I'm not going to beg (tweet) like a dog for them to release the cover (that is if I have a Twitter account). Screw you Ronnie. I can wait till the release.

They don't even have 100k followers on twitter but wants 100k people to tweet. If its Derrick Rose, I'mma be under-excited, but the "Magic Vs. Bird" idea would have me overexcited!!! : )

I agree with shadow. I'm not giving in to their ultimatum. A nice blank cover would be awesome.

It looks like the covers will be random or maybe specific region will have specific cover. :)

MJ's cover is the best looking one for me, but I would like Bird's to be the one used for the game whet it comes out.

Guys here's an idea, I think 2kSports will release this game with unique covers. At the release date, people will have the chance to buy their copy of the game in stores with their preferred NBA legend as the cover. Yes a unique cover, but still with the same game content. Another idea is that I think that we have 3 Legendary mode with this year's game -- career games of Bird, Johnson and an added games for MJ. What do you think guys? :cheeky: BTW... Great idea for 2kSports. I think they will be able break last year's sales because of the option to choose between these three legendary players!

Cool. I'm assuming this expands the Jordan challenge with Bird and Magic challenges. :applaud:

The Magic cover is the worst only because it is an ugly hook shot, but the purple electricity makes up for it really nicely.

Awesome covers. Given the choice, I'll be going with the MJ cover again.

Nice covers. Reminds me of the NBA trading cards Electrified series. Was that from Upper Deck or Topps?

Posted by ClevelandinDistress @ OS:
"From Kotaku.com

"A pre-order bonus could be a hint at what that might entail. Preorders will receive codes for two classic teams for use in the game, the 1990-1991 Golden State Warriors of Chris Mullin, Tim Hardaway and Mitch Richmond, and the 2000-2001 Sacramento Kings of Chris Webber, Vlade Divac and Jason Williams.""

omg, Larry Legend


Awesome covers, but I do wish all three were on the same cover. With a choice I'm getting Bird but I'm going to shoot for DD this year rather than driving an hour to a store.

Also, looks like they are going back to the $20 price point for the PC version :dance:

more good news
What I mean by my last tweet is that MJ will be in #NBA2K games for the forseeable future, he isn't going away for a few years
