Is that because of the release of information being done the way it is or because there is literally no market competition?

The one thing I give 2K is I've always liked their videos. Except for how the Momentous trailer sometimes comes out AFTER the game releases...

But that's usually closer to the start of the NBA season, so...

2K is getting sales because of the name NBA2K, not because they have great marketing.

If that's the basis of your argument then I'll just leave it there

THANK YOU! It's essentially the Madden effect. If there were ANY significant comp, I'm willing to bet money they'd change their marketing up because they'd have to.

Yea marketing does some but it's not the main reason they are selling like hotcakes.

The nba popularity is at a all time high and we see that with the new deals and salary cap the players are getting.

Plus 2k doesn't have any competition so any nba gamer only have one choice.

The Friction trailer, X360 Achievements, additional screenshots with ratings, "leaked" details about possible My Player changes, released information about the controller layout, Willis Reed with the final disk and showing screenshots....

No one finds it "convenient" that all of this is happening for the past 3 days and after our yearly bootleg gameplay videos? The Marketing Team is doing exactly what they're getting paid for. Get you talking and speculating about the game while building hype.

The marketing team just lucky they got a good dev team behind them. I doubt this marketing strategy would work if they have a **** product.
