I'm DEFINITELY interested in this. While the online servers are worrisome, I'm still definitely interested in giving it a shot.
I'm in the process of creating a subforum for the Tailgate Basketball Assoication. Link to the forum and signup thread coming soon. This will be a 360 league.
Yeah man. For both Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlin. It's definitely pretty cool. They didn't show the 70s guys, but when you play with them, it has the cheesy ass giant yellow lettering and shit that they used to use as well.Originally Posted by JBHuskers
Only thing I'm disappointed in is it appears that they really missed how the games used to be shown with no information on the screen at all and you would only occasionally get updates on the score and such. There's actually too much presentation for it to accurately show the early years of the game.
Here is the link to the subforum for the Tailgate Basketball Association - currently settings discussion, a general talk thread, and signup thread are live.
So is it actually for the 360 or was that a typo? I will gladly sign up if 360.
Yup, it's for the 360.
Yep just scroll down to the dynasty section and go to the signup thread.
EDIT: Never mind you found it
when did this site become 360 friendly?
When it was almost all 360 guys talking about it on here....
That is why I was shocked and thought it was a typo.
IGN Review for those who might care.

Closing Comments
No sports game has ever made me this excited to play. Seriously it's all I've been able to think about for the last week. The realistic, challenging, gorgeously animated gameplay carries across a cornucopia of modes. Playing legends of the past, the stars of today, and my own personal NBA rookie are all different flavors of f#$%ing rad. Any one of these modes would be reason enough to purchase the game, but all of them together make for a game that any basketball fan has to pick up.
10 Presentation
The only way this could be more like an actual NBA broadcast would be if it locked the players out and canceled itself.
8.5 Graphics
Fantastic animations, beautiful stadiums, realistic crowds, all hindered by the too regular appearance of a few hideous character faces.
10 Sound
Hands down, the best commentary of any sports game ever. At times it surpasses actual NBA commentary. Dope soundtrack, too.
9.0 Gameplay
Some pretty minor AI weirdness is the only spot on an otherwise gleaming game.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
Between My Player, Association, NBA's Greatest, Creating a Legend, and the online modes, you'll be playing NBA 2K12 for the next 365 days.
9.5
OVERALL
Amazing
(out of 10)
Can't wait

And my copy is on it's way. Sitting in Indianapolis as of an hour ago.
You joining the league?
I signed up back on Friday. I posted that I wanted to take the Denver Nuggets as they're my favorite team. And if 2K12 is anything like 2K11, it's going to be ugly because I can't shoot the 3 or deep 2 for my life.
