There is no player lock in the Tournament Edition or the retail version of the game.

Hopefully EA doesn't can this series all together. I just can't get into the NBA games for very long.

There is still the update for the people with the disc version, there just won't be the standalone game that is just the tournament

Yeah I just thought the standalone game woulda made for a nice little downloadable game for $15 or whatever it would've been.

The gameplay itself is OK, but I've noticed some nasty bugs on this game. I've played about 8-9 games so far, and the game has frozen twice on me. The freeze occurs at the conclusion of the game, when it freezes on a picture of the winning team, and the menu that lets you continue back to the tournament screen never appears.

Also, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but when I select multiple teams, often I'll choose to play a game and my games for my other teams will be simulated, without giving me an option to play the game the computer simulates for me, even though it's a user selected team.

So are saying the gameplay is pretty much just like the disc version?
