Na, it's some phone shop, but I think they sell games. If you live in the area, go over by 116th from 3rd to Lex. There's a # of little shops that sell games(116st 3rd ave to lex), prob most of them have the game already. Also, there's Game Express(120th and 3rd), I'm not sure if GE sells games early though.

I don't even live in the Bronx, but just check out some of the mom-and-pop/cell phone stores. I don't know which ones, but check any that's "in your way". They might have it.

  • People complaining about Overall ratings. Overall ratings. Let me say it again. Overall ratings. Not the dribble, passing, or even the 3pt rating, but the overall rating. Never in my life have I seen so many people just...mentally breakdown (IE going crazy) after seeing " Overall: #"

  • Second of all, this is not Madden. In Madden, key attributes are lowered or upped just so that the players Overall will "seem" right. This affects the core of the game (such as having a reciever not known for speed getting a signifcant boost in speed just so that his Overall will jump higher). Basketball is an entirely different sport. Skills are highly specialized and as such it is much easier to be effective with a relatively lower rated player, unlike in Madden.

  • Thirdly, these are the same people that played the demo. The people who actually used Dirk, exclaimed he played exactly like him....then turned around and said his Overall should be higher!? What effect would that have? So Dirk plays prime KG defense now? Is that it?

  • People comparing across positions. Why...in the hell...would you compare a SF to a PG? Or a PG to a C? What are you trying to determine? Different ratings matter more for different positions. This shud've immediately occured to some of you. It does no good to compare Dwight Howard to Lebron when one plays Center and another plays Small Forward. Good lord! Every single rational thought just seemed to left the thread once the word "Overall" was introduced

    (Not you guys who understand, just wanted to be clear.).

  • Lastly, the fact that a majority of posters will ignore this post and continue on in ignorance. UGH.

everyones complaining about overall ratings & specific shooting ratings is always funny to me!!!

OVERALL RATINGS TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL ABILITIES!!!

some players OVERALL is low because they are good or great in only particular categories. in those instances they probably have a high rating in those PARTICULAR areas that they excel in (Dirk 99 mid-shot & 85 overall - Bargnani 67 overall & high shooting ratings)

the overall is also weighted by certain abilities pertaing to their position. so softer, non-rebounding, face-up shooting bigs' overalls' will be lower than expected if they are playing center or PF because they lack the other skills tht are weighted to those positions. consequently if you moved them to SF you would see their overall changed higher due to the fact SF ratings are weighted by shooting & more athletic ratings.

same thing goes for the guards that people are complaining about... Rose's OVERALL is high because OVERALL he has a LOT of great abilities (defensive, speed, quickness, iq, decent shot)...

VERY ANNOYING when people think someone deserves high ratings just because they can score. (its a microcosm of the world & sports today... basketball is more than scoring & highlight dunks & blocks)

tendencies & actual in game play matter far more than OVERALL RATING... play a game where Jason Kapono is left open often & watch how he will roast you just like he should... all while having a 64 overall...

all that being said... 2k DOES seem to skew the hell out of other areas & ratings but for the most part i complain about the way they render tendencies (which is what truly alters in-game play)

overall ratings affect rotation & importance in association mode

tendencies affect in-game play

if you want Brgnani's overall higher, ur gonna have to make him a MUCH better rebounder & post defender than he actually is & if you want Rose to be lower, you're gonna have to make him slower & dumber than he actually is.
