I was hoping for substance, not flash. Hopefully it will come at a later date.

This announcement does nothing for me, personally. I think Jay-Z is alright and the soundtrack is just that, alright. I don't see how Jay-Z could positively influence the game from a basketball perspective and I don't see why they'd want his input on presentation.

I would prefer hip-hop culture not be a focal point in the game. I want what I see on television, not what I would see at Rucker park or in and And-1 game. If the game is so geared towards it I'm just going to have to move on and stop playing 2K basketball.

We'll see...
