footy commentators use it a lot here with essentially the same meaning.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 1:09 am
That must be an Austrailian/Football term I guess. I've never, ever heard it used in a basketball game. I'm pretty sure if you were playing a pickup game here and suggested running a 1-2 the game would be paused for a few minutes while you got your ass kicked and they found a replacment for you.

Soccer calls it a 1-2, not so weird to call a give and go that, it's basically the same team.
Just because your culture isn't used to soccer terms doesn't make someone else an idiot when he uses one.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 1:54 am
I guess idiot is also considered a harsher word in soccer terms? I wasn't trying to be insulting, maybe I'll call people nincompoops instead from now on.
Anyways, I'm sorry if that offended you artestfighttrainer.

also on the 2k forums some dude wants to trade 2k7 on 360 for live 07, dont know if the dude is serious but its pretty funny to read some of the comments.

People over here usually scream out "ONE TWO!!!! ONE TWO!!!" when they pass it. Damn hogs.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 8:29 pm
Anyone know if its in stores in Australia yet, the release date was today wasnt it? 27th October.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 9:38 pm
I believe it has been delayed to around the 2nd of November, if not later. Best bet is to check out
http://www.palgn.com.au. There release date is really accurate and reasonably up to date.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 10:29 pm
2nd of November? Damn I'm angry. I've been visiting stores all around.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 10:33 pm
Yeah it's pretty annoying. I heard over at the official xbox forums. It sucks that we have to wait, but personally it's not too bad cause I don't need anymore distractions while I have my exams.
Anyway, one more week. Should get it a couple of games into the actual season.
Fri Oct 27, 2006 10:37 pm
Yup. We got exams in the end of November to the start of December but i still want the game though.
Sat Oct 28, 2006 8:46 am
I won't even get started on how annoyed I have been with the delay....provided I can, next year I'll mod my 360 so I can play NTSC games, so I can import college hoops 2k7 & nba 2k7 when they are release in the States....
Sat Oct 28, 2006 10:58 am
Yeah, i dont understand why they have to delay everything over here. Hell even England has probably got the game and theres about 2 basketball fans in the whole country. Australia get so ripped off its a joke, people still dont think we are an established country. Anyway it better be there on November 2nd or I'm really gonna be pissed off.

EB said they finally have a release date....November 7
Sat Oct 28, 2006 11:56 am
Well thats just great. Its so unfair, the Americans and a few other places have had a whole month of playing this game, while we still have to wait even longer. Its just stupid, At least Live came out at around the same time as in the US.

One Month Later ..... I call up EB Games. "Hey um when will NBA 2k7 come out."
EB Store manager says " Tomorrow"
I visit the store tomorrow. I say "Wheres NBA 2k7".
Employee at store says, "Its coming next week"
Sat Oct 28, 2006 7:38 pm

Sat Oct 28, 2006 10:39 pm

Maybe because they said they were going to release a week ago
Sun Oct 29, 2006 1:01 am
so? november is still better than march. i was trying to get DoR2 last year, it got delayed three separate times for a totla of at least 2 months.
Sun Oct 29, 2006 11:55 am
I got a question about the game someone whos got it could answer?
- Is is possible to change current players hair and their height and stuff like that? i heard this somewhere was just confirming?

we are bitching because EB had release date at October 20....I went in on 20th, they said, 24th....I went in on the 24th, they said 1 day to 2 weeks....and they've recently said November 7th....I did this (

) because I expect them to give a date later than this when I rocked up to pick up game....I'm obviously searching elsewhere in the meantime, but yeah....
so as you can see, I'm more annoyed that they keep pushing dates back....I just want a concrete date, that's all....I would prefer them to give a conservative release date & beat it....if you get told it's out between 1 day & 2 weeks, you're going to keep looking for it....at least I have another date to look forward to....
I also want to start a multi-player Association which you can't do in 2k6, so that's another reason for my impatience....ahh well, it'll happen, it's not the end of the world....
at least this fiasco has made my mind up....next year I will mod 360 so I can play region free games & then import nba 2k8, plus college hoops 2k8....

I think i will be doing the same.
Sun Oct 29, 2006 9:02 pm
Is it a risky operation to get your 360 made region free? I'd do anything to be able to play a college hoops game, but I don't want to risk getting a messed up 360 back without having any warranty (because it's still illegal right?).
