[quote name='mrclutch']To your point with no Baseball game on the 360 next year MLB 2k12 may become a little valuable like NCAA Basketball 10. Come Spring guys are going to be wanting a baseball game to play.[/QUOTE]

Wait, this is 2K's last year? When did that happen?

 

[slofton]

I have NO interest in NBA, but loads in MLB. Soooo..... Who wants to go half for the NBA game? lol

 

[WNYX585AM]

[quote name='kilik64']Thanks for the info unlike others who post one line with no info...

Any rate I blame joystiq since that's how the article read, just looked up again now there is update clarifying that Yea they keep license just not exclusive.

I really doubt anyone will make a competing product. Cost too much to start a new series I would think.[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't be surprised if 2K does it. Especially if they are not doing baseball anymore.

 

[ooga]

[quote name='WNYX585AM']I get Bureau of Indian Affairs or Brick Industry Association. Salacious indeed... [/QUOTE]

Change it to image search.

 

[heyheyhey11]

[quote name='tuffguycore']Holy shit, that's a legend game? Alright, I was already thinking of biting, now I'm thinking it would be a no brainer...[/QUOTE]

Again, super awesome game if you're fan of 80s and 90s Nba. Today's nba sucks for me. So I've unlocked all the legends teams. what I do is, I play season mode and replace all the current teams with legends teams of the 80s and 90s. So icould have 96 bulls along with 95 Knicks and magic. 93 hornet is there along with current celtics and 86 celtics. 86 hawks, 89 pistons and cavs. On the west I have two lakers teams. Other being 86 lakers. 94 rockets and nuggets. 96 sonics with 98 jazz.

*raises hand*

 

[confoosious]

[quote name='TheBomb69']*raises hand*[/QUOTE]

Easier to just trade in the other half on amazon. No shipping costs.

 

[chriscolbert]

[quote name='kilik64']Then why buy it if you have a ps3? May not deserve hate but if it's not the best, why bother? In the immortal words of Ricky Bobby "If you ain't first, you're last"

If 360 only then you have no choice.

Completely off topic sorta but everyone realizes that NCAA football is gone after next year too right? Already no NCAA bball game, no third party Mlb game, it's like all sports games are dieing off slowly...[/QUOTE]

While I do have a PS3, I also have two 360s. One of them is obviously hooked to a different TV and like I said earlier, while The Show sets the bar impossibly high, there are a few areas that 2K12 does better in and I like the idea of always having an MLB game to play on any TV.

And as someone else mentioned earlier, there is a good chance that this is it for the MLB 2K series so until someone else steps up it's my best option.

 

[slofton]

Looks like someone is splitting it with me already. If it falls through, want me to let you know?

That's cool. I am just going to sell back baseball to Amazon.

Is this instore too or do I have to order it online and get store pick up?

 

[dvgamer]

[quote name='Flame Killa']Is this instore too or do I have to order it online and get store pick up?[/QUOTE]

In-store as well, if it isn't marked down in-store just mention the deal of the day to an employee and they should have it adjusted.

 

[snakemaster2389]

if anyone gets an extra copy pm me, i have a $20 psn card and a $10 best buy gc(can be used online too!) would love to have this combo pack

 

[chriscolbert]

I'm convinced my store has this despite it saying otherwise so I did place an order to be shipped this morning when it first went on sale. If it hasn't shipped when I go by the store later, does anyone know if they can fulfill it with an in-store copy? I know they would probably just cancel it and let me buy the other copy, but I used several RZ certs and a GC and I know those funds don't usually become available right away.

only if your order is backordered, and you find a copy in store.

 

[mrclutch]

Something I just remebered that everyone buying might wasn't to consider. 2k took the 2k11 servers down within a month of NBA 2k12 coming out. Not sure if they will do that again but you MIGHT not be able to play online for very long.

