Re: 2K Sports Invites Fans to "Uncover The Cover" of NBA 2K13

I'm developing a headache, so I must rant to feel better...

People are NOT going to skip out on this game because of who's on the cover guys. C'mon. I wouldn't buy a Lebron tshirt because it's only him on the front of it; THERE ARE ALL THESE OTHER NBA PLAYERS IN THE GAME DESPITE WHO'S ON THE COVER. That's the point you guys are missing. I remember people buying some ugly Jordans just because they were Jordans--yes. But that's ALL they were: Jordans. Basketball games have all the other players in the game! If Jordan is on the cover, it's not just Jordan's game. Am I making any sense here? I mean I seriously have a headache.

I mean, what do you guys do with your covers? Do you set them on top of your tvs while you play your game? Do you sleep next to them? Do you put it on the table when you eat? They're COVERS! I HATE Duke, but I bought College Hoops 2K7 and JJ Reddick was on the cover--but I didn't care. I played the game; I don't play covers.

A lot of people didn't like Tim Tebow when he was in college, but that didn't stop the masses from buying NCAA Football 11. Geez...

Never discount the power of hate though. Some people genuinely don't like the Heat and James and will go to extreme limits to show how much they dislike them. That would mean not buying games featuring said athlete or team. I am not saying it is a major factor but think like this do you think the game would sell more in Cleveland, OH with LeBron on the cover or Derrick Rose? I haven't seen so much hate on a player from people on social media statuses from people who are not rivals of the teams and from teams that are not even in the playoffs.

I feel you bro--I do. And the last thing I want to do is to come off as a jerk so please don't take it that way. I know more young people buy this game than old, but there is still some hate for Jordan in Cleveland--he was a Cavs killer; but people who remember still bought the game. It's a game COVER. If Lebron was on it, a Cleveland shopper might just buy it, play as the Cavs, and try to beat the champion Heat.

I think what people are failing to realize is that it wouldn't be like the old school games. If LBJ was on the cover, it wouldn't be Lebron James Basketball 2013--it would be NBA 2K13, with all the NBA players in it. It's DIFFERENT when you buy ugly Jordans as someone mentioned because it's ONLY Jordan; this game has all these people in it.

Hey--I'm not an exception: I'm the norm. I LOVE college basketball, and I LOVE UNC...but I bought Coach K Basketball; I bought College Hoops 2K7. I HATE Duke; I can't watch all that flopping, jersey grabbing, etc that the Blue Devils do. So I played the game; I didn't play with the cover and throw it up in the air and look at it and put it in the passenger seat in my car when I went out.

I don't like Lebron, but I like basketball video games. I don't have to stare at the cover because it's not his game--it's 2K's game.

Of course he's special. You don't get drafted #1 for nothing! It takes someone like Kwame to make GM's dreams come true.

I don't like the idea of multi cover athletes
