MyPark Trailer for NBA 2K15
With under a week until release 2K Sports has finally introduced a look at improvements to The Park, the online mode introduced in Xbox One and PS4 2K14, now branded as MyPark in NBA 2K15. The trailer doesn't go into great detail but does mention earning "Rep" and the ability to play with friends as "Squads". There's the "Jordan Rec Center" where games become 5v5 with four quarters and NBA rules - partially replicating the "Crew" mode so many desired. Also at the end is a tease of "The Stage...
All NBA 2K15 Overall Player Ratings
It took over three weeks to do so but 2K Sports has finally finished revealing all the overall player ratings for NBA 2K15. Only one of the four players to be rated 90+ wasn't confirmed until now and as expected it's Chris Paul who comes in at 91. He joins LeBron James (98), Kevin Durant (95), and Tim Duncan (90) in that elite group.
Six players follow at 89 overall including Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Love. Continue on to check out all the overall ratings in the base roster o...
First NBA 2K15 Online League Info
In the transition to the new generation of consoles the NBA 2K series lost its Online Association mode which was replaced with basic Online Leagues. The leagues in 2K14 lacked the necessary admin options and tools for any to be successful and server issues sealed the deal on a mangled and virtually useless mode. Even simple settings like quarter length and difficulty levels couldn't be adjusted! An online-based MyGM or MyLeague mode appears unlikely to materialize in the near future but inst...

NBA 2K15 MyCareer Mentors Trailer
The new storyline for MyCareer mode in NBA 2K15 involves being an undrafted free agent that tries to earn a place in the league. 2K Sports released a trailer today that takes a look at the "mentors" aspect which features a player from each team to interact with and be taken under their wing. Last year NBA players in the mode were subtitled and had no voices but this time around someone from each team was brought into the studio to record lines.

No Demo for NBA 2K15
All along it appeared unlikely that 2K Sports would be offering a pre-release demo for NBA 2K15 after passing on doing so with 2K14. That has turned out to be the case with Operation Sports getting confirmation that there will be no demo for the game.
The NBA 2K series is in a position where a demo may not be a necessity but the decision can still be legitimately questioned. While companies have started to move away from the traditional demo (MLB: The Show was really the first and there w...
Face Scanning Coming to NBA 2K15
EA Sports debuted the "Game Face" feature now seven years ago, but the company never invested in updating it and lately have phased out of most of their titles. Game Face utilizes webcams or actual photographs of people to craft created player faces in games. It has always been hit or miss, with some severe problems along the way, but also some decent representations of users or even celebrity recreations that led to some legal concerns.
While the NBA 2K series has offered up arguably th...

2K Sports today released a new trailer for NBA 2K15 that shows off the player introduction sequence for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
