@RA
Let me look into it. I wish I had more time with the 2K review to talk about MyTEAM.
As of now, you could create a MyTEAM, which basically is a like EA's Madden or FIFA Ultimate Team. I know in the past reviews for games', I dislike those kind of modes because it's basically seen as a CASH GRAB or used to drain us poor saps a dollar here or there.
BUT, this mode is better ( NOT being 2k bias) because it is easier to form a competitive team of 5-7 basketball players versus fleshing out an entire 22 players starting line up like in Madden/FIFA.
So basically, you get a starter pack that includes several players, a coach, a couple of jerseys, a playbook and an arena. 2k then allows you to buy/sell those items in a marketplace setting to let you build your own fantasy team. Once the season starts, this marketplace will go live and it will reflect the actual player's performance with their VC cost. So it creates a buy low and sell high mentality for each player, so if a player is in a slump then you can buy him low cause you know he will eventually cost more in the future. Very exciting.
Also, they injected their MyTeam with a ROAD to the PLAYOFFS mode, which allows you to earn more "booster packs" to unlock more players, attributes or signature skills. I find myself playing this mode more and more, it is very addicting and very rewarding. As of now, I have a mixture of old school players and current B rated to C rated players.
Occasionally, you run into someone who purchased a SUPER TEAM (this is done by paying for VC to buy 20,000 VC/$6 dollars for PSN players like Lebron or Kobe)
BUT it's still FUN and challenging taking your B Squad against those SUPER teams. I took a team that consisted of D Rose, Eric Gordon, KD, Josh Smith and Anthony Davis to OT with my B level squad.
Right now, my goal is to recreate the Argentina squad, and I can't wait to see how this mode grows.

@jack burton Thank you, I'm soo tired of people bitching about that.
@VideaVice Jay-Z has nothing to do with that, that's all 2k, he only in charge of the production of the music in the game.

Jay Z, I have nothing against the guy okay why not... but what the fuck JUSTIN BIEBER is doing there. Why this asshole is associated with the NBA franchise. WHY? Can anyone help me to understand? God this world is almost done!

If you hate Jay Z {Or the games playlist}, The game lets you use your custom soundtrack! The game itself is as good as it gets. They do take away offline multiplayer seasons. And you and your friend can't all have created players on one profile. So the only way to play through a season with friends is online.
