Notice that most all of those games were made by EA and the couple done by 2K were their Basketball titles, which are their strength.

Any forum will lock such threads that are nothing but out of control. 2KHockey.net is NOT directly linked to 2K with the exception of having a couple of former regulars that are now developers with VC. That is it. They are simply a forum for 2K Hockey fans to go and talk about the games. They have NO responsibilty or obligation to keep such "bash" threads open.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List
 

To quote WWTC in the 2khockey forums
The conclusion I draw from that is that for a customer it will be not feasible to support 2k's games on the PS3 anymore, as the PS3 customers are no feasible target for 2k.
All the issues with Sony asside, as a software developer you have to have an obligation to your customers, even if they are fewer in numbers. If you think about Customer Lifetime Value, such a decision will put you way behind your competition and I personally don't think that this will be a positive profit devestment.
Most of the next - gen 2k buyers, like me, have been loyal customers even in times, when the game, and the support was lacking. 2k promised us that 2k10 would turn things around on the behalf of support but apparently, it is more feasible to upset 5-6k loyal customers than to try anything to keep the few people that are still buying their product despite the lack of marketing efforts.
Even putting personal feelings aside, this year has been a disaster on the marketing side and such a decision is making things even worse. 2k did a good job destroying CLV over the last 2 years. Congratulations!

Its Savoie you're talking about, are you really all that suprised? He's flipped flopped almost as much as Joker the past year.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List
 

That's because everyone that mods that site is a complete joke. Venom is allowed to break the rules consistently without reprimand, and clowns like Pengman will close/lock any thread that is too anti-2k.

Sugar coat this anyway you like, the PS3 version is getting hosed. Sony is not to blame...that's the easy way out. 2k is choosing not to extend the money and/or resources to get this done. It is their choice, and Ps3 owners are the ones to suffer. But next year I will have a choice, and that choice will be to not purchase their unsupported game. And I will certainly encourage others to do the same.

It's a real shame to see how far this series has fallen, both in quality and in the post-release support.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List
 

Total B.S. It's the easy way out to blame Sony, but WWTC is just a company puppet towing the company line. Bottom line is 2k decided to not support the Ps3 yet again --- more than likely due to financial reasons. This all cycles back to losing their customer base due to subpar releases and poor marketing.

If they aren't going to support the game, don't release it for that system.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List
 

No, but the whole premise that Waz founded that site on was to avoid petty squabbles like those on Thunderpuck. And that is exasctly what that site has become...Venom is allowed to do whatever he likes, and the mods are horribly biased.

Nothing worse than a flip flopper. It really bugs me :signball: when someone is willing to change their opinion when presented with new information. People should really stick to their guns once they form an opinion. Basic loyalty.
