Nba 2k12 for the ps2 is horrible

[MG2PRime]

I believe the ps2 version deserves it's own thread because it's way downgraded compared to the console and pc versions. It's the same as nba 2k7 but worse. Actually nba 2k7 is better. Don't release nba 2k13 for the ps2 if you're going to do this.

I mean I know ps2 is dead, but why release a game you(2ksports staff) wouldn't play for own self if you didn't have a xbox 360 or ps3.

--**---**-No.1 Problems with Nba 2k on the ps2-**--**--
------Carmelo still has braids, you may can't see it during replays but you surely can during the gameplay.
------There is no my player mode, psp has my player mode why can't we.
------Every player has the same shot except core players like lebron, wade, kobe and etc. Other than that everyone has the same shot.
------Everyone does the same dunks. The dunks are the same for everyone. I mean I could literally do a 360 with Chris Paul.
-----Fix the graphics on the ps2 version, if the graphics cannot get not get any better which I know is a lie. Do not make it look like the wii or pc version.
-----In Nba 2k11, there was no Jordan Challenge mode and you couldn't edit or trade jordan in any kind of way.
------The CPU cannot dunk at all unless you manually fix their dunk tendencies then they would dunk.
-----Nba 2k has looked the same for ps2 ever since NBA 2K5 which has shown the effort 2K sports have put in the ps2 version
-----If 2k Sports are going to release something for ps2 it may as well add all the features, instead of nothing.
-----Nba 2k on the ps2 is boring, the only thing that is possibly fun is the playoffs and association, other than that it sucks.
------Mike Bibby is still bald.
------Nba 2k for ps2 has some signature play such as jumpshots or jumpers but other than that it's bull****.
------Wii version and PS2 version are virtually the same besides the graphics or features. Wii has features while the ps2 doesn't but I believe the ps2 graphics looks better than the wii's graphics. Again I say please don't try to edit the ps2 graphics because it may look like the wii's version which is ugly in my opinion.
------The Presentation is boring, e.g the menu sucks, no excitement in the menu.
------If 2k sports doesn't care for ps2 please don't release the same stuff over and over again. Even though us ps2 users cannot afford a xbox 360 or ps3 do not release something you wouldn't play if you didn't have an xbox 360 or ps3 of your own.
------Don't bring the online version back, ps2 is online is not needed in my opinion.
------If you guys can do so great with Grand Theft Auto what's with the basketball game.
------Big man should'nt be able to do dribble moves that a guard or forward could do.
------Add more signature play such as reactions, dribble moves, and jumpers.
------Make it worth something than just a roster update
------Names don't are not called when players score such as John Wall, Ty Lawson, and a few others.
-----Nene has no hair.
-----Amare Stoudemire has goggles but you cannot edit and add goggles.
-----It's completely too hard to make layups and I mean wide open ones! You have to move the layup sliders up just to make them.
-----Players go out of bounds to easily.
-----Players dunk and cannot dunk, Steve Nash cannot dunk wtf, Mike Conley etc.
-----If the wii has signature play why can't the ps2 have signature play, like crossovers, dunks, making people fall down, falling when you get fouled, handshaking, my player mode, jordan mode, Lebron James throwing powder, Kobe getting his chest bumped by Gasol, player reactions, the john wall dance and much more
------ Add more shoes, like the jordans, the newer nikes, and the newer adidas
------Every player in the game can do that same reverse dunk under the goal which is ultra trash because their head and shoulders go through the goal and backboard
-----Just make the game just like the other versions, I mean exactly a like, if the graphics cannot be like the xbox or ps3 that's okay just make the game a like every other way.

I do think it's wrong of 2k to release a ps2 version where there are no updates besides the roster.

I also think it's wrong of you to expect any significant update besides the roster for an obsolete gaming platform.

I don't get it why complain about a console that is past its prime.

I hate the ” I can't afford a console” argument too. You could literally have saved a dollar a week from 2005 to now and bought one. Instead of still buying video games for that PS2 why not sell it and all the games you have. There's so many little things your can do there's literally no excuse. I can understand in the first 2-3 years but nearly 7 years later bro really?

Buy a PS3 or 360.

You've been complaining about the PS2 version for like the past 4 years now. It's not getting any better. Rumors on the next generation of consoles have already surfaced, it'll only take a few years before they hit.

Again, it's not going to get better. Hate to be so blunt but seriously, buy a PS3 or 360 or stop buying the PS2 version and save yourself from the headache.

Locked.
