believe this will increase the popularity of the league . People will actually be able to recognize and name players . More than just the famous ones so this should definitely drive interest up.

I assume this is covered under article XXVI of the CBA. It refers to a side agreement, the "Licensing Agreement", which does not appear to be online. So I really have no idea how this is set up.

OMG we got video guys !! THIS LOOKS AMAZEBALLS ! WOW Dolsons purple hair ! BG looks like a monster , EDD playing like Edd & Even have stewies funny stance and shape . This made my day

Dolson hasn't had purple hair since like her 2nd year and she never had it with the Sky. Maybe they should have gotten player images from at least the last 2 years.

They really should have had me do the player ratings for all the point guards. Most of them would be mad at me though...but the truth hurts Twisted Evil

The court looks great, but there should not be a tunnel behind the basket. Razz

Other than the socks, they did a nice job with Jewell.

Oh, man, if they ever let us create players... I'm going to need help rating the Comets to set up the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.

If they don't let you create players I wonder if they'll let you play NBA players with WNBA players. Then I could just pick Steph Curry or Kyrie Irving and pretend it's her. No one in the WNBA does some of the moves she does, so they would be the next closest thing Very Happy

So does Borders get any credit for this? Seems like the addition of twitter streaming games, Fan Dual/Draft Kings and now video gaming are all sort of big deals in sports marketing/fan engagement.

Yes! I would create the teams and players. Only problem is that I was too nice with skills and everyone ended up having a rating of 99

Did anyone notice that they have EDD at the three, Hawkins at the 4 and Emma at center? You will probably have to change starting lineups to reflect the real life rotations instead of based purely upon player rank for some teams.

I saw Dolson at SF in a youtube video, definitely needs some work.

Hopefully they stated it will be more in depth with future installments so idk if that means Next years game or if they do Updates during the NBA season like 2K does. But heck yeah bring in some WNBA legends or Vintage teams and its over. At that point they might as well give the W there own game if that ever happens. Doubt it though...

I was thinking that , but then again this probably has more to do with EA sports & the NBA pushing this than borders. I know this was in the works for the past 2 seasons. NBA live cancelled the game last year because they could not squeeze the W in on time .