 

[S1mplyPr1celess]

Just bought it at the Best Buy in Paramus, NJ. I was kicking myself for not picking it up when the price was low when it the NBA was on strike. Best part was just 2 days before I was in there looking at the game with my pops and I said for the price they wanted its not worth it, even tho I heard really great reviews from my friends about NBA 2k12 (Plus I haven't played a baseball game since Sega Genesis RBI 94').

 

[tuffguycore]

[quote name='slofton']I have NO interest in NBA, but loads in MLB. Soooo..... Who wants to go half for the NBA game? lol[/QUOTE]

Haha, I would actually do that because I really want the NBA but don't care about the MLB... send me a PM

 

[Saint'sRow911]

GS is still doing 30% extra.

Today base values are
MLB 2k12 $21
NBA 2k12 $13

I gladly picked up my copy since if I don't like MLB it's going straight to GS

 

[GtoTheNextLevel]

Hot off the press, guys: Friday August 3rd, Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 are going to be $10 each on all consoles (except Vita).

That's the only gaming DOTD next week. Also, Looney Tunes Platinum Collection Blu-Ray will be $20 on Aug. 2nd. Ill be getting that fo sho.

FYI, in a week or two (Week 5 or 6 of Gamestock), Gamestop will be having a "Buy a used game, get 50% extra credit for your trade-ins" promo, so if you're willing to wait and risk those base values staying that high, you could make an additional 20% profit.

[TheBomb69]

How are people flipping these as I just came back from Best Buy and the combo pack comes in one case making it impossible to sell separately?

 

[Vigilante]

[KratosGOW2525]

I don't think I will ever understand why people buy a game, and then sell it for literally about 3$ more..I understand trying to make a profit, but when it's that little of a amount, it's not even worth it.

 

[ChunLiBarbie]

Wayyyyyy too many games from the OP have dropped then dropped, again. Whether from a DOTD or the Summer Blowout. This game pack may come back for under $20.

I think I'll wait to buy a Silent Hill game. Don't think I'd be shocked if Downpour came back at $10-$15 from a sale or coupon deal.

There's also the 10% extra with PUR membership to consider, so you're looking at $44.20/$47.60 w/ PUR ($51/$54.40 for the 50% extra), a ~$14-$20 profit.

Seriously, though, as I said when I posted the 50% extra upcoming promo, there's obviously risk involved in waiting.

Also at least one achievement is no longer available in nba 2k12. Forget the name but it is the one that ties in with the actual games being played during the nba season

I tend to agree with this. In my case though, my NBA 2k disc was probably in the roughest shape of any of my games because I've used it an insane amount of times, taken it to friends houses, ect.

Plus I bought a copy of the Sims to take to GS with me. My $32 plus tax of BB credit got converted to $57.40 of GS credit. Plus the reason I did it...I got a fresh new copy of the best sports game ever, NBA 2k12.

Maybe they're just trying to transfer credit with minimal work . Obviously there are way better ways to transfer it but what can you do.

I've come to realize that $3 is a lot of money for some people on this forum. I'm not saying that that's good, and I'm not saying that that's bad; I'm just saying. So to each his/her own.

I'm of the philosophy that you do whatever you can to get by. To each his own is right. That being said, if 3$ is a lot to you, its probably wise to keep your mouth shut.

Some people on cag have no shame.

 

[MrshllJcb]

I didn't really have any interest in MLB ( I couldn't really enjoy The Show so figured this would be the same) but I really wanted NBA 2k12 and needed to grab my niece a $25 Itunes card. Used the MLB game to trade towards the Itunes card so now I can enjoy NBA 2k12 and my niece can buy lots of crappy music, win for all.

While I was at BB I also used the GCU promo to grab MW3 for PS3. This is the 3rs time I've had it and I might actually spend some real time with it, but without the actual coupon it didn't ring up right at first so might want to print it.

Can't say the same about the PS3 since I don't know, but there is no difference on the 360 versions.
