Re: NBA 2K23 Impressions Thread (XBOX SERIES S/X & PS5)

Somehow, they pick the release of arguably the best sports title to date to make a stand? That 2K23 deserves to be called out for "predatory ways", yet the others get to skate?? Give me a break.

Re: NBA 2K23 Impressions Thread (XBOX SERIES S/X & PS5)

Review scores matter. It's why we see them on the back of the box; it's a quick distillation of the quality of a game. I'm sorry, but we're not going to see "The IGN review gives this game a solid...

Re: NBA 2K23 Impressions Thread (XBOX SERIES S/X & PS5)

I can't disagree with this more.

IGN is one of the most influential gaming websites out there. Their rating will likely influence many people's purchasing decisions, in addition to perception of...

Re: ESPN NFL 2K5 and ESPN NFL Football Work in 4K on Xbox Series X

The few plays of First Person football actually look pretty cool. Thanks for posting

Re: Some news

I'm in. I'd agree if they're going the Lego route it's a little underwhelming, but 2K really is hamstrung by the EA/NFL/NCAA simulation exclusivity deals. Until seeing the NFL caricature commercial...

Re: 2k should make college all pro football 🏈

I don't see 2K as having any incentive whatsoever to put a lot of resources behind making some fantastical sandbox football game. Gamers have shown themselves to be extremely fickle.

Even with...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

It's an interesting point. I would say ultimately it factored in to some degree but probably not much. EA has admitted they had been pursuing exclusivity for years, prior to the actual...

Re: When Will The Official Reveal Happen?

I have a hard time believing the game will be a major title. Do we even know for sure the game will have a console release? Given the popularity of mobile gaming, it could be more about exploring...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

It's all subjective, but I disagree. Personally I wasn't referring to the XBox/PS2 Maddens vs. NFL2K. The problem with Madden occurred when it made the next gen jump to PS3 after the exclusivity...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

Okay, silly of me to put Madden on the same plane as NBA Live. Madden as a brand is synonymous with videogame football.

Do think a competent competitor could've put a serious dent in their...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

Thanks for the article; never knew about it. Interesting read. Confirms a lot of dysfunction that was occurring back in '06. But some of which must still exist today - just last year didn't they...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

So you're saying they rested on their laurels after they got exclusivity lol? Not sure why you're nitpicking my statements; it's undeniable Madden got much worse post-exclusivity. But I'd argue...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

This x10

Early during the "market war", EA seemed to put more effort into shutting out 2K than making smart development decisions, and it's affected Madden to this day. I still see remnants in...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

I think you're overreacting to my use of Microsoft as an example and putting in the word "antitrust" next to it - I wasn't trying to make a legal argument at all. Personally I don't think Madden is...

Re: How did the whole 2k vs EA market war happen?

This is pretty accurate. It had nothing to do with the NFL feeling their brand was being devalued by the NFL2K5 price point, although that's the narrative Madden fans have tried to push over the...

Re: NBA 2K21 Next Gen - Here's Everything That's Not in the Last-Gen Game

I don't think it's energy as much as it is being spoiled. There's a level of expectations this game is held to other sports games aren't held to.

Re: NBA 2K21 Next-Gen Gameplay Blog (Part 2 of 3) - Movement, Contact, Impact Engine

No offense, but you sidestepped the questions: Which game is the next gen standard bearer? Don't be like someone else and say "all of them" lol. Complete silliness. Spiderman MM? Ratchet and...

Re: NBA 2K21 Next-Gen Gameplay Blog (Part 2 of 3) - Movement, Contact, Impact Engine

I think KSuttonjr76's point is valid - and none of the people complaining have tried to answer it. Which next gen launch game should 2K21 be measured against? Which launch game is the next gen...

Re: NBA 2K21 Next-Gen Gameplay Trailer & Screenshots

I don't think it's a good thing - 2K21 may be the only sports launch title that's not going the easier upscale route. Even for people that have issue with the game from the little bit they've seen,...

Re: NBA 2K21 Next-Gen Gameplay Trailer & Screenshots

This shocked me - they aren't charging anything! You actually made me look this up. I just assumed there were going to be next gen specific sports game releases, and that's not even the case. ...
