Doesnt that effectively lead to the same point? He wanted more money, either it was from an ego thing or he thought he was low balled, it still comes down to more money.

Im not exactly sure how its not huge then

I'm happy to see the Dream Team in the game. They better put the Legends and Olympic teams in Teamup though!

Maybe everyone should tweet @ScottiePippen telling him how you would like to see him in the game. Twitter is a powerful tool, maybe he gets the point and gets a deal done!

Maybe he was low balled. My point was that dont drag his name in the dirty if you dont know what was offered

Who knows what Pippen wanted, I've met him before and he isn't the most likable and easy going guy.

Either way, here's to hoping he can be edited in.

It looks like 2K put minimal effort into this "huge announcement". They just used old player faces from 2K11 and 12, same shoes from 12, only added Barkley (who looks way too muscular btw) while subtracting Pippen, and made some new jerseys. Whooptie-freaking-doo! I am a harsh critic of NBA 2K because I love NBA 2K, kinda like a son. And so far, 2K, you have brought shame upon this family.

Yeah, I mentioned this a few pages back but to repeat, I thought 2K did a pretty solid job of taking classic players who initially looked inaccurate in early footage of 2K12 and shaping them up by release. This obviously doesn't mean it's a certainty they'll do the same this year, but I'm hopeful.

Meanwhile, I actually do think Karl Malone's pretty diesel. He was trimmer back then, but still a brick.



Lastly, I'm kind of curious how they'll handle the shoes. I imagine it'll be tough to outfit any of those guys unless 2K included each of their era-specific models. Even in retirement, I don't think it's free reign for 2K to place whatever sort of shoes they wish onto the feet of these players.

I'm sure they will be able to, but teams on 2K Share and teams included in the original game are quite different. Unless guys have figured out a way to add new courts as well as jerseys.

The PC version will be epic as it was this year but it usually takes half a season to pass before any big updates are released.
