NBA 2K12 - All 15 Legends Announced

[Raven Nation42]

Looking forward to putting alot of time in playing this mode, but would've like that the Barkley Suns were included. I'll settle with playing with him on 84-85 Sixers

Re: NBA 2K12 - All 15 Legends Announced

i wished they'd spent time to develop a entirely seperate 'classics' game. this kinda feels like they can't do much to elevate the regular game or what to slow it down, yet continue the annual release.

It's funny, I was just thinking about this. I wish they would make a downloadable game featuring only classic teams. Frankly I'm not too interested in bringing these classic teams into games with current teams aside from maybe the '95 Magic against the current Magic. I wish 2k would make a game with the NBA's greatest teams and rosters and make it available through PSN and XBL. The price to make the game wouldn't be as much as making the disk so this could be something for them to think about. Maybe charge $15 or $20 for it. I would definitely buy that.

OMFG This game is awesome BTW is it really 84-85 SIXERS vs. 84-85 BUCKS.. finally old 80's BUCKS team with Terry Cummings, Alton Lister, Sidney Moncrief, Creg Hodges. WOW this is amazing. here is another idea of Great teams

1974-75 GS. Warriors All about the players Al Attles head coach used all of his players everytime pure team effort..

1966-67 SIXERS The Team That Killed the CELTICS. just an idea i'm a retro guy

I've always wondered why sports games never gave this option....

I would pay $100 bucks for a NBA 2K game dedicated to only classic teams and players with guys running around in short short's, long songs and chuck taylors/converse shoes LOL!

Same thing with Madden.....

The late 80's to 1999 was the era in which i saw most of these players and the both sports were arguably more exciting IMO during that span.

Guys would play on the same teams for longer stretches of their career's together as opposed to today when players change teams like we change our underwear or want to go play with their buddies to form the so called dream team LOL!

Great news for all classic team lovers.

Great news for me as a classic team creator.

I only like playing with my superleague roster now. so 2k12 will make creating a roster of this kind less time consuming and more complete.

for 2k12 my goal is to get every franchise represented with either one of their most successfull teams or their most popular.

I have taken 7 weeks off work to get this done!!

cant wait.

OOOOK i have to say this, 2k have shot themselves in the foot overlooking the biggest element that made the jordan challenges so playable an most importantly RE-PLAYABLE!!! Simple really, the challenges!!!!

Im a huge mj fan, but without the actual challenges the mode would've just been an exhibtion mode, an basketball is at its best when they're challenges an goals to reach!! Going off for 63 in boston, or 69 in cleveland were the main reasons i loved the jordan challenges, my favourites probably being utah flu game, an madison square garden an droppin a double nickel on the knicks. Why??? Because they are two of my most memorable games i watched live, studied every move mj made an it felt amazing trying to replicate that zone he got into in those games.

Taking away that aspect has left me cold for this upcoming feature, i mean how hard would it have been to put them in this year, i hear the developers wanted to focus on rivalries..thats aload of b.s. in my opinion...

Alot of gamers wont know anything bout the Bill Russells, Wilts, an Big O's an im a huge baller yet i dont really know how good these guys really were, i know russell has gone down as one of if not the greatest defensive centre of all time, wilt its greatest scorer an Oscar Robertson the triple double machine, but i aint damn near old enuff to have seen these guys play, so how the hell are we gonna be able to get the most out of this mode without actual challenges to meet????

They are soooooooo many things they could've done this year an it seems to me they've taken there foot of the gas on this one.

As for omitting Charles Barkley, WTF???? The perfect challenge would've been the 93 finals, one of the best finals of all-time! Mj averaging 40 for the series an dan majerle goin nuts from 3point range in game 3 **** it the whole series...im guessing charles didnt want to be omitted an its a shame, the one saving grace i think is they've finally included th 95 magic, Pennnnnny Nyyyy lol an the 97-98 lakers but i still feel they missed a trick this year. i hope im wrong i really do!
OVER AN OUT!!

Barkely wasn't omitted. If they could've gotten him he would have been in the game.

Re: NBA 2K12 - All 15 Legends Announced

So do we have pretty much every premier player in the NBA from the mid-60s to today represented in the game, with the exception of a few?

Just off the top of my head, some of the top players not represented:

Charles Barkley
Reggie Miller
Elvin Hayes
Rick Barry
George Gervin
Paul Westphall
David Thompson
Bob McAdoo

85-86 Bulls are one of the unlockable teams so Ice Man is in the game again.
