I'm still pondering if I should get Injustice 2 Ultimate Edition. I just don't get the prices. All in all, I love the art and the Shaq covers. I thought the ad was hilarious. I'm happy for Shaq.

I honestly don't think 2 weeks of reviews are enough. They can drop a Major patch right when you pick it up and it'll turn into NBA 2k18.5.


I'm waiting a few months.

Charles Barkley just said on NBA TNT that he'll do video games (I'm guessing he means NBA 2K) with the rest of the TNT crew when 2K Sports pay the retired players?

I want to take advantage of my Amazon Prime pre-order bonus. I'm not buying this game at full price 2-week period on Amazon or not. I'm buying NBA Live 18 regardless how bad it is just to support it. It's a 90% chance I will not buy or play 2K18 because of my frustrations with 2K17. This game has to be a highly rated game across the board for me to consider. No more blindly buying this franchise. Too many mishaps with this one for me to support 2K18. I can't do it.

I'm glad I'm on PC which means I can likely find a steam key for something less than 60$/€ whatever currency...
I remember when 2k first came out for PC, i was so glad the price was just 30€. Now we're on par with EA/Ubisoft bull**** overpriced games...

Because we got half the features. Now that we have full featured game we should be and are priced the full retail 60 dollars.

Was it that way? Did we have less features on NBA 2k11 for example?

Older 2k's used to have less features (mostly bunch online modes cut off) . Now we have all game modes that consoles got. Only big downside about PC version is 2k's lack of care about cheating/hacking in online modes which make it less desirable vs consoles (also it leads to having too little online people in certain regions).
