Why Charles Barkley Isn’t Appearing in NBA 2K12

12:13 AM - August 24, 2011 by Steve_OS

In a follow up article we linked to the other day, Kotaku has revealed why Charles Barkley isn’t appearing in NBA 2K12.

Quote:


	2K Sports attempted to include basketball great Charles Barkley in NBA 2K12's "NBA's Greatest" mode, showcasing dozens of superstars spanning the game's history, but the two sides were unable to reach an agreement bringing the hall-of-famer to the video game. He will not appear in NBA 2K12. "There's no doubt in our minds that Charles is and should always be a key part of the conversation as it relates to who are the NBA's Greatest players of all time," a 2K Sports spokesperson told Kotaku. "We have a very positive relationship with Sir Charles and while we were unable to include him in-game this year for a variety of reasons, we share everyone's hope that he may one day appear in our game."

barkley thought 2k would only make him look fat, old, slow, useless, injury prone as a player playing for the rockets with a very low sub par rating thats why he wouldnt allow himself to appear on dis game

he wanted to be featured as a superman next or above air jordan
