I just saw a report on local LA news on the launch party for the new Midway NBA Ballers video game which attracted the likes of Stephon Starbury, Mitch Richmond and Penny Hardaway. While the game really looks very cool (NBA stars playing street ball at their "HOME" courts - literally home courts meaning Tim Duncan plays at his sea-side mansion in the Virgin Islands) I almost fell out of my seat when I saw a clip of the game's Yao Ming doing a funky Hip Hop style walk in celebration after scoring! This has got to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in a video game! Words fail to describe how weird it was so be sure to check it out! BTW, Yao's home court was a vaguely Chinese scene with Chinese style buildings with angular mountains and a waterfall in the background. Looked like he was playing in a park. The game covers something like 86 players so there is a good chance that Franchise is in there too.
According to the cover on EB Games: Its safe to say that Franchise is in the game At the list below confirms it: http://www.midway.com/cgi-bin/gx.cgi/AppLogic+FTContentServer?pagename=FutureTense/Apps/Xcelerate/Midway/RSK_GameCont&gameid=ZZZ9TPMJVZC&pbio=true
