This is ridiculous 2K(Dwight Howard for 2k10 Finals Edition!)

[ibe3zy]

Wow! You guys picked Kobe who's been on over 5 basketball video game covers. Plus everybody expected kobe to get the cover as your new agenda is to pick the person most likely to win the championship. I hope Dwight Howard just takes this as more motivation just as he took Mo Williams' guarantee and wins the championship. And when they do, i hope you guys look at your cover with the most insecure player in the NBA and realize how dumb this decision was. Then you guys will probably make up for it and create a NBA2K10 Finals edition with Dwight on the cover. 2k becomes more and more predictable every year. At least EA is smart enough to wait longer to make a decision so they don't look as dumb.
2K =Fail.....Again

shut up. get off howards ****

Wow! You guys picked Kobe who's been on over 5 basketball video game covers. Plus everybody expected kobe to get the cover as your new agenda is to pick the person most likely to win the championship. Plus, you guys have Kobe in a Knicks jersey for the cover(the stupidity in this is self explanatory.If you dont get how dumb this sounds then you need serious help). I hope Dwight Howard just takes this as more motivation just as he took Mo Williams' guarantee and wins the championship. And when they do, i hope you guys look at your cover with the most insecure player in the NBA and realize how dumb this decision was.

DUDE - D12 was on the cover of NBA ballers.

[Shady BTD]

shut up. get off howards ****

Straight up.

[supercrazym]

Kobe was on the cover of Nba09 whats ur point ?

[ibe3zy]

DUDE - D12 was on the cover of NBA ballers.

one wack game big whoop,
Kobe had his own N64 games plus about 3 more Sony basketball games plus he was on Nba 09 with all those other players

[ibe3zy]

My point is that 2K should've gone with Howard because throughout the entire season/post season he has proved that his name should pop up whenever someone is discussing basketball, not just Kobe and Lebron who get all the attention.

[MarkL4L]

Who cares?

The important thing is whats inside the game.

And I think Kobe being on the cover would sell more. Specially in Asia.

[supercrazym]

I agree i was thinking Dwight was going to be on the cover not lame Kobe.

[ibe3zy]

mannn 2k goes where the bandwagons go........Kobe or Lebron

[LeBronJamesMVP]

mannn 2k goes where the bandwagons go........Kobe or Lebron

calm down. my god. its a game cover

[NYBballa621]

Haha yea man. During the Olympics the Asians where flipping out with Kobe.

[ibe3zy]

I guess you cant get everything right

o well Kobe hater mode off*

[RJ-Kidd19]

Dude shut up its a video game , its not that serious. Where ever the bandwagon is ,is were that money is at so it dont really matter. The knicks jersey was a joke, dummies these days. Get a life.

[oldskool716]

Kobe was on the cover of Nba09 whats ur point ?

he wasn't the cover athlete of that game. that was just copy and paste pics put on a cover, since they couldn't afford to get all of those guys as cover athletes at the same time. he was the cover athlete of nba 07 though.

[Smith146]

I honestly thought Dwight was going to be on the cover. I don't mind having Kobe on the cover at all but the commercial I thought was poorly done. I know it was with Spike Lee and everything but went way too far about the Knicks and then Kobe in a Knick jersey. Terrible idea.

[ZAYWIZZLE]

I mean kobe has alot of cheesers in this game (2k9). If the same amount of people who play with the lakers play with the magics then d12 will be on the cover. I guess 2k is going 2 start going with the most valuable cheesers.

[rocboyz101]

how bout we get rid of cheese..?

[opg4]

I bet if King James goes and plyes for the *icks I mean the Knicks U ibe3zy will be on his jock, Its a game cover quit hating, Damn Kids!!!

[NYCDaFuture4sho]

Lmao get off howard nuts fo real b.

Magic lost by 25pts ez. Could any1 stop Kobe today??? Nope. If u haters wanna keep denyin dat Kobe aint ish den so b it while he gets his 4th ring lol. Kobe is da best player= 2k10 will b da best gm since 2k as of now is da best basketball gm Ya Dig. Holla Early

And that's the truth!!! Kobe was white hot in Gm 1!!!! and where was howard??? in the middle of 3rd qtr he only had 1 (!!!!!) successfull FG!!! that is no way for a superstar to play in the Finals!!! with the game he showed Staples centre, i can't see magic even putting a fight up for Lakers....I'm a lakers fan, but i don't want the series to go 4 games only.. i wanna c them fight for those damn rings!!!!

[walkermi2k5]

F**king HATERS....I tell you! It doesn't make no sense about what you just said! One of the most insecure players in the NBA WHAT? Are u serious? I can't even believe that! Dude.....do you even watch basketball??? Have you seen his game play lately! WHAT IN THE HELL is so insecure about his game actually? Can you answer me that? B cuz he proved time and time again thru these play-offs that he's a team player/facilitator and can be a dominate scorer at the same time. Don't get me wrong.....Dwight is a great player, superb center, all around defense and everything.....but you can't sit there and honestly believe that Kobe doesn't deserve all this love that he is currently getting right now. He done worked his ***** off over the years for all this respect and publicity he's getting right now. Has he not? He's never gotten this much love ever.....even in the Shaq-era....and especially post-Shaq era. With all the accolades he has accomplished in 13 years.....you're honestly telling me that he doesn't deserve to even grace 2K10's cover! Please.....:noagree: :bark::bow:

PS....i'm not even mad about the cover talks! Its not even about the cover! I'm just trippin' over the fact that you tried to play KB like he's a Scott Pollard or something! :thumbsdow

Damn get em, they want stop its well know fact that hate only comes when greatness dominates.

