    Want the Magic cover and seeing how 2k12 is not cheaper on the German site of Amazon I'm going to buy at some regular shop. Gamestop is like 500m away from the faculty where I study so I'll pick it up after my friday schedule ends(comes out Friday, 7th in Germany), leaving me excited the whole way back home and then Imma prepare for a sick weekend full of 2k12.

    The AI is brutal on All Star sim

    Start off on Pro sim to have a chance but still play good competetive games

    They dont let up at all, and as soon as you start slacking off you find your lead gone or you're down


    On all star, they're just brutal, you almost have to play perfect to win
    The Cpu doesnt try to get all fancy and play games, they come to play, so you better play some defense

    You've been warned, get cute and you'll be blown out

    Pretty sure it will be on Steam. Last couple years, it seems like they wait until the day of release (or maybe a few days later, can't remember) to put up NBA 2K on Steam. So a few weeks before release, everyone is wondering whether it will be on Steam.

    You can definitely order 2K12 from places other than Steam:
    http://www.amazon.com/NBA-2K12-Pc/dp/B00542XGPA/

    (might be one of those games that requires Steam though, not sure)

    so is this PC game full, association and all? I have a macbook air, not a big gaming thing of course but if I did get it on here, I would just use the association and all the development things where I wouldn't have to use the gameplay since I would only feel comfortable doing that on a system. Do you think a macbook air could hold up, 4gb ram so on?

    Hey is Lowry's shot wet? I seen they gave him a stupid looking jumper, looks like Steve Francis shot. As long as it's wet I won't complain too much.

    also, is the association mode the same? That is really disappointing that they seem to have just put it online, but made the logic and code for it the same since there are SO many flaws

    Pretty sure it has everything. I haven't really followed 2K12 (I bought into the "best 2K/sports game ever" hype too many times before), but don't see why they wouldn't include that in the PC version.

    No idea how a Macbook Air could handle it (I'm not even familar with how Mac gamers play PC games like this...guess through Wine?). Specs look pretty bad for gaming. Not sure how well 2K scales down. As you said, you might have a shot if it lets you just simulate everything. Never thought about testing something like that out.

    You can maybe try OnLive, assuming they support 2K12. I seem to recall them having 2K11...so maybe 2K12 is a good possibility.
