It reminds me of a joke by, I believe, Katt Williams. He's talking about sex and how there are girls that won't put out easy. They make you wait and wait and by doing so they have you hooked. Your waiting for that moment and by the time it comes its great because you waited so long. If she gives it up quick and often you'll get bored of her quick. He also relates it to food, specifically crackers. If you eat the same crackers everything single day you'll get bored. Don't eat for a week and someone hands you a cracker your going to eat it and love every single Seco d "best damn cracker I ever had."

I was just listening to that joke a few days ago at work on Netflix lol and it was Eddie Murphy, but maybe Katt did the same joke much later.

But I see your point but I can understand both sides. Waiting also could build a lot of anticipation and hype and also speculation about things that's not true about the game. When they do finally release something, a lot of people are disappointed because of the hype built up.. Not saying 2K is anything like this but look how Joe Montana football turned out making people wait it turned into a lot of different things and people were very disappointed.

I wish 2K would release more information but most people do because we're all interested in the game. But, I don't even complain about it. When the news come, it comes. Because I know 9/10, I am going to buy 2K regardless and the only time I regretted it was 2K12.

I am sure we'll get most of the information before the game is released. And even if it's not the info you wanted, just rent it and see if it's worth your purchase. I know it's hard because we love 2K. Especially how excited I am for this years 2K with the return of Crew, MyCareer, online leagues, and hopefully an improved association mode. Will feel like 2K11 again where I am playing all types of modes.

I just hate when 2K make announcements for announcements lol.

Currys jump shot is still slow. Not even surprised, this same company had him as a normal timed release a year ago.

Don't see how the dev cycle changes that we're only a handful of weeks away from release. 1 year cycle or 8 year cycle, this close to release, many consumers expect more footage. But.. this is 2K, a highly established product, so I get there's no reason for 2K to release anything right now.

Guys.. idk but i loved the Days when i didnt knew **** about the new games.. I remember the ISS Days (Pro Evolution Soccer Series).. i bought it every Year and i didnt have Internet to watch Videos or Reviews where every Mode is Played and every detail is told to u.. i just saw some Pics from magazines.. I honestly miss those Days.. U didnt even knew how the Menu looked so when u put the CD in ur Console it was just an all new Experience.. All the new Feautures where a suprise when i first saw them.. it was just so much more Fun..

I hate it but i cant ignore all those Videos that are on the internet before the Release.. i always watch some CAP Videos or some Gameplay Footage and when i have the Game i somehow know what to get.. Idk if its just me but i have absolutely no Problem seeing as few as possible until i have the Game ( im gonna buy it anyway.. even if the Cover says ''a terrible Joint'' and ''dont buy this ****!'') 2K is the one Game next to Fifa or GTA i will always Buy no matter what

the less i see the more suprised i am when i see it by myself.. (Y)

Should've known as soon as it wasn't much gameplay there'd be a lengthy discussion on marketing tactics lol. Anyways, let's get back to over analyzing small clips shall we?

The number one thing I'm surprised no one here has mentioned is the first clip against the Clippers is an older build. You can tell because the Clippers don't have that nautical alternate anymore and the crowd has on last years Clippers jerseys.

The next thing I'm surprised no one caught was the obvious new scans which include body scans. LeBron has been rescanned, along with Kevin Love, Draymond Green, and Timofey Mozgov. I don't think Kyrie, Shump and Bogut have been rescanned (though they don't really need it outside of a body scan).

JBtheGreat:

Are you still on the fence about the game? Like most on here, I am Dreamcast Era 2K player, so I plop my money down and wait for the goodies. I'm confident that I'm going to be getting a good product, if that confidence wanes for some reason then I'll revisit my decision, but 45 days isn't that long to wait, plus they'll be a slew of information within the next 6 weeks. As MIKEGSW has said repeatedly in this thread, this is about par for course. The only thing missing was the crazy German guys playing at Gamescom... Lol.

I pre-ordered my game last month, so I'm waiting for September 24th.
