I don't believe whether 2K is a monopoly or not is the issue. Rather, when such a term is used, I think it's often people's way of saying, "We've had one NBA choice the last few years". I think some are then bummed with the prospect of knowing 2K doesn't have any real competition at this time. I wouldn't recommend getting too caught up on the monopoly thing. I think that's more about semantics than anything else.
    It's totally semantics to then end user or gamers it's the same difference.
    I would say it's nice to meet you but it's not so I don't pretend it is when I greet you.

      Or at least make the payoff more worth it, like an online game = 7,500 VC for actually hanging on with the 2K Servers and an extra 2,500 for winning.

      Or myCareer.

      A+ game = 5,000 VC
      20+ Points = 1,000 VC
      10+ Assists/Rebounds = 750 VC
      Highlights = 100 VC per play
      any broken records in the game = 10,000.
      Key Game = + (50% earned)
      Playoffs = + (100% earned)
      Finals = + (150%)
      Finals Game Winner = (200%)
      Difficulty = Pro (-5%) to HOF (+10%)
      Minutes = 5 Minutes (-5%) to 12 (+15%)

      You either do 1 of 3 things:

      1) Eliminate VC (lol)
      2) Make the payoff more equal to one who buys VC
      3) Remove VC in basic modes except myTeam and follow the EA style of VC/offline XP gaining.

        Why not? It would be surprising if you competed a whole game with a cheeser and connected to a pretty unreliable server. 10K sounds bad for you? Ok then, 5K, it's just numbers, big thing is, that the earnings are to low compared to a 1 minute transaction with 5 dollars.

          Not bad for me but 2k loses some $$ with that people wouldn't be buying VC if they did it your way
