    The negativity surrounding...

    ...the few titbits of info/screen/pathetic IGN vids we have seen has been staggering to be honest.

    Last year 2K7, post patch and with the right sliders, was a great game, it truly was.

    This year we have Brinkmans word on just how much the gameplay has been revamped, loads of old code ripped out and replaced, the graphics are looking great again, if the gameplay catches up with the graphics we should be onto a winner here.

    I accept that 2K is very slow on the promo/PR front and might as well not have a marketing dept but, come on chaps, lets give this thing the proper chance it deserves.

    I honestly think when the demo drops shortly a lot of people will quickly change their tune.

    Heres to more vids, that show us the real core gameplay (i honestly dont take a blind bit of notice of what the jokers at IGN gave us) and heres to realising that 2K8 might be, shock horror, a damn fine game.

    Patience is a virtue people! :wink:

                with sliders was a turly great game LOL i wouldnt even know where to begin, just no it wasnt, I think 2k8 will be improved and will be decent but i dunno your post is what people were saying in 2k6 and 2k7, lets give the game a chance it deserves, dont get me wrong I will and im looking forward to the Demo, but in all honestly it doesnt deserve it, there just lucky me and people like me are as hardcore, cuz to the casual fan, 2k has been disapointing for 2 years hard, and most people wouldnt care to see what 2k8 has to offer. thats just my take on it, i dig the positive outlook but its just naah this is becoming a make or break year (despite BB's plan of 3 year revamped) the core of the three year plan should come out march 4th well see how it goes..

                              Yeah it was. You just didn't have the right sliders. The ones I used gave me a very realistic game.
