CLOSING COMMENTS

No sports game has ever made me this excited to play. Seriously it's all I've been able to think about for the last week. The realistic, challenging, gorgeously animated gameplay carries across a cornucopia of modes. Playing legends of the past, the stars of today, and my own personal NBA rookie are all different flavors of f#$%ing rad. Any one of these modes would be reason enough to purchase the game, but all of them together make for a game that any basketball fan has to pick up.

IGN RATINGS FOR NBA 2K12 (PS3)

Rating	Description
out of 10	Click here for ratings guide
10	Presentation The only way this could be more like an actual NBA broadcast would be if it locked the players out and canceled itself.
8.5	Graphics Fantastic animations, beautiful stadiums, realistic crowds, all hindered by the too regular appearance of a few hideous character faces.
10	Sound Hands down, the best commentary of any sports game ever. At times it surpasses actual NBA commentary. Dope soundtrack, too.
9.0	Gameplay Some pretty minor AI weirdness is the only spot on an otherwise gleaming game.
9.0	Lasting Appeal Between My Player, Association, NBA's Greatest, Creating a Legend, and the online modes, you'll be playing NBA 2K12 for the next 365 days.
9.5 OVERALL	Amazing (out of 10)

ign is so incompetent, this game has move support and not a single mention of it in the entire article, and also (although of lesser importance) no mention of the 3d.

sure he may not care about it, but others sure do, its part of the game, they damn well review the game.
