it also seems that now My Player is renamed to MYCAREER cool nice find Jao

[Leftos]

MyTeam + Boosters sounds more like FIFA & Madden's Ultimate Team concept, rather than Crew.

Here's what it's like in Madden: http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/feat ... imate-team

But boy oh boy oh boy am I excited about whatever Total Sim Control in Association is! Finally, we get some love! Let it be the good kind o' love, not the "here's some choloroform, Imma show you what love feels like."

Creating A Legend mode is back as well.

Sorry about capslock rage but; AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

[JaoSming]

shit....didnt even think of the Ultimate Team stuff from EA.....you might be right Leftos

[Leftos]

Booster Packs are a big free-to-play, pay-to-get-more-stuff-quicker concept of Ultimate Team in FIFA & Madden, so that's the correlation I did. We'll see.

[JaoSming]

but there are the VC money or w/e in another achievement, so maybe you can boost from that? /hopeful

[Leftos]

We're speculating wildly now. Let's just wait for some more information.

[Andrew]

It certainly sounds like game modes have received a fair bit of attention this year, after kind of falling by the wayside last year with the lockout and NBA's Greatest being the focus. Great to hear, though hopefully that also means the major bugs have been stamped out in addition to the cool new features being hinted at.

[Phraynk]

Purchasing pre-game rituals is a pretty exciting addition!

[bowdown]

hey btw guys do we know if NBA 2k13 will be on steam? When do we usually find this out?

[JaoSming]

the week of, but yes, it should be on steam

[gogadantes]

WAAAAAAaaaaaiiit a minute....don't want to be the one raining on everyone's parade here, but it doesn't say anything about a proper Blacktop Mode, right? Just 'a' Blacktop Mode? No info on 1v1 to 4v4 yet, right? Can anyone confirm on this?

[JaoSming]

you are correct, but this at the very least gives me a court for Street Mods

[hrbulls]

Nice find, Jao! Excited to hear what "total sim control" is all about

[2Khoward]

2K13 sounds like it going to be the best 2k by far.

[diamenz]

2K13 sounds like it going to be the best 2k by far.

they say that every year. if the idiotic and scripted gameplay hasn't been fixed/improved upon what's the point?

[2Khoward]

We will have to see when it comes out.

[gogadantes]

Fingers crossed so f'n hard on this one I might sprain them.

[TGsoGood]

I miss all the old black top courts from 2k7 on back

[daddy123]
