My point is that they keep posting same ole - same ole in terms of trailers and the info they have divulged doesn't sound tantalizing, to me, then on top of it all, we have yet to get a demo. If the DC was indication of what to expect, this year, I'm not happy because I see a few of the things that were a prob still there. That being said, after all the issues this game DOES have with animation laden coverup attempts, wouldn't u think 2K would wanna really fix those probs AND talk up fixing them IF they truly have especially after people have been complaining about many of the issues for years? That's where I'm going with all this. If the demo doesn't make it out by release and I am really digging Live 10, tomorrow, when the demo drops on the PSN, make no mistakes - I am NOT buying 2K10. And truth be told, Live 09 was close to getting my money over 2K9 after playing the demo but the lack of control responsiveness closed the door on that idea. Plus 2K9 finally looked good, player model wise. I did rock with Live 08 more than my 2K8. Basically, their marketing is tiring to a grizzled 2K vet like myself and their lack of addressing the issues in light of what Live is doing is bothersome plus their lack of marketing is great for noobs, not me.

I feel you i was playing 2k9 earlier and there's so much wrong with that game if they dint address any of my concerns i will be playing live 10

Simply awesome to get a personal message from Kobe for OS. I am usually a big college hoops gamer, but no CH 10 and a spectaular NBA 2k10 = 1st day buy for me.

That is pretty awsome. congrats to OS, this site deserves it

As funny as it is, still cool to see him shout out OS. I know you shed a tear Steve...don't front.

Kobe is great and I'm a fan of his game, but by no means is he the G.O.A.T, nor is he even close to touching what Jordan has done on and off the court! Mike is everything Kobe hopes to be. Mike was revolutionary when came to marketing the professional athlete in general, not just basketball video games. Mike was a 6 time champion, 6 time Finals MVP, 5 Time MVP, 10 time scoring champ, Defensive player of the year......ect, ect. I could go on and and on. As far as video games you might be to young to remember Jordan vs. Bird or Lakers vs. Celtics, or Bulls vs. Blazers, Jordan was in all of those games and an endorser for Jordan vs. Bird....so in no way can Kobe touch Mike on any level...not yet at least, and never on a buisness level period! Congrats to OS.....Kobe endorsing the site is off the chain.

I'm 32...Jordan vs. bird. Laker vs. celtics, tecmo nba. I've played all those games...I'd like to see jordan in a next gen nba game. All I'm saying is people now want to see Jordan in a game including me. I've grew watching jordan, bird and magic...I just think Kobe isn't as stuck up or egotistical as Jordan...see Jordan's Hall of fame speech for reference...the guy totally shrugged off his kids like they're pieces of meat. Jordan is still a the G.O.A.T. Kobe is top five...

Some one else here made valid point, Kobe isn't playing against Starks, Ehlo, or russel. Those guys sucked.

not to rain on anyones parade but theres absolutely zero chance kobe bryant ever even heard of "OperationSports" until the day they handed him the script to film that. with that said im not sure why this is such a big deal and getting more attention then gameplay videos

[kennytomson]

i think it's a big deal becuase it shows that this site, and it's members opinion, matter to the developers. if they're coming here to sell games then this can only mean good things for future sport titles.

Its a video with the face of the NBA giving your site a shout out, who carez if It was scripted or not....Point is its a superstar athlete saying "operationsports" out of his mouth...On camera in a youtube world....This thread aint about 2k, its about OS.....

This would be a big deal if "Purple Soda" got a shout out from Kobe....On camera in a youtube world...
