Jordan reminds me of a bearded Carter...

Pretty cool, actually I wasn't sure if there would be a 2K12 with NBA and NBPA licensing issues so that's good news.

Here's my dilemma: I already have a Jordan cover from 2K11. And while I'm not really a big fan of any of these guys, which one would I choose? Leaning towards Bird, because eff the Lakers.

I may get this. Would have been cool to have an old School Shaq on the Magic cover though.

It could also be argued that Dirk should've got the cover. It was really cool last year when they put MJ on the cover as it has been current players for a while gracing the front, but I kind of wish they went back to the current players format.

Glad there's a game coming out, first of all. I'll try to get the Magic or Bird cover(even though I skipped 10 and 11) , since Jordan had it last year. They all look pretty good though! I wish Nash got one(haha).

I think the reason they have to stick with legends is that they can't use the current players because of the lockout. Same thing on the main NBA page(no current players' pictures).

Larry Bird for me. I've always been proud of the fact that I was born in LA but never really liked them to now a hater.

Read on the 2k forums more old school teams to play with, including the 2006 Suns.

That would be great.

I think I'm going to try and nab a Larry Bird cover. Hopefully they release them online because we will on'y be getting the Jordan cover here in Australia.

Definitely grabbing the Larry Bird cover

I may have to get the Magic one, I dunno if I could take Larry Bird's ugly face looking at me every day.

It would be better if they put in the '93 team, hopefully they put it in the DLC. I wanna post up on fools with CB34, take it through the lane with KJ, and rain threes all over with Thunder Dan :pray:
