Lack of competition helps because they essentially have a monopoly on the market. To starve it's most raving fans of information is not good will.

The marketing... Or lack there of is not the reason. 3 weeks out from release and I have to rely on shaky video and a couple of sparse articles?

Good thing there is no deadline for deciding whether or not to buy a game.

I understand 2K is late when it comes to releasing info and gameplay videos but even if nothing dropped until the day before release (which would never happen) most of us would still be buying the game AS LONG AS everything looked good.

2K does this almost every year so I guess I've just grown to accept it. Plus once those developer blogs start releasing they are usually loaded with information and well worth the wait. In fact I feel like people on here become apologetic once the news drops: "sorry I doubted you 2k!" "OMG this sounds awesome well worth the wait!" "September 16th can't get here soon enough!"
