No Demo For NBA 2K14

[jfeev215]

Why are people so upset about a demo?!?! Maybe I'm too old school, but I remeber the days when you had to just buy the game and see what it offered...no internet to see videos or screenshots, no demos, maybe two or three screenshots from game informer (or even nintendo power). We are so spoiled nowadays and so damn needy!! Even moreso 2K has been putting ut a solid if not very good product for nearly 15yrs now. It's time tested and proven to be a fun, enjoyable and entertaining SIM!! The most important thing is that they stomped out a fierce competitor forcing them into hibernation for 4 long years, just by producing said good product. They didn't take an exclusive rights deal and kill any competition they just made a better product. If any of you angry posters own copies of Madden25 or any Madden quite honestly for the past like 3-4yrs you should be ashamed of yourselves for verbally bashing 2K. That game has been **** forever and there's a strong chance Live14 will be **** too, however at least fans who buy next gen consoles will have an option...I'm not saying but I'm saying!!!

One or the other, never both.

I'm not surprised this happened. Here's the deal. 2k has been shady since 2k11. It started with eliminating crew and removing simulating your myplayer's career. Oh an no ****ing lobbies for online difficulty and what's with the rank being on all star?! (2k12 era). Quietly again disappointed fans with no crew and no sim in my career. Then they eliminated the ability to block dunks. Gave us a high zig zag left then right euro 3 pointer high success rate. Took away interior defense. No one didn't even notice you couldn't change your sleeves color or your teams color jerseys in your my career. Allowed noobs to cheese their way with cash to compete online. Rosters were poorly updated. Trades were still ridiculous (2k13 era). CG gets fake wannabe crew. Wtf? All the way to 21 with 5v5? All your avgs. amount to single digits? No ref? Can foul when you want. Where's the hardwood, fans, jerseys with name and logos? That's not ****n crew. No dev detail on your mycareer...probably because it's copy and paste. Next Gen no crew. Possibly no mycareer either.....2k14 era. Everyone expect mediocrity with options on next gen and a decent vs one person online mode. EA will shut 2k down if their 5v5 mode is on point. They have sweat on players, accessories galore, better commentator, better crowd, and they even have a ****ing crew!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2k I've prepurchased the xbone full price for pick up and guess what. I've preordered live at gamestop the same damn day. Show me what you got!!!!

There wasn't a demo for GTAV guess I shouldn't buy it either...in other words I think some of us are going a lil over board ..How they handled it could be considered kinda ehhh ,but in the end it doesn't bother me...I'm still gonna get it for current gen and next gen...I say wait for reviews you trust before buying if you're on the fence.

It does suck. I can't get this game 'til Christmas

On topic .. I'll probably be skipping current gen now. I was on the fence about it since I'm getting next gen in a month, but with no demo, I won't waste my time with a blind purchase

So what's the build people played during the summer events? the one with MIA vs SAS or Euroteams?
To me they have a demo but they don't want to release it
Nevermind...in any case it's not a full price purchase for me, demo or not
