OS Roundtable: Where does NBA 2K13 Stand?

[baygamer707]

Truth is 2k is never gonna be the game it could be. Just imagine having online leagues where it's 9, 10 human players a team like crew but u play 4 a real nba team. World round leagues 2k could be a giant but the ceo is garbage the stock holders don't no hoop. ANIMATIONS=AUTOTUNE.

Can't say it enough - GREATEST SPORTS GAME I EVER PLAYED even with the flaws, point blank!!
And this comes from a man who HATED that convoluted nonsense called isomotion but TRIED to tolerate it yet it would really make the game unplayable for me, eventually, most years. Analog dribbling just gives me more of a connection and the "feel" of playing is damn near spot on. I'm still gunna need Mike Wang to REMOVE DRIBBLING FROM THE LEFT STICK. I deal with it but it's problematic at some of the most inopportune times. RIGHT STICK ONLY DRIBBLING, PLEASE, MR. WANG, THANK YOOOUUUU!!

And here is part of the problem...how is it possible when games claim to have online modes and pro editors claim to be grading the game, to not have an opinion one way out another about the online side of the game. This it's why online sucks and has sucked for years for 2k because reviewers still give them high ratings desire the flaws. When's the last time you heard a movie reviewer give a movie that's missing part of it a good grade? Is it possible a book would be a best seller if chapters 4-8 were missing out of every copy. But it's allowed in gaming and it's absolutely ridiculous. the developers obviously don't play online either and seems that if it's part of your job you might invest some time in it...that point is for the reviewers too to hold them responsible.

Sorry for the typos...on the phone typing.

Just fix the Rebounding and the foul call for the CPU and we have the best sports game ever #IMO

He doesn't know. He doesn't have the game. Online has been pretty good this year.

My Player is top notch, the only complaint I have so far are me being forced to play Power Forward at times when I'm a 3pt specialist Point Guard, as well as the freezing issues. I"m on PS3 and really haven't expierienced any freezing issues yet but I still hope they get it worked out soon before I run into any. Pros: Top Notch gamplay and controls are better than ever Menus are a lot more crisp this year. Commentary is better than ever My Career is significantly better this year. Cons Missing Players Slight step backwards in presentation (very slight) Freezing issues small bugs that are annoying (such as being forced to play a different position than what you are)

I Agree. They really made this version playable for the below avg. 2k gamer. I like it is slow and I will have I find a slider set. But overall it's good. I don't plan on learning all the advance controls. But they have made it compete me for me and others like me to play it and win, and enjoy.
