NBA 2K13: Pros and Cons Thus Far

[MMChrisS]

Since its debut on Spike TV and particularly over the last 2 weeks, much has been revealed about NBA 2K13. As a fan of the franchise, I found some of these revelations exciting and others not so much. Here are some of my NBA 2k13 pros and cons based on what we have seen and heard to this point.

i still havent figured out why they just dont adopt the passing system from CH2k8...why leave anything to chance based on the AI? If i wanted to throw a bounce pass, there was a button for that...a chest pass?? there was a button for that...

I haven't read or heard about NBA 2K in a very long time. This is the first article I found. I'm very happy to hear about the inclusion of SIr Charles, finally he's in the game. But why limit him just on the Dream Team? And why do they took out Scottie Pippen? Damn what is this 2K? Is this a "You win some, you lose some" issue or something?

Its been said that Scottie was asking for way too much money this year around.

According to rumors, Barkley only gave 2K permission to use his likeness for the Dream Team and Pippen and 2K couldn't come to terms on a deal. Sadly, money makes the world go round.

The warm-ups during pre-tip intros was a bug in the Gamescon demo. It's already fixed.

I definitely agree about the presentation. To me its ugly, they should shoot for a more traditional network broadcast, it looks too nba jam-ish

I'm glad it was just a bug.
Also, great read.
A pro of mine is the Soundtrack. One of the things I look for in games is the soundtrack. I think this year's selection is great!

Yeah it sucks, but it seems like their hands were tied with that one. I can only hope Scottie has a change of heart before launch.

They did, there are manual bounce passes this year.
