    Yeah so far 2k has overdid the sweat effect, although in the more recent pictures it looks much better.

    Actually, some of the Warriors' ratings have been shown on a screen shot:</p>

    I personally think that some of those ratings are too high, but that's expected considering 2k's headquarters are located in the area. Baron Davis at 93 is too high, Ellis at 84 is too high, Jackson could drop a point or 2, Biedrins could drop 3 points or so, Barnes should be 74-75, Harrington might be an 80, and if Belinelli is a 78, then Durant and Oden are gonna be in the mid-80's. Ugh, oh well. I will tinker those a little bit.</p>

    Stephen Jackson has no potential, or does that mean he's done growing. If so, would that mean that Baron Davis hasn't peaked yet? Hmmm

    I think Beans should be a little higher and Barnes should lose a few points. Are there any other screen shots of team pages? </p>

    Apprently in 2k8, every player over the age of 29 doesn't have a potential rating. That's what I read, somewhere (don't remember where).</p>

    Is that from PS3 or 360? Anyways, live's graphics are still better, way better. Though 2k8 might get a b-B+ graphics, gameplay is A+
