Re: PC requirments?

Ok earlier I was able to get a copy of this game from the walmart down the street and it does indeed looks better than the one on my xbox or at least on par and I havent even messed around with the settings. Gonna have to get used to play on a monitor though..My monitor isn't HD either but it still look real good. Wow. Not laggy either

Are you talking about 2K11 or 2K12?

Re: PC requirments?

Blazin... you need to show proof that you legally own the game. You can either post the proof here, or shoot me a PM/email with a picture of the game disc and your OS username in the photo. Thanks

If you have the PC version of 2K12 and have been cleared by a mod, could you please tell us if it is a carbon copy of the xbox version, and maybe even post a screenshot from the game, thanks.

I meant 2k11 :o

I didnt even ask if they had 2k12 and I doubt they would of sold it to me because last yr they got it early, dude tried to sell it to me but the register or something wouldn't allow the sale. But if you want pictures of 2k11, I could send it lol

Re: PC requirments?

I have a Macbook pro and have heard there are ways of running windows on it in order to play PC games. Has anyone tried this with NBA 2K? Does it work? I'm thinking about making the switch to PC but don't want to buy a whole separate new computer if I can avoid it.

You can run windows 7 as a Virtual Machine in MacOS, but the performance is quite poor as far as I know, I'd be surprised if it'd be good enough to run a game like NBA 2k12, even on a powerful Mac.

Never done it myself though, so it may be workable, might be worth some research on a Mac forum?

Re: PC requirments?

Thanks for the help. That's kind of what I figured, but I'll keep researching.

..... And when WTF says A LOT he's not just slinging hyperbole




This card might be out of your price range but it man-handles 2k11 with no problems at 1080p, you don't need a card this powerful but it gives you the option of playing all the other big titles being released this holiday at a respectable level.

Using my Osk to type

Kind of an overkill IMHO, I'm running with a GTX 460 which is BEASTING the game, at full settings and it will only set you back around 170$

I also run Crysis2 maxed without any trouble. I think it is a more cost conscious alternative that will more than satisfy your needs.

You can install Boot Camp or Parallels. Boot Camp is free and I believe Parallels needs to be paid for, as of course a copy of Windows. Parallels runs within Mac OS X while Boot Camp partitions your HDD to install Windows and then you can boot to either OS X and Windows (I prefer this method).

Not sure what model Macbook Pro so you might wanna check that. I just checked some gaming videos on YT of the 2011 13" inch model and it looks like they can run games decently. The frame rate doesn't look great though. =p
