Next year they need to make a Dennis Rodman Edition, you could probably make a nice control system surrounding his actions in game.

There is no "reasoning" with art, it's all about the vision of how one perceives it. Two guys see something, one gets his mindblown away while the other yawns. It's just simple like that. No debate.

That's a cop out excuse for not thinking about art or appreciation of it. You give a reason why your mind is blown while the other one gives a reason why he's yawning. You present the reason for your perception even if it's just simply liking or hating it.

'I like it because it's purdy'
'I don't like it because its design is pretentious'

Even those are good enough reasons, instead of going PLEAS STAHP IT! ART IS BEYOND BOUNDARIES OF REASON! STAHP!

Well, that's pretty much the difference between robots and humans. You can't always describe what you are feeling in words, you just feel it. No words, speechless.

A game featuring LBJ on a Windows OS. I'd bet that game crashes after the 3rd quarter...

Interesting how people feel the need to stand up for some self centered jerk athlete.

You don't have to be Shakespearean in reasoning about it. You can like something for the simple reason of liking it and say that you like it.
Instead of telling people not to talk about it. :roll:

It was about time we got a LeBron cover... I wonder how much they paid him!
The guys in 2K have shown that they are not afraid of spending when it comes to marketing their product.

The main cover photo is pretty nice but I would really like a special effect on it and I wouldn't mind at all if this giant head wasn't on the background :mrgreen:

Cover looks fine and LeBron is obviously a good choice being one of the faces of the league. At the end of the day of course, it's just a cover and some bonus content.

I'm sure most people were hoping for a glimpse of the game itself, but that reveal spot was kind of fun.

I do have a thing against people who justify their hatred using the word "fact". But you are right, I'm sorry for going off-topic here. Won't happen again.

I wonder if that pose is intended so his hairline won't be noticed.

"You don't have to", it's intended to mean that the person addressed by it has the option of choosing to be detailed or simple in his reasoning. An OPTION and not a fact or strictly followed requirement. Did you even read my second post regarding this art matter?
...explaining stuff like this reminded me of an idiot I know...

Maybe, but the transparent pic kind of gives you a good idea where the hair is receding.

Well his hairline will be somewhere around his back soon. So it's a timeless cover.

As much as the LeBron hate is all around the atmosphere, I still prefer the guy over Jay-Z anyday. :roll:
