From reading that quote, I got the idea that they were referring to the blacktop mode as well.

Stll don't get how guys think EA has rights to NBA All-Star weekend. That's like saying they have the rights to the playoffs and Finals. If EA had rights to All-Star I'm almost certain that would mean 2K wouldn't be able to have a Sprite Slam Dunk contest. Pretty sure NBA 09 wouldn't have had the All-Star Weekend Skills challenge in it. Why guys aren't implimenting it right? Don't know but I doubt it is because of EA having the rights to it.

I agree big time bro games like madden would still be relevant if nfl 2k was still around

Your right! I wish people would get that out of there heads. The ASW was included in the NBA License deal. You know when the NBA decided to split up the rights.

Nice to see that custom soundtracks for NBA2K11 are added to the PS3

willthe pc version be 100% the same as the console version? if so im guessing now they will have this feature.

Damn this sucks if you are correct. Playing a franchise with the 91 Lakers was the one thing I was most excited about.

What's even MORE disappointing is that a couple weeks ago a good friend played 2K11 (he's a video game reviewer for a newspaper), and I specifically asked him whether we could take classic teams into franchise mode. He said we definitely could. That leads me to believe the feature may have been pulled late in the development process.

This is all speculation of course, but it doesn't look good from where I sit.
