NBA 2K13 Videos - Ronnie Singh Interviews Erick Boenisch and Rob Jones at E3

[GuideMe1]

Interviews are fine & dandy...but do the developers know that 2K12 was one best looking & most frustrating basketball games that I've ever played in my life (I've been playing since Coach K). So U mean to tell me, if I don't pre-order the game, I can't have an All Star Weekend!? What's next...if I don't pre-order 2K14, I can't use a basketball in the game. Just to set the record straight, All Star Weekend isn't for the hardcore dedicated fan..its for the casual fan. SMH.

To be completely honest, I really don't care about whether there is an All Star Weekend. All I care about is whether they are going to fix the game. Will the online servers actually work? Will the CPU stop getting every single offensive rebound, even though I have great position? Will the jacked up passing be fixed? Will I be able to actually control when my online league advances? Will my defenders stop wearing ice skates? If I see NBA Legends on the game..can I use in an online league, the same way I can offline? Will the "gameplay" be just another series of animations? Will I stop missing layup after bloody layup, while the cpu pulls the most amazing moves with junky players? That's an interview that I'd pay 2 pennies to see.

Me too my friend. Let's all just hope that that reemergence of Live will light the fire under these guys and inspire some innovation. I loved 2k11 and liked 2k12, but it's just going to get more and more stale feeling each year at the rate they're going with all the subtle changes. Just make the dribbling more responsive, the collisions more realistic, the animations less drawn out, and the AI smarter and you've most likely got my $60. Oh yeah, and MAKE FAST PLAYERS FASTER THAN SLOW PLAYERS.

The only reason I would want All Star Weekend is so I can be a part of it in My Player Mode. Most likely I'm not going to pre-order it but I feel it would be more fair if everybody got it, pre-order or not.

I loved NBA 2k11. But NBA 2k12 went straight to the trash. Just a waste of $59.99 + tax IMO. The thing that really annoys me is the animations. It feels like I have NO CONTROL over my player at times. And the passing is just horrendous. Why throw it behind a guy on a fast break? And I swear you have to use TCP to complete every pass, other than that, the cpu is Deion Sanders going the other way on a fast break.

All-star game? Cool, but what about the much-requested return of crew games? How bout somewhat realistic ball physics? Can we actually perform a layup without hitting the bottom of the rim or getting blocked by a 6-foot point guard every time? What about the ridiculous computer AI that reads minds, gets every offensive rebound, and can only win by cheating? How about online associations with custom sliders? How about seeing our shot release online? What about actually updating player appearances, accessories, and ratings?

I love 2K, but 2K12 is one of the most frustrating games ever made. If 2K doesn't start addressing the issues mentioned above, then they can kiss this loyal customer goodbye.

After last year, I'd be lying if said I give any merit to anything Rob Jones and SimBaller have to say - They really screwed the pooch with the claims that were made prior to 2k12's release. Unfortunately now the only way to know if 2k13 is any good is either to play it or to watch the forums.

I'm right there with you man. I've said it once, I'll say it again. People don't care about these issues, just look at the wishlist thread....people ask for the most meaningless of things when the core game is off. If a Major majority of the people would focus on what they wanted the developers could not ignore us.
