Steve Bartlett is checking in today with the first of two NBA 2K12 previews we will be running on the site this week. Steve's preview is more focused on the NBA 2K12 Greatest mode, some presentation touches and a couple random insights.

(Later in the week, I will be writing a more in-depth preview focusing more on gameplay and the current NBA -- I had a bit more time with the game than Steve.)

Thanks.

You better duck for cover from the "I want more details other than The Greatest Mode" crowd.

I think The Greatest Mode is fun to talk about beyond it being old timers. It speaks to certain focuses from an overall standpoint. The focus on signature style, the focus on honing in on era-specific gameplay (potentially), the work done on presentation -- it might just be me, but my favorite part of the mode is just seeing the old-school overlays and such.)

You can certainly extrapolate certain things from talk about Greatest Mode and assume what it means for the overall product. Also, I think we're WAY ahead of where we normally are in terms of seeing stuff for this game. Remember this is NBA 2K we're talking about. Usually we're lucky to get anything significant before like mid-September since they are the kings of "we'll show it when it's about finished."
