It's time 2k addressed these legacy issues that have been plauging their franchise for years.

Please get off your high horse, I am sure you go into work and slack off most of the day, but to say that 2k slacked off for next gen is ridiculous, with a new engine and one of the few next gen releases where there is a huge graphical leap, the game is 43 gigs already this the first year, not to mention they released a current get version as well.

43gbs doesnt mean anything. they could have used poor compression or no compression for their cutscenes and textures. that has nothing to do with anything in the code.

Exactly one of my points, this is the first year there will be kinks to work out anyone expecting perfection is just delusional, just getting the game to play as it does as a huge undertaking, and the fact that they are about to release their third patch says something, even on articles about an achievement they reached all we get is negativity, does every thread about 2k have to be about the negatives, we all know the flaws there are dozens of thread about modes not working so they are aware stop beating a dead horse until the patch is released.

It definitely is common knowledge. Madden routinely sells over 6 million copies a year. 2K11 is the first basketball game to even get to the 5 million copy mark. Madden's sales has certainly dropped in recent years and 2K has gotten close, but globally, Madden outsells NBA games.

Only place where Madden might outsell 2k is here in the U.S

Wow, Madden has really steadily declined in sales since 2009.
