Some of you guys are hilarious!

Could you give me a link to where Mike Wang said everything you posted or are you being sarcastic?

When it comes to basketball, there are still people playing College Hoops 2K8 and football with NFL 2K5. Why? Because those games nailed the gameplay and immersion factors. They become great and extend their life. Games these days are more and more leaving me behind with their focus on online and trophies/achievements and 'crews' and all this stuff. And I'm only bloody 33 years old!

I agree on many of your points and you also show the division of Offline and Online importance. I'm a Offline guy, but overall betterment of the game should be priority.

again, kind of gimicky!!! Just another way to make a few extra dollars off of the youngsters who care about this stuff. the peole that complain about sneakers and incorrect accessoies will like this feature. IMO,
Its a feature is targeting a younger deomgraphic.

dont care for it, probably will never use it but at the same time doesnt bother me.

We all know will get more info on other modes within the next couple of weeks. And you can tell that they attempted to improve gameplay by looking at the Gamescon vids. Also the guys from the teamup event said that they improved in a lot of areas gameplay wise. Really!!! What's the big deal about adding your own pre-game ritual to My Player? There really isn't a reason to complain about this at all. I personally appreciate what 2k is adding to 2k13. Things are look good. Hopefully this game is a major improvement over 2k12. It sure looks like it is.

Thank You! Some of these people act like they are not gonna improve the game because of the small thinkgs they add... Those things add to the experience... If myplayer was just one menu that lets you play the game and look at your stats, Everyone would say how boring and bare this mode was and they needed to add more. Its just a Cool addition that probably didnt take a very long time for them to add. Its better they have it than not have it.
