NBA 2K11 came out last year and it was the most iconic sports titles to come out in a very long time. This is because Michael Jordan was featured as the cover athlete and the game focused heavily on Jordan’s whole career. NBA 2K12 has a hard act to follow but manages to improve on its predecessor and is a great game on its own right.

2K Sports seems to have pulled the plug on its old online servers. Users playing All-Pro Football 2K8, NHL 2K10, College Hoops 2K8 and the year-old NBA 2K12 multiplayer have noticed a lack of online support across the last three weeks.
... pulling the online MP from a game that's only a year old.
The box says it has an online MP mode, and I'm sure people are still playing 2k12 online (probably many people who aren't enthusiastic about the whole Jay-Z layer they vomitted over the game), so they should keep supporting the online MP mode for years to come.
That is real cheap on the part of 2K sports..I'm sure many people enjoyed playing 2K12 online and it just came out last year...
Why is this not illegal? When are games going to be treated seriously by the law? If this happened with anything else, people would be up in arms wanting blood.
I think the only fair thing to do is that when people buy these games, included in the sticker price is a bond. After the servers shut down, 2K (in this case) have to pay them the bond back, whether it be bank deposit or game credits.
I think next-gen developers are going to be doing this to many more games. It basically forces you to buy the newer one. Why people still buy these games is outstanding. Have they no freaking morals?
