What happens if you DON'T pre-order NBA 2k13?

Nah. ASW is a good incentive. A demo a month before the game is released is a really boring incentive.

I guess you didn't get the point. ASW should be part of the game for anyone buying it at any time. Not pre purchase incentive.

I didn't understand that's what you were getting at but I totally agree. It should.

I just thought that a demo 1 month a head of time was not an as good incentive as ASW pack.

I'll try my luck at a GameStop. Chances are the sales-dude doesn't have a clue though...

I preodered but I doubt I'll use the code. May slap it on Ebay to knock a few bucks off the price.

When I pre ordered the guy there didn't know if I meant live or 2k, and he had no information about asw at all.
That was three weeks ago. Went back this weekend and they had gotten confirmation asw would come with the pre order.

Shows you how much they know about bball video games in Sweden.

I remember once upon a time when 2k games used to already have all star weekend for free! now we have to pre-order for it? lmao please, 2k has disappointed me and has just jumped on the EA bandwagon, I was going to pre-order it anyway, now I'm having second thoughts.

The unfortunate evolution of gaming my friend.

DLC/pre-order bonuses bring in millions of additional dollars, and as much as the sheer greed of it all sucks, i can't say i blame 2k for jumping on the bandwagon. They are after all, running a business.
