That's exactly what I meant.

I guess I'm buying this then lol. I just want the freedom to use legends however and whenever I want. This lock-out is killing me inside

We know the issue with Barkley and Miller, but when will we hear something about Iverson? I'm pretty sure he's not asking for anything near what Barkley and Miller are wanting (or not wanting).

For some reason, I scrolled through the list of additional legends to get a peak at which version of the newer players were going to be included. It's going to be pretty cool to see players from teams rocking jerseys we've yet to see in 2K to this point ('93 Suns, '94 Nets, '02 Bucks, etc.). I'm going to enjoy that. However, my heart breaks knowing these players and uniforms will not be available in the actual game.

Knowing absolutely nothing about video game art development, I at least hope the hard work they put in on the jerseys for DLC can serve as a great starter for including all those jerseys as retros in 2K13.

Will people from other countries be able to buy the DLC? Having a PSN account and internet connection is it all that it takes?

This is all based on assumption and has been covered in other threads. Iverson left to play oversea's but did not retire. For him to return to the NBA he would also have to rejoin the players union(that doesn't really exist at this point) much like rookies who are not yet official part of the union. Since none of this occurred prior to 2k's release and they won't update rosters until/if there is a NBA season Iverson is in the same boat as the rookies. No chance he's in the game until the lockout ends. He's not retired so he can't be a "legend" and he isn't a current NBA player(wasn't last year either) so 2k did not include him on the default roster. If memory serves me he was on the default roster in 2k11 but was removed in later updates once it became clear that he wouldn't be in the league for the season.

Don't take this as "I don't A.I. in the game" because I do, but I can understand why he's not included at this point.