[CASE FILE 24]

its just a cover damn cmon relax brah, what matters whats in the game .. I can careless if greg oden was on the cover, cover aint a really big deal to me.. I just want the gameplay to improve and other stuff ya noe

[underated_pg16]

I'm still amazed at how people are so sensitive about just a stupid case cover. I mean it's not like they have Kwame Brown or Darko Milicic on the cover to represent the NBA!

[brainnysmurfs]

This is so funny, why? because of this cover drama... I'm starting to think, "do they hug their favorite cover games when they go to sleep?" Cmon! Like Case File 24 said its all about the gameplay

[kjeebs9]

Daaammm He sounds really ticked off that Kobe is on the cover.

[ZAYWIZZLE]

You must be a kobe cheeser

[2K Admin Ron]

Should he have got some consideration? Sure... we gave him plenty. We also considered many others. But Kobe represents what we wanted to do this year in our anniversary year. No disrespect to Dwight, but Kobe has been the best basketball player (and those who know me know I haven't liked the Lakers since Shaq left) on the planet for most of the last 10 years. Really that simple.

can u tell us who all got consideration im curios. im fine as long as cover number 3 wins cuz other oones are stupid. but i jus wannna know who u guys took into consideration

[hrlmstar]

You must be a kobe cheeser

yea im a kobe cheeser that hasnt played 2k9 online since like january

clown

[LeBronJamesMVP]

^^then how u in 3 lgs if u havent played since january

[rocboyz101]

Well from research(clickin on the lg pages), 1 has been deleted, and the other 2 haven't been started..

[pooh_wade816]

Man, it only made sense from mid-season that Kobe or LeBron was gonna be the cover athletes for the games this year. I actually went w/ Kobe for 2K10 cuz so guy said LeBron had Live cover. But, it was hands down Kobe for 2K10 if LeBron got Live. The #1 & #2 players in the world!!! The Vitamin Water ads!!! The Nike ads!!! Hell, they were suppose to meet up in the Finals, but I guess you can only fix certain things to a limit w/o it lookin too fixed

[pooh_wade816]

First of all, why is everyone thinkin just because you been on one cover of a game that you can't be on another brand??? Ya'll make it seem like they signed a contract sayin, "I can never grace the cover of a video game brand outside of this one" Its only a one time thing...

[2K Admin Ron]

Telling you might give way too much inside into next years. But let's just say there were an assortment of several multi-time allstars, some absolutely emerging studs, and hall of fame locks.

Like I said, I doubt Lebron is going to get a cover this year.

[crazygirl84]

Lebron probably wants too much money lol but Why wouldnt kobe get the cover and he has only been on 5 covers and he been in the league 13 years lol I thought Dwight would have gotten it maybe he gotta accomplish a lil more b4 he start getting covers and by da way he played last night.....lol

[Ivan/#4\Boboshko]

jeez, guyz!!! i mean, i didn't think that kobe will b on the cover!!! i though that would b amazing, but probably not true...

me personaly, i considered dwight, lebron & rose... but since kobe gets it - awesome!! and even lebron's kids love kobe more than their father!!

[CapZLoCk87]

Who cares?

The important thing is whats inside the game.

And I think Kobe being on the cover would sell more. Specially in Asia.

Yea soon well have Yao, and Yi JianLi as a cover...they are mega cheesy in the game just to sell more in Asia, so cover + cheesy players would be great for 2k

[ad2084]

Kobe and D Howard are good choices so you get no loss in Kobe being on the cover of this game.

[eye guy]

I'm picking Orlando to take it this year, even after that blowout in the first game, but having Kobe on the cover would probably shoot sales through the roof. I play pick-up ball with a philippino dude who has 09. His favourite player is Kobe, and three of his mates feel the same.

So, I think it's a good move from a Marketing point of view, combined with the positive reviews this game recieves every year as the No#1 bball sim.

[NeSeNVi]

I think it would be too fast for Dwight Howard... but in the future, who knows?:) It depends on himself:p

[CDWJUSTIN]

wow man chill seriously ibe3zy = fail what are you Howards butt buddy or something let it go man just let it go... seriously go take a nap with your booty buddy dwight and let it go

[kguanga]

Thanks 2K! Kobe and NBA 2K are the best, consistent, players in their market. No one else comes close!!! Los Angeles Lakers, 2008-2009 NBA Champions. Count on it!

[Ballin Fah Lyfe]

Dwight Howard would of been a great cover athlete imo... but you are right, they definately should of waited longer to make their decision... I mean, at least put a Dwight Howard cover as one of the options for the cover poll, but instead put Kobe in a Knicks jersey just for fun? That's a slap in the face, clearly...

[ibe3zy]

i love how i only suggested that D12 should've been the cover athlete and the Kobe bandwagon attacks me as if i provided a full fledged argument supported with facts and statistics proving how kobe is the worst player of all time......
