    About NBA 2K12 Legends Showcase:

    Legends Showcase will be available this holiday season for $9.99 via PlayStation Network for the PlayStation 3 and for 800 Microsoft Points via Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360.

    Legends Showcase creates a truly unique basketball experience for all fans, featuring a new, cell-shaded art style set in New York City’s iconic Time Square. This downloadable add-on enhances NBA 2K12 by providing a never-seen-before gaming experience, unlocking hours of additional gameplay and giving fans an all-new way to end the debate over who is the greatest basketball player of all time.

    Legends Showcase also features mini-games, such as 21 and H-O-R-S-E, along with other new features like the 2-on-2 Teammate Challenge and 3-on-3 Era Challenge. Gamers can also unlock current NBA players to create unique match-ups between legends and current stars. Finally, for the ultimate challenge, gamers can bring their My Player into the mix and battle the legends of the NBA to see how they stack up against the best ever.

    As an added bonus, Legends Showcase also includes Classic Quick Match, a new mode that is opened up in the main game allowing gamers to play online with the NBA’s Greatest teams in a regular simulation setting.

      Wow, they added alot of legends, with that being said, 2K better be giving us the option to have total control over the legend teams= adding players, editing players, removing players and putting them on different teams, etc.

              That sucks. At least give us the option of turning off the cell-shade.

                    Stop the madness pls, 2K should fix the gameplay first, many many issues there, plus the persistent online problems, otherwise DLC will go all Titanic. I hope they realize this on time.

                      Now I wanna see what current re-rated players will be in the mode. I believe Tim Duncan and Grant Hill were already confirmed, but who else? Kobe? Shaq(not a current player but already in the game)? KG? T-Mac? VC? Can't wait.

                        yeah this...I hate the look of it...i hope that cell shaded look is not on when playing the classic quick match online...

                        What about the PC version of this?

                          why the cell shading, it looks like nba street.
