    Well this is a nice surprise. I'd love to see Unrivaled have all kinds of hidden characters NBA Jam had, but I'm betting this is a pretty bare bones arcade basketball experience. The best news is that Tecmo releasing a sports title should help pave the way for Tecmo Bowl 2010! :^) #nbaunrivaled

    I'm sorry, but this is not 2K's "gala 10th anniversary year."

    Count with me, kids!

    NBA2K = #1!
    NBA2k1 = #2!
    NBA2k2 = #3!
    NBA2k3 = #4!
    ESPN NBA Basketball 2k4 = #5!
    ESPN NBA2k5 = #6!
    NBA2k6= #7!
    NBA2k7 = #8!
    NBA2k8 = #9!
    NBA2k9 = #10!
    NBA2k10 = ...gasp. #11!

    And yet, they have "10th anniversary" splashed all over the boxes. Is basic math a problem for basketball players? Or did somebody drop the ball in marketing last year and they're hoping nobody will notice this year? #nba2k10

    No, that's one of the villains. Er, one of the bad-guy villains, that is. Um...one of the bad-guy villain criminals, I should say. (I think that eliminates pretty much everyone other than him and Johnny's nemesis, right?) And his character has a less than perfect grasp of the finer points of the English language. #nba2k10

    In west Philadelphia, born and raised
    On the Playstation was where I spent most of my days
    Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool
    And all shootin' some b-ball with friends from school

    When a couple of publishers were up to no good
    Started making trouble in my neighborhood
    They got in one little fight and my mom got scared
    She said 'You're goin'outside to play in the fresh air'

    I went out to a court but when I got near
    I saw the markings were worn and there was no gear
    If anything I can say this can't compare
    To my b-ball game. 'Yeah. I'm going back there'

    I walked up to my house it was getting late
    And I yelled to my mom 'Yo, why such a hater?'
    I got to my room
    And she was there
    Sitting on my throne playing WarioWare

    Oh, the mudslinging..

    As with most savvy gamers, i've been in the scene long enough to take these stories with a grain of salt. This is dick-measuring 101 and while i find the conduct of both corporational speakers unnecassarily childish, it does light the spark of competition.

    If it leads to innovative design decisions, revamps and additional tweaks, the games are all the more richer for it. Sadly, this playground mentality offers nothing more than insight in the severe lacking of diplomacy, in this business.

    I don't know if this is a purely "western" thing but i find it laughable that grown men in freshly pressed suits, roll op their sleeves one afternoon for a yellow snowball fight. Truly a sad sight to behold.

    How does it make you feel when you report on these matters, Owen? #nba2k10

    In reply to NBA Live 10 and NBA 2K10: It's Fargin' War
    The last Live that was better than 2K was in 2004. I picked up 2k10 this year, as always, and am now wondering, post-patch, whether Live is actually better. 2K10 plays like it's stuck in fucking molasses, and the online on PSN is, in my experience, fucking broken. Also, if it's actually 720p, I'd be pretty surprised, because it's jaggy as all hell. It's also laggy as shit (during singleplayer) and you end up tapping a button more than once to try and do what you want to happen, only it somehow stacks these button presses and you end up doing the thing as many times as you pressed the button, but with a huge delay. It's goddamned awful. The controls are so slow and unresponsive, it's like playing basketball fucking underwater. #nba2k10
