Dude your throwback 2k11 cover is awesome! Not a tiger fan but love the old school stuff.

It was 2 days late.

Sounds good. Hopefully I get my copy tomorrow.

Is it too much to ask that a game release WITHOUT the need for a patch on day 1? How frustrating it would be for someone who has no access to the internet.

Given 2k's history with this series and the notoriously long laundy list of bugs, I'll wait until reviews and until the game drops to $20, which is probably the price point it deserves.

I would imagine that it is because they find issues between the time the game is pressed and release date.

Given that in the past it has been weeks and months before the first patch, I think many of us are thrilled to see a patch on release day. It acknowledges that nothing goes out on launch date perfectly, it demonstrates a willingness to immediately work on fixing last minute tweaks, and proves that there is an effort being made to please consumers. In fact, it may have even been done on purpose, but the effect on the average consumer is the same: it looks like they care.
