Hopefully we can edit and assign him to the suns

Dang, I feel for 2k trying to please everyone. There are so many type of fans who see what's important differently. I can just imagine if they made announcement about something else and then fans would complain about that.
They should have announced the Brooklyn Nets jerseys and their arena, watch the uproar. There are always going to be that fan you can please at all.

Yeah I'm curious about this as well....

Was hoping they added Wookie Walton's team for 2k13


Usually they would've announced it by now...so I'm guessing that there are no legendary teams this year...

I will have an internal meltdown if classic teams were not included. My educated guess would be we haven't heard about classic teams yet this year because there may not be a mode entirely devoted to them. It might be an NHL 2K5 situation where many classic teams are available but they're sort of under the radar. That's my hope anyway.

Pretty cool. I mean, it's not something I would ever use, but I can see the appeal.

Not really the point though is it?

2k package an announcement as "huge" but fail to provide everything that is a part of that team. You can hardly call an incomplete team a "huge" announcement. 2k should really aim to provide something that doesnt require editing. So people can play the game. While that's an impossible task, it kind of feels like there not even trying anymore, cause they just assume someone will edit it in.

I've always criticised people who complain about shoes, accesories and stuff not being in, cause those are fluid things that change IRL all the time. I've been a big 2k defender. But to provide a team, call it a huge feature, but then say "although it's not actually the full team" is a big let down to the community.

^^^^THIS. I was super excited until I found out Pippen wasn't in. In 2k12, we can kind of create the dream team with no Barkely. In 2k13, we have the dream team with no Pippen. Seriously, what's the difference? Authentic jerseys, players' ages and some minor yet inaccurate tweaks of the ratings? SMH..
I can't wait to try out their physics engine and new control systems but this isn't even an announcement to me since the team is incomplete AGAIN.

This is just so confusing. Jay Z was able to get Barkley in the game, the guy that's refused forever, but he couldn't get Pippen to come back? And Barkley might not even be on the Suns?

People clamor for the Dream Team, they get it and now they all complain?

Great feature, won't use it much other then fooling around with a friend but cool.

This is good news, not really a bombshell announcement but it's better than the Jay Z announcement which had a dragged on build up.

At this point legends doesn't really blow my mind, 2k12 gave me more than enough already so this is just icing on the cake.

Wow. This site couldnt be more jaded. Jeez. Its a huge announcement. People were bitching about Barkley last year and they got him this year.

Who am I going to play these Dream Teams against? Each other? Okay that's fun for one game... then what?

When there are "huge announcements" people want something substantial, not gimmicks meant to sell more copies of the game.

The difference? Presentation directly focused on the dream team, commentary that discusses the dream team, authentic jerseys. Oh and also the fact that we have no ****ing idea what mode they are going to be in.

There could be an olympic mode, a Fiba mode, a enhanced Legendary team mode....or there could be nothing. Its incomplete because we dont have all the information.

Re: NBA 2K13 Features 92 Dream Team & 2012 Olympic Team

Come on man, Pippen is not the main cog for the Dream Team... you are over exxaggerating now

Isn't that a bit hypocritical of you? To tell me I'm over-exaggerating about something I value as opposed to something you value? (re: Previous '92 Dream Team vs. Jay-Z announcement post)

Just because I feel a full '92 Dream Team would have been better, doesn't mean I'm not happy about the announcement.

I know Pippen wasn't the main "cog" as you put it. I'm just saying a full team is better than a team with one player missing regardless of his "legend status" when it comes to MJ, Barkley, Robinson, Bird, etc.

Last year, they announced the classic teams on August 19. Today is August 15. So maybe they will announce them next week.

Re: NBA 2K13 Features 92 Dream Team (With Barkley, No Pippen) & 2012 Olympic Team

Well I can't say that I'm ecstatic, they already had these teams on 2k share



I was hoping it would be some revolutionary gamplay mechanic

This tweet has me more hyped than this announcement.
