Actually, something makes me think that's what the first insight was last year.

wouldnt the developer insight, in video mode, actually help create praise for Jay-z's involvement. Think about it, every video will contain some sort of soundtrack, that will be Jay-z stuff, every video will show off parts of the games presentation, that is another one of Jay-z's stuff.....in essence...an anouncement saying that Jay-z is 'helping' 2k with music in presentation is great....but only once we see the application.

To me, its EA who loves to get Big Names in on their projects for nothing more than the name....so getting excited over a name isnt anything special, getting excited when seeing bits and pieces of the game that shows off what that NAME put into the game....now thats amazing....

Ronnie2k has already said it's not going to be that much footage. IN THE FIRST INSIGHT don't want to forget that. After that we should see a lot more, hopefully we can use some of these videos as references or tutorials etc. This was a big announcement imo Jay-z was bigger tho.

I really wish 2k could have released videos about the gameplay 2 months ago. All they did was release 1 2 minute video showing gameplay and the video was blurry. The game is coming out in 2 months and they haven't even released 1 video explaining much about the gameplay yet. Ea released a 2 hour video about Madden's gameplay 4 months before released. Nba 2k13 is coming out in 2 months and they did'nt even make a video explaining much about the gameplay yet.

Uhh, I hate when Madden is mentioned in a 2k forum and vice versa (I'm guilty of it to) but Madden released a 'alpha' state '4 months prior' (pretty sure that kickoff gameplay was the only piece relevant) and then gave us the meat and potatoes on June 4th.

2k released a video a little over two months ago (was it at E3) -- which would technically be 5 months prior to advance and now they will get to the meat and potatoes 2 months early.

Not sure if I read your post right or not -- forgive me if I'm totally wrong on your thought process.

showing us what they did at E3 was generous...they never show anything at that stage in dev cycle ,not to mention that even to this point in the cycle ....keep in mind that we still have7 weeks to go before launch day..
we are right on schedule to get a taste of nba 2k as gamescom and insights r in the month of august so sit back a little and watch the fireworks anytime now

I know, but I still wish they could have released gameplay videos a little earlier.
