I personally feel as if this hasn't received as much recognition as it should from the mainstream gaming sites and media. Just a year ago when games like Battlefield and Sim city released with similar woes, it was all over multiple sites and you practically couldn't get away from the coverage. But as it seems that perhaps a smaller segment of gaming journalists are sports and sports gaming fans, that debacles like this get largely overlooked and go virtually unnoticed, except by those like us directly affected by it. If next months Call of Duty or Assassins Creed released with similar issues, it would be front and center on every site and discussed on every podcast. With NBA 2k being arguably the biggest sports franchise currently on the market and one of the most popular titles released yearly, why does it deserve less scrutiny and in turn, we as consumers, less respect?
