It's $0.00 if you don't buy it
Anyway, I won't kill the messenger here...the demo/ announcement was most likely out of LD2k's hands
His title is right under his username fellas
Very disappointed though

I'm not too shocked there wasn't a demo released today, but shocked there won't be a demo at all. I love the work they've done on their previous releases and this year's release is looking great from the vids and hands-on impressions we've gotten so I was a day one purchase regardless - they didn't need to prove anything to me. But still very surprised there will be no demo at all.

If you were waiting to be swayed off the fence by the demo, you're probably not much of a videogame basketball player to begin with. As someone said in an earlier post, the game comes out in a week, less than that if you can find a mom and pop store in the Bronx! lol!

Next Gen should be Off The Meat Rack! Who cares what happens current gen.
How many resources could it possibly take to whip up a demo? Come on.

The thing is, even if 2k14 is an improvement, not putting out a demo gives the impression that they do not want people to get there hands on it and crucify the game a week before release.
Probably not gonna buy the game, and I'll see what EA has to offer with their game as well.
From the gameplay videos I've seen, the game looks like 2k13 with more collisions and a consistent blocking system. I can skip 2k14 and I wouldn't be missing much

Booo.
Ok, I'm not going to jump on the "these devs are lazy" train because I'm sure that isn't true. I have faith that the developers have been working their butts off and are good people. I have been an avid 2k basketball player for the last 5 (6?) years, and 2k did not earn my money this year. I won't be purchasing this on October 1st. I'll wait until it goes on sale in some used game bin or is available cheap on xbox live.
In my opinion last years game was only OK. We all know the list of cheeses that made the game mostly unbearable online, and the innovations to association and my career were only decent. Nothing ground breaking. This was the first year I didn't complete a season with my player. In NBA2k12 I completed 5 full seasons - one of which was 82 games with 12 min quarters (just to give a reference to how much I played the game). The introduction of VC and failure to address an obvious exploit made my career and myteam seem trivial. So to me, 2k can't just coast on last year.
The ONLY selling point for this game was "it feels so good" right LD? Except here's the thing... we can't feel it if there is no demo. And personally, I don't believe ANYTHING in the developer insight videos. For a laugh, go back and rewatch some of them from NBA2k12 - especially the video on defense. "This year I want to be the on ball defender." Ha... until you play the game and your online opponent just jumps side to side until they shoot a three with 80% success. Either that or turbo into the point for an UNBLOCKABLE dunk. If you don't give us a demo we can't see the improvements that you have made.
Again, I'm not going to blame the devs. I'm sure they work really hard. I just think developing current and next gen games concurrently is going to prove to have been a terrible business decision. LD2k, I'm sorry, but "there's this thing called next gen" (as he has used as an excuse in nearly all interviews) is not a valid excuse for poor marketing and not giving consumers (well at least me) what they want.

. If people don't care about current gen why are they in threads discussing the current gen demo?
Doesn't seem like a legit reason u can't put a demo out. I've seen a stripped dwn version of the game being played earlier in the summer I believe I dnt kno y they wud do this

no big deal. i'm still getting the game, and i'm committed to staying on current gen for at least a year, so next gen doesn't affect me.
