NBA 2K12 preview: Going up against the NBA's greatest
NBA 2K11 was damn good, but it wasn't perfect. How do you remind yourself of that fact when you're following up your franchise's most successful entry to date? If you're 2K, your approach is simple: instead of focusing on one super star, you cram as many as you can in there. NBA 2K12 boasts a ...
Meet the 'NBA's Greatest' in this NBA 2K12 trailer
And by "meet" we mean "get wicked dunked on by." NBA 2K12's "NBA's Greatest" mode is bringing history's greatest b-ballers out of retirement for one last virtual game, and judging by this latest trailer, they're going to be styling all over us. ...
NBA 2K12 adds Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Dr. J to the roster in its 'NBA's Greatest' mode
Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird aren't the only classic ballers hitting the virtual hardwood in NBA 2K12 on October 4. 2K Games has confirmed that Julius Erving (Dr. J) and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar will also be in the game. Personally, we've got our fingers crossed for a mini-game where ...
NBA 2K12 hits the hardwood on October 4, taps Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird for the cover
The inclusion of Jordan in NBA 2K11 was a big deal, so 2K Sports is bringing him back. Jumpman 23 will grace the cover of NBA 2K12 in a stylized piece of art, created by Adam Larson of Adam&Co. If you're looking for a little variety when it comes to basketball players on your game shelf, ...
2K Sports on NBA Elite: We 'don't care' if EA Sports has a basketball game
For the past two years, EA has been without a basketball title. EA CEO John Riccitiello decided to pull NBA Elite 11 at the last minute -- and for good reason -- and in 2012, all signs are pointing to the absence of an EA title again. Considering NBA 2K11 was 2K Sports' most successful entry to ...
NBA 2K12 featuring PlayStation Move is a slam junk
NBA 2K12 will feature unique Move functionality on the PS3, it was revealed during Sony's E3 2011 press conference. B-ballers move around the court on their own, and using the Move controller (we didn't see a Nav controller in use), the player can point at anybody on their squad and control them. ...
NBA extends multi-year licensing agreements with 2K and EA Sports
Six years ago, the NBA counted five major game makers -- including Sony, Midway and Atari -- in its non-exclusive circle of licensees. That number has since dwindled to two, as the league today re-upped its multi-year licensing agreements with its longstanding (and still standing) video game ...
2K Sports distances itself from sexy Serena Williams Top Spin 4 ad
An advertisement for Top Spin 4 has made its way onto the internet, but it's not what one would call "official." Featuring Serena Williams, the ad was definitely made with 2K Sports' money and effort. We've attempted to get an official statement from 2K Sports, but the company doesn't appear to ...
Pro wrestler pitches first known perfect MLB 2K11 game, wins nothing
After the break, you can watch the last three outs of a perfect game pitched in MLB 2K11 by a gamer named Michael Manna, who also happens to be known as professional wrestler Stevie Richards. Manna posted the video on YouTube hoping to win 2K Sports' $1 million perfect game contest, but he's been ...
MLB 2K11 trailer exposes Halladay's rubber catcher fetish
Some might find the latest trailer for MLB 2K11's million-dollar perfect game challenge to be "cute." We don't agree, seeing as how it focuses mostly on Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay, known robot-monster who sustains himself only on the tears and crushed hopes of loveable, Ohio-based ball clubs. ...
