This is ONLY a pre-order bonus.

If you're looking to purchase NBA 2K13, regular or Dynasty Edition, you can find any and all information here - http://2kgam.es/BuyNBA2K13

Hope this helps.

So you're saying that the All-Star Weekend pack is only for blind sheep that are willing to cash out blindly before any reviews even come out? Before they know if the product is worth their money?

Horrible move, 2K. Horrible, absolutely horrible.

Not only your PC fanbase gets no respect once again, but you're actually expecting console gamers to buy the game without reading a single full review of it. Or they don't get the content.

An All-Star Weekend pack is significant content, 2K. You can't just say "either buy it even if it turns out to be ****, or you're not getting this content ever".

Screw this.

Re: 2K Sports Announces NBA 2K13 Dynasty Edition

Most retailers only require a $5 deposit on pre-orders. This bonus, add-on content is at no extra cost as the $5 is placed towards NBA 2K13. Completely optional for those who want it.

And in theory, you could always pull the $5 if you wait for reviews for any product and are not satisfied.

I simply want to be clear to answer those who believe this will become DLC after launch. No such thing has been announced.

This is what I would have wanted in. A special edition. McFarlane makes nice statues/figures.

Man, that would have been awesome. In the black alternates and AJs 1 like his last game at the Garden in 1998.

Looks like 5 dollars worth of junk being sold for 40 bucks. Try focusing on getting the online play fixed and less about peddling game manuals. I'm done with this franchise for a couple of years...I've bought the last two releases and barely payed them.

Not to be negative, but the people who "peddle game manuals" aren't the ones who "fix online play". I really, really don't want to sound mean but I don't understand why people don't comprehend the notion that there are different departments that handle different things.

I'm a teacher, and that's like someone coming up to me and saying, "Try focusing on getting better exercises in PE and less on reading skills." Uuuuuh, I don't teach PE--that's a different department.

It's not all connected: this does not take away from online play, more legend teams doesn't take away from gameplay, etc.

Yes....!!!!!! Exactly what I need....!

Re: 2K Sports Announces NBA 2K13 Dynasty Edition

Steve, we here at OS are your biggest fans, but if 2k thinks that anybody in their right mind is going to pay 40 dollars extra for a fake basketball, a sticker, and a whole lot of other random stuff, I question their sanity.

Re: 2K Sports Announces NBA 2K13 Dynasty Edition

^^ Sanity or not, I'm sure some people will buy it. As long as those who buy it are happy...so be it.

Interesting edition...I do need some new earphones.

Re: 2K Sports Announces NBA 2K13 Dynasty Edition

2K: Big announcements to come this week!
Fans: Stop making announcements letting us know when to expect news! We don't want to be informed, thank you.

Any bit of information is good whether it's what "we" want to know more about or not; at least we're informed.

Blind sheep?

Yeah, perhaps his message was a little overboard but if I interpreted it correctly I think I agree with his general premise. I'm definitely bummed about the idea of All-Star Weekend being exclusive content only for those who pre-order. On that same hand, most of the comments from 2K folks have been, "at this time, All-Star Weekend is only available via pre-order." As a consumer I sort of wish for such a statement to be more definitive, as in, "All-Star Weekend Content will never be available via DLC. Pre-ordering the game will be the only means of acquiring this mode" or "Yes, we do have plans to eventually release All-Star Weekend separately. However, to acquire the mode immediately, one must pre-order."

On top of everything else, as someone who traditionally does not pre-order games, I'm curious as to whether the All-Star Weekend product will be available to most anyone who buys the game on release day. Last year, it was maintained that the '91 Warriors and '02 Kings would only be available via pre-order. However, codes were available to many who bought the game within its first shipment.

Re: 2K Sports Announces NBA 2K13 Dynasty Edition

Isn't that how it normally is though? I'm thinking of other companies that offer preorder bonuses but don't recall. Usually the caveat is you get the preorder content for "free", but it's usually offered as DLC at some point down the line whether for extra $$$ or as a time-delay release.
