Interesting article. I just took 2K back to Best Buy Saturday. I simply told them "It doesn't work". It's ridiculous for this game to be in this state for so long. Fortunately for me they didn't have another copy of 2K in the store. Only 3 copies of Live. I told the guy don't even bother trying to look for another 2K. I'll take the LIve.
So I turned that game in, got Live and 20 bucks back (Live was on sale for 39.99). Honestly, I've been having more fun with Live also. 2K felt so scripted to me that I really never finished games because I can see "the switch flip" in 2K for when the script was kicking in. I don't feel any of that with Live. I'm really enjoying it. Just wish they can get the polish on it like 2K has and fix a few other issues.
