Take-Two CEO Defends NBA 2K's microtransactions, says some customers just want everything to be free

[ORDER_66]

hope yall keep that same energy when the trailer drops

I could care less about this bullshyt ass NBA2k... Haven't y'all learned from EA and Star Wars Battlefront 2 on how they destroyed that game with the microtransactions???

I know it’s almost a meme at this point but if EA gets their shyt together with NBA live they have a huge opportunity to do some real damage to 2K.

But that would require EA to not be bumbling morons so i wouldn’t count on it

I'm not going to pay a dollar more for a game I already paid $60 for. I will wait until December when NBA Live is $24 on PSN if I really need a basketball game fix.

I’ve been shyttin on 2k every chance I get, I was telling dudes 2k18 was gonna be ass before it even came out. Don’t group me up with the ‘yall’ I just hope nikkas don’t change up when 2k announces that players jerseys will untuck as the game goes on

I don't even play sports games like that, they keep milking everyone like EA and Madden... it's literally the SAME game over and over again!!!

Those motherfukkers are making us pay for a damn haircut. And you cant even view it until you buy it .

You get bounced out the shop until the animation is done. Like why​

NBA Live finally showed some promise after damn near 2 generations.

I will be buying live again this year. No way can I support this foolishness 2K is pulling on the ONLY mode I like in that franchise

Video games are basically the cheapest, and best, form of entertainment (even with $20 of extra DLC).

Game + DLC = $80. With over 30 hours of playtime, it's $2.66 per hour.
Movie: $10. With 3 hours of viewing, it's $3.33 per hour
Book: $20. With 5 hours of reading, it's $4 per hour

Basically, even with DLC, gaming provides the biggest bang for your buck
