Yeah, I miss CH2k too, personally I enjoyed CH2k8 more so than any other basketball thats ever been made. I played that until I switched in 09 to the PS3, because I needed MLBTS and 2k baseball was trash, so I had no choice really. I bought CH2k8 for the PS3, but I learned the hard way back then that consoles werent the same with some games, and CH2k8 on the PS3 had some issues with freezing, along with some other issues. Thankfully now days its hard to tell a difference in games from 1 console to the other thankfully.

I like what 23 and you said about supporting the college DLC even if you didnt play it if it meant getting CHoops back. If we werent struggling financially right now, I would be thinking the same thing, if it meant bringing CH2k back into play. I miss that game so much, and to think now with the technology advancements by 2k how much better it would be graphically, and CH2k graphics were ahead of its time. Thanks to Ed Obannon and some others Im not sure if we will ever see a college game made again from any sport, unless college players start getting paid. While I dont believe they should get paid because they are getting a free education, I do think if done right and all schools were treated equally with all players getting the same amount of money no matter the size of conference your in, then why not allow kids to get a small portion of money from their likeness, but it would need to be the same no matter the skill of player or size of school,to keep things fair. Some schools and coaches will always try to cheat, so its not like this would cause any more issues than we already see.

Kind how every other title is marketed, today? Or even the other in-house product in WWE 2K.

Gaming industry these days is sad

Why are people fine with this? "As long as the rosters are full and accurate, it's fine"
No it freaking isn't! Just because 2k are too lazy to make the rosters complete and accurate, doesn't mean they can now charge MORE money for it.
DLC shouldn't be something we've had for free since it debuted! If the national teams were DLC, fine because we didn't have them (only in 2k13).
2k are getting closer and closer to being EA 2.0

Blame the online aspects of games today - that's what the Devs appear to spend most time on, and everything else suffers as a result, so it has to get shoe horned in as DLC or simply gets nerfed in the process whilst everyone else gets to enjoy the heavily worked on network aspects.

Pretty much standard for most games today.

Gotta be honest, my anticipation has fallen through the floor now. First they give us Euro teams, now college teams - neither are NBA products. I know you guys love that stuff, That's cool, but for me personally, I buy the game because it has NBA stamped on the front. Not NCAA or Euroleague.

I guess we all get butthurt when our own personal things we want aren't included, I just wish they'd have invested the time into more NBA classic teams than Euroleague and college hoops.


Oh well, it is what it is.

Not a big DLC fan, but for 2k nba, I would pay for DLC past seasons-

All teams/all payers/every season. with era specific rules/arenas/etc,

provides revenue to 2k to cover costs, and grow their consumer base, and gives us options for any season we would want


Start with champiionship seasons for MJ/Kobe/Bron/shaq/bird/magic/etc to maximize interest, then expand for other stars' best seasons, then all seasons

People getting excited about the game become more and more monetize? Lol.

Next year we will be paying to play season 2 of mycareer.

Let's see the prices before we get excited...

Now this is something I'd invest in.
