    Well it benefits them money wise too. The people that haven't played get a free trial which might entice people who never tried it to buy the game if they like it

      Sure it does - everything they do is to sell. The point is we as fans of the game - we already plan to buy it. It's like an extra gift for us. So we should just be grateful for that instead of demanding more. And let's be honest - 2k gets plenty of money each year. They hardly need to make this to advertise I'd say. I'd say we crave a game more than they crave money. If they did they could probably retire right now - they would be more than fine - we would be screwed without a basketball game lol.

        I'm sure it's more for the fans... Just probably not just entirely for us. I but I'm happy. Haven't had a demo since 2k who knows when

            The fact that you think they're doing this out of the kindness of their hearts is comical. 2K is a business out to make money, not some charity.
            This. The whole "2k team is teflon"mentality gotta go. Its annoying at this point.

              ??? Next gen 2K has been the worse period of 2K history. Either you're joking or you never played the first 13 games...I still love it but this series took a tragic nosedive when it left Xbox 360/PS3

                Did you even read what i replied to?. Where did i say next gen is better than last gen... . And that's your opinion on which gen is better - not law lol. So the joking and never played comment is quite egotistic to add IMO.

                      But you don't need to pay for the prelude so we aren't exactly customers.

                      Any way I understand the logic behind this. If you could play multiple times then everyone would end up as the number 1 draft pick, not exactly realistic. Players in the nba don't get to decide "I wasn't a lottery pick so I'm going back and doing my whole college career over."

                      I do hope there is some other option to continue playing. Even if it is just a shoot around.

                        except you can just do that when the full game comes out.

Of course they are about money - that doesn't take away the improvements the game makes. If you don't think it's good enough don't buy it. Eitherway releasing a demo was indeed kind and we should be thankful. I don't see where your logic or intent was with that comment. Point is let's just enjoy what they give us as an extra instead of complaining. It's free. They hardly ever release demos.

                          Yeah, obviously 2K doesn't need to release a demo to make money. The point is to make more money. 2K didn't need to release a deluxe and super deluxe edition of the game to make money. Were they being kind for that too?

                          And I have no problem with The Prelude so I'm not sure where the "If you don't think it's good enough don't buy it" comment comes from. I love the idea of The Prelude and I can't wait for it to come out on Friday. I don't think it's them "being kind" though, lol.

                            It's not them being nice but it's still cool to get the hands on the game a few days before release. They're still taking a risk with this, you don't want some random *** bug popping up and be all over youtube within a few hours.

                                Personally as I said before. They already have a huge fan base who buys every year. I don't see how this is more for money than being generous. Last time they released a public demo I believe was last gen. Which is crazy. But it's fine you have your opinion as do I. Not that big a deal really.
