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.

Now this makes sense. Thanks!

Lol, whats the point. I'll buy it, go online to play someone and it will prob just drop out half way through anyway.

Sorry about that, I misunderstood. Thanks for the clarification.

Time for a little bit of a reach:

While we captured some fancier passes, dribble moves, and dunks to make the Legends stand out and differentiate the gameplay, it’s all still grounded in reality.

I assume they just added more street-like dunks. However, it'd have been pretty awesome if guys like '01 Vince Carter had signature dunks, yeah? Say the elbow dunk or reverse 360 cuff windmill?

Im going to still pass on this until I see some footage or after its released and someone can confirm that you can turn the cell-shade off. I just refuse to play any game with that kind of graphics

I'm baffled by the fact that a DLC Insight was released yet we were promised an Online Insight and that was never commented on. And personally, I'd rather pay for a patch that fixes all the bugs than this DLC. Nothing against the DLC, I just think priority should be making the game work as advertised before adding "extra" things to something that still has some major flaws.

You know, usually I'm the one that tries to set folks straight when they claim that work on presentation somehow holds back work on gameplay, AI, and other areas, because the team doing one is separate from the team doing the other-- but it really chaps me that they actually diverted resources to work on AI for the DLC 3 on 3 game when they should have been fixing the AI and mechanics in the main game for the patch. Argh.
