This is great...i hope that means 2K11 is about to wow us this year.

Don't get me wrong, I love MJ as much as the next guy, but this isn't NBA 1.9K96. There are plenty of legit stars in the game right now, and I'd like to see one of them represented on the cover.

Your right however getting him back into the virtual world of hoops eclipse's them hands down.

Matt is going to have a field day with this..... nice job 2K. Now make sure the gameplay is legendary as well

# 96 Shakedowncapo @ 06/03/10 03:38 AM

Agreed...MJ is my favorite basketball player of all time, yet it's 2010 not the 90's MJ had his time to shine let other players have theirs....I could care less who is on the cover of the game the case doesn't see the light of day once i take the disc out of it

I love Kobe as much as the next guy but this post is ridiculous.

Yeah, I made a comment similar to the quote said above^. It's only fair that current players should be acknowledged of the game. But then again, it's Jordan

. What could you do?
I even suggested that 2k can have Jordan on the cover of a Special Edition Cover and a current player on the Original Version. I say that is more reasonable.
