Dude you haven't been here long enough to make that kind of a statement then

...and again, all this 2k EA stuff is nothing more than a distraction from the real topic and problem


Which is EA and what they're doing right now, and how they've managed to weasel through by doing this after 2 years off


No other major company or game would ever get away with this kind of a stunt without being questioned

....and some newbies are coming here blaming OS

The way I understand it name calling is against TOS and I don't think I qualify as a "newbie" but again you have an animated gif as your avatar so I'll take whatever you say as accurate.

Apologies for posting when I haven't been here long enough as well.

Quit whinning OS. Its not like this is some major gaming media outlet like ign and others. EA doesn't owe us or anyone anything especially when this has been an unfriendly EA site across all games. Yes there is good reason for some of the hate but it's nothing like on the 2k section.

The info will be out this month and we can all make our decisions and I will gladly read the owner and user reviews here and other places.

I wasn't calling YOU a newbie...

I dont even like the term but it applies here with all of the silly talk with guys trying to label everyone who isnt praising this madness some kind of 2k lover when it in fact is nothing more than a way to re-direct what the real issue is.

This has nothing to do with 2k vs Ea... this is all EA here and we all know it

IGN already smashed on the game from E3, but im sure you forgot about that

I don't think people are whining, I think they're pointing out EA for ducking its tail right now

SMH. SMDH. This is why EA is in the spot they are right now. Cause some guys give them the benefit of the doubt no matter what.

Truth of the matter is again, I've just been waiting...

Basketball games go gold at least 2 weeks before release

That would mean an Oct 2 or 3rd release would make the games go gold in mid to late September

What are guys discussing here though even though its August now? "Is the game coming out"

That shouldnt even be a topic, and while I do believe they will release a game, the secrecy and hiding is the last thing they need to do

What people dont realize about Live 10 is that, that team was completely transparent with their marketing, Steph, Mike (doing videos from his home) and the rest completely showed their hand because they worked to gain trust from the community.

At that time, Steph was a community manager before becoming a dev and he was taking some rough comments from posters throughout Live 09 and maybe 08 as well... can't remember... (check his really old posts and you'll see yourself StephensonMC)

These guys arent doing what it takes to gain community trust, they're still disconnected
