The second patch for NBA 2k10 was just released for Xbox 360 yesterday Jan. 21st more than a week after the PS3s Jan. 11th release date. Still no word on why there was a delay but it’s safe to assume they found some issues during the approval phase. The patch aims to address multiple issues [...]

The first NBA 2k10 patch fixed up a lot of the mess and headaches that shipped at release but there’s still more to fix. Most complaints about the game have to do with the online experience. Laggy gameplay and broken leagues won’t win 2k10 any awards.
However 2k10 does flaunt pretty nice offline modes which continue [...]

After 2k Sports announced they had submitted their NBA 2k10 patches for Xbox 360 and PS3 earlier this week it was assumed the patches wouldn’t be available until next week. However, it looks like Xbox 360 owners will be lucky enough to receive the patch before PS3 owners. I guess the turnaround on Xbox Live [...]

Last night 2k issued this list of fixes coming in the first real patch of NBA 2k10. The patch is going through internal testing first and then will be sent to Xbox Live and PSN for approval. The patch should be out in about two and a half weeks. Judging from this extensive list the [...]

There have been many complaints posted on the 2k Sports official forums and a few of them I’ve found to hold true. I’m [...]

As expected the NBA 2k10 Demo was released on Xbox Marketplace today. The demo features one 4min quarter of the NBA Finals matching up the Lakers and the Magic once again. If you are an avid fan of the NBA 2k series you probably won’t notice much difference besides a graphic upgrade. Small details in [...]

Quick rant. I hate the fact that you can’t control the length of the simulated games in franchise mode. The simulated stats from other teams are just insane sometimes. I’ve seen a stat line where Drew Brees throws 6 TDs and runs for another. If I’m playing 5 minute quarters I’m lucky to have a [...]

*Update* As of 2/20/09 12:17pm all trade deadline roster updates are available for download.
