There has been stiff competition going on between 2K Sports and EA Sports in the development of their latest NBA video game, bound to be released later in 2014.
In a report by Dime Magazine, 2K Sports, the company behind "NBA 2K15", was very busy in Las Vegas adding more detail to their game. The game developer sent facial-capture experts to the Las Vegas summer league to make sure that they have all the necessary details of every player and rookie. Getting the facial features right for each player will ultimately improve their player database and ensure that each one will be easily recognizable in the video game. 2K Sports previously shared how it aimed to make players' faces and other details clearer and more vivid in the upcoming 2015 version of the game.

A representative from 2K Sports said, "Most players come in and say 'whoa that's a lot of cameras'...but it's a static process. They just do a couple of facial expressions and from those expressions we can build movement from that."
For several years, 2K has been the leading game developer in terms of creating a video game focusing on the NBA. EA Sports officially announced its comeback by developing a highly anticipated version of the game called "NBA Live 14". An now with "NBA Live 15", previews have revealed how EA Sports put a lot of effort to make player profiles more defined and realistic than ever. EA Sports spent a lot of time improving the environment and other details of the game so that gamers would have the ultimate experience as if they were actually in a real live game.

According to Attack of the Fan Boy, 2K spent time discussing the matters with game officials to make sure that they capture the facial photo and profile of each player. It seemed as if "NBA 2K15" has more advanced technologyin capturing images and putting facial details and features, compared to "NBA Live 15". But of course, the final verdict is yet to be given as both video games are still to be released later in the year.
2K Sports will be using the same technology when it made "NBA 2K14" and "WWE 2K15", which is still in the works. EA is maximizing the use of scanning technology, which was not as widely incorporated in "NBA Live 14".
So far, 2K Sports is in the lead. In 2013, gamers have reported that "NBA 2K14" was far better than "NBA Live 14". Do you think 2K will reign the NBA video games titles again this year? Let us know below.

White Beyonnie Jenner Analysis

...Ask your father what white privilege is, he will not know. He also doesn’t know that when you say the N word, you’re saying it because Eminem is your role model. But please, your father grew up around drug smoking, Jimi-loving hippies, what does he know? Because “white privilege” is something that is not made up. My mother is fed up with me saying “Stop white people 2k15”; she doesn’t realize that I mean it. I’m fed up with the colour of my skin. I am fed up with the fact that “you only listen to her because she’s white” is a sentence that is true. I am also fed up with people thinking that reverse racism is a thing. I am not trying to be your idol, I am not trying to be the next “white Beyonce.” Because some love Kylie Jenner’s surgically...

Green Buildings

...ACE TECHZION 2K15 Implementation and explanation of the Green Building concepts PRESENTED BY Y.SAI KRISHNA 138P1A0137 Towards the implementation and explanation of the Green Building concept Y.SAI KRISHNA (1256sai@gmail.com) Abstract: The “Green Building” is an interdisciplinary theme, where the green building concept includes a multitude of elements, components and procedures which diverge to several subtopics that intertwined to form the green building concept. Generally, the green building is considered to be an environmental component, as the green building materials are manufactured from local eco-sources, i.e. environmentally friendly materials, which are then used to make an eco-construction subject to an eco-design that provides a healthy habitat built on the cultural and architectural heritage in construction while ensuring conservation of natural resources. This ensures disassembling the building components and materials, after a determined building lifetime, to environmentally friendly materials that can be either re-used or recycled. During their lifecycle, the green buildings minimize the use of resources (energy and water); reduce the harmful impact on the ecology, and provide better indoor environment. Green buildings afford a high level of environmental, economic, and engineering performance. These include energy efficiency and conservation, improved indoor air quality, resource and material efficiency, and occupant's health...
