Unfortunately, NBA2k12's gameplay is (IMO) much worse than 2k13, so it's tough to enjoy those great rosters because of how frustrating it is to play.
Is it possible for roster makers to still make rosters where all of the regular teams are replaced with classic teams, or is that also going out as a result of this?
It sucks that we don't have any of those players they added in the DLC last year, or the retro jerseys. It's so stupid that they added some of those great 90s jerseys, but left out the matching home/away jersey(s).
