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

[the croz 1027]

I guess this a nice add but agree with many posters that this isn't anything close to the hype they built. Last week's gameplay changes was more important than this. Once you play a couple of games using these teams what else does this add to the game? Most 2K players are playing myplayer, association/online association, team-up, and ranked matches. None of these modes will likely be impacted by this announcement. #overhyped

The Dream Team is a huge announcement. Seriously, what the hell were you guys expecting? They just added the greatest Olympic basketball team ever. How isnt that a big deal? Has any game other than USA Basketball had the Dream Team?

considering the game will probably still play unrealistically/glitchy/unsmooth as all ****, i could care less about the "dream team"

I would rather have the 93' Suns, Reggie Pacers.

Outside of whatever "mode" comes with this wannabe group (without Pippen this is incomplete, making me care less). I will only use this team to beat the mode, then I will never use them again.

That's great so I guess I cancel out your care because I DO care

so I guess we're back to square one

If you know the game is going to be "unrealistically/glitchy/unsmooth as all ****" why are you even considering buying the game? LOL. You havent seen or played a minute of 2k13.

There is no Dream Team without Scottie.....

This announcement >>>>> Jay-z announcement

Although without JayZ we wouldnt have Charles Barkley. Both are very big announcements.

Im not sure what some of you guys are expecting with these announcements...2k is the closest thing to having a complete basketball experience with *almost* everything being near perfection. I emphasize almost since somethings cant be updated due to licencing issues or just not able to do it on this gen of consoles.

Also these announcements hit home to the casual fan more so than the hardcore fan. An improved passing system for example might not mean anything to the casual fan but means everything to us, where as the Jay Z and Dream Team means the world to them and are so so to us.

Its not like 2k has a terrible game base and then adding fluff. They have a solid to great base and are improving it year after year.

Why no Pippen?

They had to negotiate with him separately and they werent able to reach a deal. Same reason why Barkley wasnt in last year's game.

Does this mean there will be no Bulls team? And if that's the case, is it safe to say there will also be no Legend teams this year?

So great we have barkley, but not on Suns?http://kotaku.com/5934875/michael-jo...ts-in-nba-2k13

[KingRell]

And the extreme complaining has commenced...

This announcement is still very cool, I think it is just the topper on the FIBA cake. There has to be more to this

Nothing extreme about my comment

Yea, I know "you PC gamers have had the Dream team and every team that has ever played basketball on your HDD, so quit rubbing it in. But, for us console guys, this is awesome.

It's gonna be really cool having the authentic uniforms and Sir Charles. I play with some roster created by rksoundz with a created Dream Team and the 2012 team, and it's pretty well done. But, having the real threads for each team will be so nice.

I wonder if we get the option to play in London or Barcelona, and if this finally means we can play with the Suns.

Meh, about Pippen. He wasn't a huge focus on The Dream Team, so it won't bother me. As long as he is still on the Bulls.

I didn't hear there was going to be an announcement until 10am this morning. How much hype could they have possibly built since I last signed on at 4pm yesterday? I'm supposing the hype consisted of one person saying a huge announcement was coming, yes?

Also, I object to the idea that "Most 2K players are playing myplayer, association/online association, team-up, and ranked matches" if it was intended to suggest folks will not care about this inclusion. That is not the case with most of the people I know who play 2K. I mean, many of them play other modes, but to suggest that's all they care about is far-fetched and off base (if that was in fact what you were suggesting). I think polls you see given on 2K Facebook sites or where ever else can often be misleading in terms of what the people really want. A certain crowd will venture onto Facebook and vote in polls. I'd venture to say the vast majority of 2K gamers will not make their voices heard on such social media outlets, particularly the over 17 crowd, who'd probably make up a significant portion of those who value features including classic players, teams, or modes.

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...

Why would 2k take out all of the legends teams? They were a huge success. Thousands of 2k basketball fans would be very dissapointed and everyone would hate 2k and Ronnie2k twitter account would be filled with negative posts and alot of players would cancel their pre-order. The classic teams are here to stay. They already have Scottie on the classic bulls team. They can't remove him from it. I'm sure Scottie Pippen's likeness will still be used in the classic bulls team, but not the dream team. Maybe 2k could let us make transactions to the dream team and then we could have Pippen on the dream team. I hope.
