    Only two things I saw...

    1) Spacing. I think this has been an issue with their games the last couple of years. It's like the court is too small and there isn't room to maneuver. Don't want it to where there is so much space, anyone can drive. But still, it seems there needs to be more spacing and have the defense act accordingly.

    2) The AI Lakers.... what were they doing on offense? They were just either dribbling too much and trying to force a drive or passing it everywhere. It's like they had no idea how to run an offense or have any direction. I'm not too worried about this though. It seems their early gameplay videos have this every year, like it's an early build before they put in tendencies and coaching profiles, etc.

    he is referring to online leagues in the form they were in 2k11. like flex scheduling and limiting the amount of teams in the league, which hopefully will be features in 2k13, but not apparent from this article.

    A bit disappointed. Doesn't look much different in terms of gameplay or graphics. I see they still haven't gotten rid of those r****ded over head lob passes....and created players still look like they all come from the same brother and sister parents.

    the gameplay is a bit improved, but it was already amazing. you should buy it for the new features they're bringing to my player if anything. 2k13 is going to be the best basketball game ever made.

    I guess you don't like My Player mode.

    It's the only reason I buy the game. Awesome!!

    the gameplay = where big baby davis catches Lebron on a fast break... speed, speed, speed. All they needed to do was fix speed and update the roster and it seemes like they didn't... not worth 65 bucks.

    they said they fixed that...I mean you don't have to buy it, but when all of your friends have it and you tell them "2k12 is the same as 2k13" when they ask you why you can't play with them then you might reconsider.

    MyPlayer in 2k13 is essentially just the player you create. You can give him new clothes, increase his stats, and all that jazz.

    MyCareer is the actual basketball career you play with your MyPlayer. It's essentially the old MyPlayer mode, but with enhanced features and such.

    I hope that makes sense.

    Same here, not buyin dis ish because of new dribbling and a few my player upgrades.

    Online servers will still be terrible, gameplay is pretty arcade if you really look into it.

    That is baller status haha

    I like what they've done. It's hard for 2k since the completely blew out EA Sports and have been putting a great product out. They will get criticized for every small thing but they are still trying to improve the game which is awesome.

    Its only 30 dollars for the PC version.
    Well worth it. Considering NBA Live, a steaming piece of **** is $15.

    No. It makes no sense. They keep sounding like the same mode to me.

    Okay I'll try again...

    MyPlayer isn't an actual game mode. It's simply you creating your player and outfitting him with whatever clothes, tattoos, and accessories you want and stuff like that.

    MyCareer IS a game mode. It's the game mode that you import the MyPlayer that you created into, and play out the seasons, sign endorsements, demand trades, etc.

    If you can't understand that, then that's the best I can do. Read about it online.
