02:40 PM - April 17, 2013 by Steve_OS

Let us all congratulate Leftos as he has officially taken a position at 2K Sports on the NBA 2K development team. As most of you are aware, he is well known for his work at NLSC. Creating all sorts of different mods for the NBA 2K series over there and also offering a helping hand over here. He will truly be a huge addition to the team.

Smart move by 2k to hire someone whom the community respects and that has a great rep with the gamers. Very smart move on their part. Hopefully they won't try to restrict/hamstrung Leftos and just allow him to work his magic.

Shouldn't he get a magenta name for being a developer? Or is it a bit too soon?

# 67 Leftos @ 04/19/13 06:44 PM

I wouldn't rush it, aiaron32. I haven't gotten in the US yet as I need to get a work VISA first, but we're working on it. The if is done, the when is to be determined, but shouldn't be too long.

Can you PLEASE Voice for Support for 2k to BRING BACK a College Basketball Game!!!!!!!!! I REALLY think the support would be there for a College Game, it has been OVER 5 years and CH2k8 is still been played ALONG with Rosters STILL being updated. If they could bring a College oops game to go ALONG with a NBA Game, Basketball Options would be UNLIMITED for Basketball Gaming.

LOL It's not for lack of effort. I bring it up every time it's applicable. Its to the point where they are like "Yes Czar we know bring back college hoops" LOL

I don't know if that game will ever come back. I have pitched a downloadable tournament version with, A re-release of 2k8 on current gen systems with a graphical upgrade They haven't budged yet.

Congrats Leftos! You've put in damn good work and you deserve this!

# 71 turty11 @ 04/21/13 03:40 PM

there is no new college hoops game because it would requir them to put in more effort, and the market just isn't that big

# 72 LakersForLife @ 04/21/13 06:04 PM

They need a license to do College Games duh

# 73 fearwhatnow @ 04/22/13 05:46 AM

Well done Lefteri! Amazing news! So, you're leaving Greece soon?

# 74 Leftos @ 04/22/13 08:58 AM

As soon as I get my work visa, yes.

# 75 Goffs @ 04/22/13 10:24 AM

Man...we have yet to get the roster updates on the PC version...I hope once you get there you have a voice on getting the PC aligned with the console updates....

I've pretty much given up on the patch....

# 76 GudStuffzz @ 04/22/13 03:51 PM

Congrats, man.

Now we just need a new 2k insider!!!

# 77 jmarcguy @ 04/22/13 07:36 PM

Congratulations Leftos!! You're an intelligent & very passionate gamer & I know you'll provide a valuable voice for the sim community. You deserve the job just for getting up so early to call into Da Czar's podcast!!!! Best wishes my friend!
