2K Sports announced that 11 time NBA All-Star Kobe Bryant will grace the cover of the most anticipated basketball video game this year, NBA 2K10. The franchise has been the number one selling basketball video game.“It's quite obvious why 2K Sports put Kobe Bryant on the cover of NBA 2K10, which is the best NBA video game,” said Lee, whose recent documentary on Bryant has earned high praise. “One day Kobe and I will go 1 on 1 playing NBA 2K10.”
Kobe was revealed as the cover choice during a TV spot, directed by filmmaker Spike Lee.
“I’ve been playing sports video games for as long as I can remember and honestly, I’ve never seen one come so close to replicating real basketball. What 2K Sports has done is truly incredible and I’m proud to be a partner with them and on the cover of NBA 2K10,” said Bryant. “2K Sports is constantly improving and adding something new to their game every year that makes them better and better, and that’s exactly what I try to do each season with my game. It’s as if 2K Sports has been on a sports video game championship run for several years now, and I’m not even sure there’s a word for that kind of dominance.”
Although Kobe is official, the cover itself will be decided upon by voters. A voting site will offer fans a selection of NBA 2K10 box covers to choose from. Make sure you vote quickly however, as the voting period is open through June 15. The winning cover will be announced the following day. Visit www.2ksports.com/vote and Vote!
