    I know I'm playing the devils advocate here...

    But isnt that really all on us?

    If one gets frustrated with the bits and pieces of info, disregard looking for it until closer to release. Along the lines of what you mentioned, you have the choice to know nothing.

    I myself dont look at anything until close to release as I know, as we all do, how 2K does things. So its not a problem. Especially considering that I know more than likely will buy the game. Lol

      Why 2k? Why do you continue to play with my emotions?

        It's also a reflection of how entitled people think they are.

          Lets be honest guys, 2k has never been a real leader when it comes to Marketing. They put out a good product that comes out in October, The demo comes in September, everything else in between just doesn't matter.. I would like to see a day where there are no more poster boys for the game ( I think that is just a waste of money IMO) Just go with a action shot like Lakers vs Bulls. Just promote game play thru the off season and people will be happy. I think withholding game play footage because the competition may steal your idea is way overrated..

              I don't know why people act like 2L owes us anything. Regardless of any announcements they make, we won't be able to play the game for another 3 months. We know it's going to be good, just be patient.

                "Big announcements" seem to be a large avenue to disappointment. If someone says "big news coming," you expect it to be big news . . . to you, but when it isn't, there's a lot of disappointment.

                I inoculate myself against disappointment using pessimism, and it's worked so far.

                  It would be cool if they were adding a lifestyle aspect to My Player. You could choose your car, house, and outfits you wear to games. That would be amazing.

                    ^ This ain't a bad Idea

                    But they should also add Techs that fine you 5000 dollars and fines for saying disrespectful things in press conferences, since they already have the money implemented.

                    P.S Don't quote this and say that it won't happen b/c Stern doesnt like a bad blablabla... This is how it would be ideally. Imagine if the NHL commissioner were in charge of the NBA, fights would be ALLOWED in 2k!

                      That's true. But this time around, unlike the last few years, it's 2K that pretends to be impatient (pretends...or maybe not?). I have no problem with no info until...(whenever they're ready, like in the past few years), but all this announcing a future announcement tells me that they feel some pressure (and that's not a bad thing).

                          I'd like to see the ability to be selected to represent the USA in the Olympics too

                          It would be awesome to see your My Player step up on the podium and get a gold medal

                            What if you could create a virtual girlfriend to sit courtside at all of your games to go along with what's above

                              I think the pressure is more from Take Two executives/shareholders than from competition. After years of losing profit or breaking even on 2k, they finally cashed in with 2k11 and now they want to make sure they keep milking the series for every cent it's worth. If I had to bet, I would say all this new marketing is more of a corporate push from Take Two (e.g. same marketing that pushes GTA, Max Payne, Bio Shock, Red Dead, etc) rather than a pure 2K initiative.

                              It's not a bad thing as many of those games were awesome, but with 2K it's still taking some getting used to - plus if you looks at the road that NBA Live has taken, 2K is following a similar path. It was around this chapter where Live's Marketing went into overdrive and around the same time the gameplay started going downhill. So that is why my antenna is up...
