    Re: Official "Bring Back Halftime Show" Thread

    As I and others have said before, why have a pre game and not a halftime show? It just doesn't make sense and is not very 2k like.

          I would prefer Damon Bruce and the halftime show over some half-baked pregame show any day. Shaq and Ernie is cool but I would of preferred the whole crew.

          The halftime show added immersion and a story about the game. It gave me a second to think about my halftime adjustments etc. The pregame stuff will get tiring really quickly. You can only watch the pregame stuff for so long before it gets old. 2k dropped the ball on that. Where is the user testing or QA?

            You could say the same about the halftime show.

              The difference is that there is a period of time where the game needs to load.. a pregame show makes that more interesting instead of the stupid tunnel from 2K14.

              They know you can't button through that so put one of the coolest things there...

              Makes more sense than wasting shaq and ernie on halftime that most ppl dont watch (according to their stats).. Both would be great but maybe next year.

                Yeah this is the only sports game I actually watch the halftime sometimes, its the animations the way the players move that make it so watchable to me, a thing of beauty. Not a deal breaker for me, as long as the have end of game highlights, thats what I liked the most.

                  5 star thread. Bring back the halftime show.

                  No halftime show = (the real) break(ing of) the internet.

                  Halftime "Show" @6:23 - 6:48.
                  Nothing of substance. No commentary, no scores from around the league.

                    I'm really trying not to be to critical, because I am excited to play NBA2K15 and I have always loved and supported 2Ksports but.... that halftime show in NBA2K15 is pitiful, you would think we were all still playing Sega Genesis and N64 basketball games looking at that.

                      Never thought I'd see the day this topic would have had to been made

                      It should be back next year, but I can see why the reason they stated halftime was removed is receiving flack

                        My buddy and I play head-to-head 12 minute quarters. We love the break that the half-time show provides. We can get up, walk around, and still enjoy the Sprint Halftime Show, brought to you by Sprint in association with Sprint. The Halftime report they have now is dreadful. It looks like they gave it to a rookie programmer. I thought bringing in Shaq and Ernie meant an awesome Halftime Show, and that got me really excited. When there are multiple examples of last gen and 2 gens ago with far superior Halftime Shows, it makes you wonder why they aren't putting any real effort there at all. Instead we have various NBA players sounding like robots in another lame RPG they're shoving at us?

                        I always felt like sports games should be built from the court/field/rink/pitch/diamond outward. Once the experience of playing a game is as immersive as possible, then do lame things like having James Harden drone on about defense in MyCareer. Bring back a real Halftime, 2k!

                          i can understand there were some circumstances that led to it's removal for now. but i'm expecting them to take the time to bring it back in a big way and really flesh it out with shaq and ernie next year. i really want nfl 2k5 style franchise mode recap shows too. it's been 10 years, i think advances should of been made by now, not lost. keeping my fingers crossed for next year.

                            I'll add my name to the list of people that wish for the halftime show to come back.

                            But I do think it was taken out this year due to multiple situations. Damon Bruce being Damon Bruce. And the fact they might be giving us more TNT like presentation next year. The halftime show pics as is are very TNT like. So hopefully with the implementation of custom soundtracks next year and Charles and Kenny we can get a TV broadcast presentation.

                              Here are my thoughts. I don't mind that they took it away, because honestly I did skip it, however I want them to bring it back, but do it RIGHT. show us highlights of other games, and scores in progress of those games. I don't want to see hightlights only of my game, the one I JUST played. that's boring in my opinion. so YES I am for a halftime, but a cool improved one, one like nfl 2k5, but done to the xtreme. It can be done, and some company will do it eventually, hoping 2k is that company.

                                I think Around the League stuff is the key. This year I'm gonna pretend like watching League Pass stats in breaks and half-time.
