Hard to sign someone who wants to be paid like Jordan but isn't. There's nothing more to the story.

Re: The Curious Case of Charles Barkley, and NBA 2K12

WrestlingGod mentioned this in another thread.

Good thing I read this official Insight. I would have thought Barkley is in the game because according to CBSSports, Barkley WILL be in the game.

... "Barkley and other top-50 players like Elgin Baylor, Shaquille O'Neal, Pete Maravich, Clyde Drexler, David Robinson, Earl Monroe and Walt Frazier will be available as players on the opposing teams facing off against the legends in a series of "NBA's Greatest" rivalry games. Barkley will appear as a member of Dr. J's 76ers and a young O'Neal will be on the 1994-1995 Orlando Magic..".

Could there be a Big announcement coming Monday! Maybe 2K is Teasing us and will reveal him. Just got to wait and see!

That link sent me to a PAGE NOT FOUND page with no info, did they pull it down or is the link bad?

Early in the article he actually complains about Barkley not being in. I checked the Kotaku article and there is no mention. We'll just wait for Monday, LOL.

Re: The Curious Case of Charles Barkley, and NBA 2K12

Either way who ever wrote the article screwed up.

A) Barkley is in and gave away a huge reveal that 2k is hiding for so reason (this seems unlikely to me but you never know)

or

B) Barkley isn't in and he is misleading a lot of potential consumers, remember this may be the only news article that some people read involving the "Greatest Mode" for 2k12.

Hopefully Monday will bring us an explanation for the confusion. Personally I don't think that CBS would the first choice for 2k to release such an announcement so I go with option B.

This is turrrible Ernie.... seriously, as long as we have some greats to mess around with - the novelty wears off and the real fun is to be had with the current players IMO...
