NBA 2K13 Features 92 Dream Team (With Barkley, No Pippen) & 2012 Olympic Team

[JerryJones3]

wtf is the point of this without pippen? we had an (unofficial) incomplete dream team last year. all they did was swap out the player that is missing. nothing has changed other than the fact we have the jerseys now. what a ****ing joke. 2k is becoming the new ea.

Damn Scottie! Way to eff up a cool addition.

I'm not mad at the announcement. I played a lot with the old school teams. Having the dream team & unis is definitely a plus. 2012 Olympic team is cool too.

What would be kinda cool was if we got these teams in the Demo

Most likely cause of Sir Charles.

I'm certain most of us in here would accept less to be part of a bigger picture. But to guys like Pippen, whom are revered as sidekicks, taking less is like a slap in the face to them.

But I guess you have to be a certain type of person to take less to be part of something historical.

Spoiler

Absolutely hinting at Miami '10 here

Anyway you have it these players DESERVE the money because they are making bank off people like me with nostalgia. You pay the man simple as that. You keep working on it. This game makes plenty of money.

This is great news and all but can we use these teams online or just in some boring offline mode??

Well, you could blame Charles Barkley for being greedy and wanting so much money just to appear on the dream team. You could blame Pippen for wanting more money to appear in the game. You could blame 2k for offering him enough money. But if you think about it, it is hard to get the whole dream team into a video game. It is true that the dream team isn't the same without Pippen, but there a solutions to this. a. 2k could continue negotiating with him until the game comes out b. People could hex edit him into the game or c. 2k could include something like ea's gameface or improve the CAP system.
