NBA 2K13 Still Has Generic Shoes!

[bigball12]

Is anyone else upset by this? They say every year that they focus on the shoes etc. and yet, they still have players who are strictly under one shoe brand's contract, with those awful generic shoes.

Um, not at all upset. not everyone wants Nike or Jordan's, etc.

Hardly the impact I was trying to make. It's a simple nuance that they have never seemed to get right, despite the fact that they say they make an effort to increase the realism every year.

generic shoes are more likely due to a particular players' shoe not yet determined for the 2012-13 season, the shoe not yet available on the market, brand agreements with 2kSports not yet finalized, or some other plausible explanation.

I have PC version so my only concern about new NBA 2K is gameplay only.

The heartbreak of not getting the shoes right is much more than I can take. I doubt I will play another sports game...

Agreed, but for some reason, they have never been able to add shoes to the game midseason.

This has been 1 area that Live has always done better in.
