Michael Jordan in 'NBA 2K11.'
CAPTION
2K SportsCurious how Michael Jordan would play alongside Kevin Durant in an Oklahoma City Thunder uniform, or how his airness would perform with the Miami Heat's new power trio? A new mode for pro basketball simulation NBA 2K11 will let players witness for themselves.
ESPN reports this year's NBA title from 2K Sports will feature a mode called "MJ: Creating a Legend." Players will take control of Jordan as a rookie and guide him to legendary status on any NBA squad.
"He is rated a 79 overall, which gives you plenty of room to improve, but he has all of the physical tools of Michael as a rookie -- the fast speed, the high jumping, the quickness -- but he lacks a lot of the shooting skills and the offensive and defensive awareness," NBA 2K11 producer Erick Boenisch tells ESPN.
As Jordan completes seasons during the mode, players will see his appearance change as he ages.
The mode is unlocked after players complete The Jordan Challenge, a feature where players can relive classic moments in Jordan's career.
NBA 2K11 hits stores in October. Readers, what do you think of the new game mode?
