Just confused, don't really care. Bored lol
I have in fact posted a fair share of game news, but not every day.
Still don't like seeing this title but that's a personal thing, I mean this and FIFA and all those other yearly installments... duhhhh
Are there many NBA fans here by chance? Or what IS the rationale for covering this over anything else? I'm curious
I guess I will post fewer sports games, as there doesn't seem to be too much interest in sports games.
It's even a bigger scam than free phone games.
"There are more ways than ever before to spend your VC (Virtual Currency). Upgrade your MyPLAYER, buy MyTEAM packs to build your perfect fantasy team, and so much more! DEVELOP your MyPLAYER by increasing attributes and learning new animations. CUSTOMIZE your MyPLAYER with the latest gear by visiting the 2K Store. BUILD your MyTEAM by opening packs and creating a team of current players and NBA legends!"
Let's hope the EU bans this scam fast. :wtf: All they are doing is robbing kids who do not know better & also creating gambling addictions.
;)
Besides, there's the extra NEXT-GEN gaming enhancement features to experience (only for conSLOWS... but still, it'll come to PC soon enough).
ALL PC Gaming news, and its software, is TECH RELATED!
I for one appreciate the writer's attention to this.
If you don't, well, don't be "curious" anymore and how about just ignoring/skipping the article and move on. Simple, right?!
Last sports game I think I played and enjoyed was NHL 95 on the PS1.
Hell, I was just at the store and saw a Madden Football game with a picture of John Madden on it and all I could think of "isn't he dead?" and not actually of the game Football/handegg or whatever.
So instead of "2023" the use "2K23", obviously for better identification. ;)
