    It was obviously a mistake to release a demo with a gamebreaking glitch. You can find a bunch of them on the marketplace (I just tried the Dante's Inferno demo and was hit with one on my first play) but the whole nature of NBA games and how seriously some take their brand loyalty meant people were already going into the demo looking for flaws. Now we have a bunch of writeups pointing to the one youtube video with a glitch that wasn't even in the final game.

    I don't know how this will all turn out (ideally with an Elite 12 game capable of pushing 2K next fall) but i'm always annoyed when stuff like one glitch (hardly an unprecedented one) gets blown up to degree it has.

    Their problem is it was worse than just a bad demo. The demo was just the end of the straw.

      There's no way they would've opted to lose millions of dollars over one glitch. It was WAY more than that, and way more than the video that did it. The Jesus Bynum video just encapsulated the overall reception to the game, and made the reaction more visual. And really that was only one part of the video - part of what made the video funny was his constant "WTF?" comments on what he was seeing occur w/the rebounding, movement, shooting, etc. He was legitimately trying to play the game - not like he was pausing it to point out issues. The Bynum moment just pushed it over the top

      WAY over the top lol
      HBO's "The Wire" should rank as one of the top 10 shows EVER on tv - period

      XBL gamertag: d0meBreaker22 (that's a zero)

      congrats Steelers, city of Pittsburgh, and Steeler Nation - SIX TIME WORLD CHAMPS
