Handy. Still, it's a bit of a slap in the face of PC gamers nevertheless.

[LHead2]

I'm not sure which I dislike more, the cel-shading or the fact that it's something you have to pay for.

I'm sure as hell not disappointed it's not coming for PC, because I wouldn't even consider throwing money at something like this. Paid DLC for a game that has such glaring issues is a despicable business model.

[Bnicolas13]

Less for more, I guess I should have seen this coming. Shawn Bradley FTW though. He'd be fun to mess around with

[JaoSming]

iirc though, you cannot take these legends out of the DLC mode

[gogadantes]

I will forever hate 2ksports' act of going down the road taken by companies like EA and Activision in cutting out features available in last year's game and charging us for them in a DLC* for this year.
That is all.


*AND they don't even make it available to PC users, which bums me out because if they had then I'd get it using...less conventional methods, purely out of spite. Gosh I despise these greedy companies
Rant over. Sorry

these players are all on the cd hidden in the game already

Not The Great Wall of Yao . I could care less about the rest of this so-called 'DLC', but Mr. Ming and Iverson's CF are the two things I miss the most this year. Well, that and frickin' 1v1 to 4v4 ball

[JaoSming]

What's the point then? I would consider paying 10 bucks to get an additional 45 legends teams and getting to play with Cedric Ceballos if they correctly captured his garbageman game.

I wouldn't even play this mode but 45 additional teams would've been appealing.

[JaoSming]

quote from one of the comments @ OS

it's heartbreaking to see 2K having access to 45 additional legends and not including them in the actual game.

I dont have the original source of that, but I do remember that none of the new legends are available for the normal game. With the REDitor on the 360 we'll be able to use that art from this DLC and maybe ratings to get them into the game, but it wont be possible on the PS3's encrypted files

[The X]

It's not really art I'm interested in, it's more signature jump shots, ducks, layups etc.

[JaoSming]

since the DLC does involve actual gameplay, I'm sure all the legends have their respective ratings that could be unlocked on the 360. Again, I dont think it will happen for PS3 users.

[LHead2]

It's not really art I'm interested in, it's more signature jump shots, ducks, layups etc.

I'm certainly looking forward to more signature ducks too.

[JaoSming]

nice

[Andrew]

I'd forgotten about those. Of all the collectibles that have come out over the years, they're probably the funniest.

[shadowgrin]

I find them racist.

[gogadantes]

say it like it is gogadantes

I'm actually holding back, Jao.

[Fresh8]

So if you get the DLC (pay for it I mean)... you get 45 extra players?

I'm too stingy to do that.

[JaoSming]

45 Extra Players for that Cell Shaded Legends Mode. Not for the actual game.
