will u make patches for nba 2K9?

2k9 is not coming out for the PC. At least, it hasn't been confirmed yet.

Ok first thing is first, there is nothing confirming that this game is being released on PC. Yes retailers are listing it, but none of them are confirming the existence of the game. The only creditable source of this is the ESRB website.

2ndly, IF this game comes out for PC, people on this site will most likely get and play it. However, discussion of the game will probably be limited to this section.

3rdly, IF the game comes out and IF for some reason this game is patchable near the same extent as Live is which is doubtful then we will consider making a patching preview & releases section for the 2k game.

Now, again, nothing confirms this game is actually going to make it out to the PC. But IF it does then we will act accordingly.

And if the game is coming out for PC, it begs the question why 2KSports don't mention a PC release, since it would be a perfect opportunity to swoop in and try to win an audience that for many years has only had one option on that platform, an option that doesn't exist for the 08/09 season.

I don't want to get anyone's hopes up but why would they put it on their site? If not now maybe next year?

Well first I wanted to thank you for showing us a site actually worth looking at for the PC possible release.

I'm still skeptical until this site http://www.2ksports.com/games/nba2k9 shows it or till its in my hands. Thanks for the link though.

by **bee-boy** on Tue Sep 23, 2008 9:57 pm

even gamestop has it listed down for pc : http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/Product ... t_id=72356

i still don't believe it's coming out for pc.

One of the users at konsolekingz's website showed that link first in the chatroom while playing the game and streaming it. (The user was KingSoul)

http://theotherseason.com/

I've just searched in google and found out that in 2K community website(Facebook's 2K Sports Page) somebody with a "2K Sports" nickname tells that there will be an announcement about this next week.
Here it is:
http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=6 ... 067&ref=mf

BTW, look at the official site and that site. Their servers are the same.
http://whois.domaintools.com/2ksports.com
http://whois.domaintools.com/theotherseason.com

So. This looks like the second official source after ESRB. Happy modding in the future everybody.

So they decided to do what EA won't and pressed the "compile for Windows" button in the 360 devkit?

by **BIG GREEN** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 11:51 am

Is it really that simple?

Lol. Yeah, is it that simple ? Answer please. :lol:

by **benji** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 1:11 pm

Yes. There literally is such a button.

You'd probably want to spend a week or so adding various PC centric options (details settings, where to save stuff, internet changes, mouse support, etc.) but other than that, yes, it is that simple.

by **Jing** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 1:16 pm

PES2008 or whatever I think was more or less a direct port of the 360 version, so would be nice to see this happen.

by **JWL3** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 2:00 pm

As someone else so eloquently put it, you think they program these games on some turd Xbox or PS3 machine? No, these games are programmed on PC's (or Mac's) for the Xbox and PS3.

So EA made a BUSINESS decision to screw us, not for a technical decision. (speaking of which, I'm going to download Crysis: Warhead now just to screw them. Maybe Spore too. I won't even play it. )

by **benji** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 2:09 pm

EA is only distributor for Crysis through EA Partners, buy it on Steam.

by **BIG GREEN** on Wed Sep 24, 2008 2:52 pm

Yea...i don't think he intends to "buy" anything. Download their game's illegally though JWL3, that'll show em! I bet they'll be going home crying to their mommy's knowing you didn't buy their game!

Exactly, cause the only reason we aren't getting Live 09 PC is because 07 and 08 weren't good games....really...that's the only reason....stop looking at me.......

Take Two has registered the UPC.

by **Nick** on Thu Sep 25, 2008 6:53 pm

Awesome! The facts are building up, and it's looking more and more likely. I hope to good it's the truth.

Man, this would create a whole new era in PC bball gaming. New patching files/methods, new roster save files. The whole community would be starting fresh. Everything would be different, but 10x better.

I'm excited.

I have an erection. :oops:

fantastic, but do you have a computer that could run it if by chance they do port the NG version and not the PS2 version.

Assuming of course it would be patchable.

by **Nick** on Fri Sep 26, 2008 2:58 pm

Well, yeah, i thought i kind of implied that. But yes.

Absolutely not. Why do you ask?

Here's hoping. :beer:

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Fri Sep 26, 2008 5:40 pm

Indeed, I didn't mean that to sound as harsh as it probably came off. I do think cautious optimism is appropriate here though as it remains to be seen how patchable a PC version would/will be.

by **Spotlight** on Fri Sep 26, 2008 9:00 pm

Yeah it will a new era for PC basketball! I'll deffinelty try to make some patches(when we will now how to do so)! I can't believe, but if it's true(it should be true with all information I got) and this game really will be released for pc, I will deffinelty buy it and if needed a new computer also! (Y)

by **Bsktblking25** on Mon Sep 29, 2008 2:31 am
