Drops in a few days.
IGN gave it a 95, which is pretty fricking good.
Improvements include better My Player, online association, and living legends mode.

Get it.

Getting it.

I kinda wish they would've made more improvements to the offline association but the rest of the stuff will do.

I don't like the Y post-up though.. It fricks with my head. I'm so used to using the triggers.

Definitely will be getting it. At first over on OS, they said you weren't able to move the legends around to create the all-time rosters, but they found a way to get it to work.

If you've never done a fantasy draft with the all-time rosters, I suggest you do it this year. The most fun a nostalgic NBA fan can have.

I got a little bored with the demo but thats mainly because the Mavs are a boring team to play with and I want to get into that tutorial mode to learn all the moves in the game. Should be amazing and I know a roster will drop with all of the rookies created after a week

The mavs are my least favorite NBA team.. Playing that demo breaks my heart..

Even when I play association and draft a team.. I will not draft a single player from the mavs or trade for any of them. I despise that team.


....frick Ghazi.

I'm a Mavs fan and Ghazi even tests my patience Pretty sure I've gotten him banned on more than one occassion.

Outside of that, the Mavs do have some decent role players like Stevenson and Beaubois, and I think it will be a blast to play with Dirk after I learn all the moves

One of my favorite players to use on NBA 2k11 was Rudy Fernandez.. Best believe I'm going to be stealing him from the Mavs on my associations.

That dude is lights out from the 3 if you do shooting drills with him for 3-4 months and give him a year to develop.

J.R. Smith was my boy in 2K11. Always easy to trade for or draft in the later rounds and is instant O off the bench.

Hopefully they don't take him out of the game once the lockout ends since he went over to China

Did you ever notice that when you use the trade finder.. Golden State would literally ALWAYS wanna trade David Lee?

I don't think it ever mattered who I put in that trade finder.. If they could dribble a basketball then golden state was willing to trade Lee for them.

yeah, there were some other guys like that also. Kevin Love was another one that would be very simple to trade for

Kevin Love's rating went through the roof after a season or two though. Especially his 3 point shot.

Not sure about David Lee... I never even let curiosity make that trade haha.


Did you play a lot of offline association? I thought I was the only human being on the planet that did that!!

I've never played any sports game online. I feel if you find the right sliders, you can make any sports game realistic and avoid the cheesers

Quite a love-fest in here, but seriously I can't wait for this game. I'm big into the my-player mode and the fact that you don't start out as a 40 overall, is a big step-up for me. Trying to get out of training camp alive with minimal shooting/dribbling/defensive abilities, yeah that was hard.

Can you really hate the game as a sports gaming fan?

If you play sports games, this is easily one of the top 2 sports games for PS3 users being right up there with The Show and probably the top for 360

Same game as 2k11? No?

The rookies aren't in the game and I couldn't care less about the legends.

What's wrong with having a love-fest with me? I'm a loveable guy.
