It's weird because they're light gray on the team selection screen but are dark gray or black during on-field action. Definitely darker than what Jake Plummer and crew actually used as seen below. Also for some reason, the Cardinals endzones are dark gray instead of red. For Baltimore, I don't remember any plans back in the late 90s or early 2000s for them to wear purple pants, and if the developer was trying to be creative, at least give them the correct purple! Speaking of black facemasks, I just noticed Tampa Bay doesn't have them on the field.....they have pewter instead, matching the helmet. Also notice the Bucs and Vikings are each missing their sleeve patches. How come Vikes vs. Bucs is color-v-color but Cards vs. Ravens isn't?

BigEd76 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 The original Blitz games were usually color-vs-color unless the teams had similar uniform colors (Eagles/Dolphins, Chiefs/Redskins, etc.).....which doesn't explain Arizona vs Baltimore at all 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Maybe the developer decided it would be too close to each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo_prankster Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Also in those earlier Blitz games, I'm pretty sure the Chargers' road uniform had solid blue socks instead of the white socks with the thin blue stripes. The N64 version I think had the Jets in the early-mid 90's uniforms even though they already went back to the Broadway Joe look by the time the console versions came out. 1 Quote The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood, but the Eagles, Jaguars, Patriots, Panthers and others had their sleeve logos, the latter two seen here: Now that I look at the TB/MIN pic again, I think the sleeve logos rotated to the front of the arms at certain angles and you can somewhat see the Viking head logo near the armpit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a direct arcade port, and the Jets were still in the old set when the arcade version came out in '97. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also had high blue socks at home which was very strange. One of my first uniform-related memories. Actually, I don't find that one to be strange. If memory serves, when the set was first announced, they were planning on wearing the navy caps and socks with the home set, and the red caps and socks with the road set. Somewhere along the line though, that was swapped, and I think it took place relatively late in the process, too.

ChicagoOakland Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 The error that has bugged me for YEARS is NBA 2K's botching of the 90's Golden State Warriors uniforms. The number font is hilariously wrong and they refuse to fix it. It's not even close to what they wore. Amazingly, this is a screengrab from 2K17. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The font 2K uses for the RunDMC set is the Friz Quadrata font used on the Warriors' navy/orange/yellow jerseys. Stupid mistake to make, but they probably thought "heh...sort of close enough". 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

pianoknight Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Remember when games in general were completed BEFORE they were released? Now we get rushed-to-market product riddled with bugs that are addressed in future DLC ($$$). It's like buying a car without a transmission. "Oh, you wanted to get into SECOND gear? There's an optional purchase for that." 6 Quote 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

The only new part is charging extra to get the fixes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
