The Curious Case of Charles Barkley, and NBA 2K12
 

Most of us want Charles Barkley in NBA 2K12. Unfortunately, he wasn't announced as one of NBA 2K12's greatests. On Monday, we should find out why.

Quote:

Reading between the lines, it appeared that Barkley, like the Indiana Pacers' great Reggie Miller (polling No. 5 five on that vote), couldn't come to an agreement with 2K Sports over the use of his likeness, last year or this year. Whatever's going on, either he wants too much money, wants a cover or other promotional considerations 2K can't afford or grant.

Or he objects to second-billing under some other star from a cast of dozens highlighting this game. Or, conversely, one of Barkley's old rivals refuses to appear in a game with him. Or, maybe, he signed a Rumplestiltskenian deal with the makers of Barkley: Shut Up and Jam promising them his firstborn if he appeared in another game.

I think it's a mixture of all of the above.

I can see that coming from Barkley, but Miller too? Sadly, don't know much about him other than being one of the best shooters I've ever seen in my youth.

Haha, guess we'll have to wait until Monday then. :y7:

Someone seriously needs to ask Barkley about this during his Ask Charles/Chuck segments on TNT. I would love to hear what he has to say.

Lets hope he was in deep talks kinda like Greg Ostertag , Antoin Carr , Pat Riley, Mike Frotello and who ever handling Duckworth and Chuck Daliy trust. They are all hidden on the pc and 360 disc. Seems those were in the talk and then broke off. But the got on to the disc anyway. Maybe we can hope for this for Barkley and maybe others.
