Those AI era Sixer uniforms have been in 2K since the inception of 2K. They were just tacked on as retros the year Philly switched back to the old school logo, kind of how Washington's jerseys from last year are now retroed.

Also, I'm not trying to pile on, but are you referring to the list brought about by a random poster saying he had a friend who worked for 2K. I'd love for additional historic teams in 2K12, but I wouldn't use that post on that website as a basis for excitement. It was so strange how everyone assumed his word to be true.

I had the same thoughts. I was also thinking that on the Toronto retro jerseys during that little pause when I saw an additional retro pop up. Alas, I forgot Toronto had those Huskies jerseys. I was hoping for some Dinosaurs.

I don't mean this in jest, but I wonder what the process truly is for selecting which retro jerseys are made and which are not (for 2K). If it was simply a matter of throwing in absolutely any retros they wanted, I'd have to believe the Phoenix sunblast uniforms would have been added years ago. I'm just curious as to which factors play a part (aside from a moving team like New Jersey requesting no New Jersey reference).

Come on people, complaining about something as small as "leaving out jerseys" That is so wack! What about all of the things that they have done to make the gameplay better and things of that nature. SMH it's sad how some people always find the bad in every good aspect

I suppose we all have our things. I'll definitely play 2K12 and I'm thinking there's a 98% chance I'll love it. But I don't think that means I must never voice an opinion on what more I wish could have been included. Personally, as a really big retro roster guy, the inclusion of more classic jerseys would do a ton for this game. Whereas I look at things like My Player contracts with general indifference, the addition of some '93 Suns retros would get me hyped, for I'd finally be able to relive the '93 Finals. Charles Barkley, Kevin Johnson, Dan Majerle, putting in work. That's a big deal to me. And it's a big deal to others. There's actually a moderate amount of gamers who play 2K for retro teams first and currents second. And again, I'm not upset, but I always wish for a retro blowout like we saw with NBA Live on the previous consoles.

Nice that my Hornets are 7th in D. Can't really ask for more than that.

*covers eyes to keep from looking at videos*

I mustn't ruin the wide eyed "Oooo"ing and "ahhhh"ing when I first boot it up...

But it's SO damn tempting.

I replaced Fernandez with Stevenson in the starting lineup. Dallas jumps to 5th in D

Actually no. They're the Dr. J classic ABA unis. And id rather have them first followed by the DRAZEN PETROVIC DERRICK COLEMAN ERA Blues Then the Blue/Greys.

Not a big deal, but the load time between switching jerseys may become annoying in the long run.

I definitely understand what you are saying. And I'm not really harping on you and the guys that are really into retro. Someone stated that they arent buying the game because there arent enough retro jerseys in the game. I mean, seriously? is that what you are really buying the game for?

i mean come on now, the 92-93 suns uniform has to be added......2k always give that lame Suns retro jersey.....when these jerserys are the ones they wore when they reached the finals against the bulls in '93............2K has to do a better job in getting the more popular retros in the game.
