| - | Most of you know I'm a big NBA fan... check my steam activity, or previous blog posts re LeQuit James. Each year I've bought NBA 2K solely for one on one multiplayer. Most years I've been disappointed by their inability to get the online part right. Last year they got it much closer to right. But they have so far never got more than 2 players multiplayer right.

UNTIL NOW! This year they have a Quick Team Up option where a minimum of 4 players can play a game where you are randomly assigned a SINGLE player to control from a game that's going on IRL that day. Shad and I have had a few games and it really works well. You get ratings for how well you play, losing points for being a ball hog, falling over randomly (a guy in one of our games did this... 40+ times lol. Despite being the highest scorer in the game he still got an F. (More after the break)

NBA 2K13
Most of you know I’m a big NBA fan… check my steam activity, or previous blog posts re LeQuit. Each year I’ve bought NBA 2K solely for one on one multiplayer. Most years I’ve been disappointed by their inability to get the online part right. Last year they got it much closer to right. But they have so far never got more than 2 players multiplayer right.

So.. the point of my post is to drum up some interest for anyone that’s ever had an interest in online gaming, but wanted to give something other than your standard FPS a go. I’ve always loved sports games, I know they’re not everyones cup of tea and that’s ok. But multiplayer sports games… especially where you control only one player, is an interesting concept that’s been around for a while, but is rarely done well.
If you’re interested, chat to me or Shad.
Also… it’s quite reasonably priced on steam – $30. Not bad for a game released a few days ago.
