If he isn't on the dream team then he probably just isn't in the game at all, or not necessarily?

Well, they said they couldn't reach a licensing deal with him so it would seem that he's not in the game altogether.

If he were indeed in the game though not on the Dream Team, someone from 2K would likely be on here to clarify that.

I honestly didn't expect much from this announcement when Ronnie mentioned that there will be no news about Online, Associations, Crew, etc...

Like someone mentioned earlier, how many times will you actually use these teams. I don't even like playing with the top teams in the game let alone one packed with Legends or All-Stars...

The thing is, thats just YOU

I dont think 2k ever sold so many copies before adding the legend teams and its been consecutive years, so they're satisfying alot of people and doing good business at the same time

Selling 5 million copies of 2k12 tells me all of this crew crap yall keep talking about didnt matter as much as you think it did

Like I said before, it probably cost too much money to put him on the dream team. I'm sure it cost more money to put players on the dream team than classic teams. What we can do is move Pippen form the classic Bull's team onto the dream team. That simple.

Wow some people a really picky....I think this great news. I don't play the PC mods. I play a Playstation 3. This is really exciting for me. Everyone (and from a majority of the posts I've read have this sentiment) seems to want to poo poo on this. I wasn't expecting this to be part of the package but I'm sure glad it is.

Would really be nice to see what other classic teams (if any) and players are added. That FIBA 2K12 mod I saw on youtube would be a great addition game. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself but dare I say maybe they can even include it Association....only time will tell. Great job 2K.

Not that simple, you don't even know if he will be on the Bulls team, as for now everything suggests that Pippen won't be in the game

Yeah makes a lot of sense. They couldn't reach a deal with the guy who filed for Chapter 11. The production budget of this game is essentially one of the biggest in the sports industry, pay the man what he wants and do it properly. Either get it 100% or don't do it at all!

Also, the fact that every one of these players was a shoe contracted player, and in the screenshot all except 3 are wearing those generic shoes is a joke!

Finally, if we can't use these teams online, this mode will be rendered useless for a lot of people, myself included.

Without Pip, its not the dream team.
It takes the "HUGE" out of the announcement.

Crossing my fingers hoping they can get a deal done before release.

Well then hex editors can just hex him onto the dream team I hope.

Is it just me or does Barkley seem a little....thin?

Have you seen the size of his body builder arms? LOL

On the other hand, many members like Malone, Robinson, Stockton, Ewing are rocking their older looks, these guys should look younger. Bird has his '84 mustache look too LOL

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

no offense to 2k, but this was the greatest basketball game ever made:



Glad Barkley's finally in 2k13, but it still won't match the greatness that was Shut Up and Jam!

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

lol so crew wasn't the #1 feature request wtf?

Seriously with all this crew stuff in EVERY 2K thread man. These are usually the same dudes popping up with their "it's just a freaking headband/shoe/arena" posts in other people's threads. Do you dudes realize how many people that play 2K don't even have internet or a stable enough connection to allow for online gaming? GTFOH with this crew stuff in every thread.

[KingRell]

This is dumb...this the Big News Ronnie going so crazy about on twitter lol....most the guys already in NBA 2k just added a few more....so we suppose to be happy we can play Dream Team against 2012 team? Can we play them online? O wait the servers won't work probably....2k so stuck on the past it was fun at first now its getting stale.... I really hope NBA Live is good which I doubt cause if it is I'm switching to live atleast for this year

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.

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

It is, but not "huge" news.

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.
