NBA 2K12 or 2K13?

So, I'm thinking about grabbing one of the 2K NBA games, because I'm kind of craving some basketball, and haven't played any sports games in a long time, and basketball ones were my favorite way back in the day. I was doing a wee bit of reading about the differences between 2k13 and 2k12, and I'm lookin for insight. They're close to each other in review scores, both here, and on MC, but I'm kind of interested in the "NBA's Greatest" mode in 2k12, which says it does historical recreations of iconic old rivalries and careers. Is that as cool as it could be? And does 2k13 have anything like that?

Sounds like 2k12 is the way to go, eh? Yeah, I wasn't super stoked on the idea of Jay-Z's involvement with 2k13. I don't dislike Jay-Z, but I don't particularly like him, either.

So how's the "NBA's Greatest" historical mode or whatever? Is it sweet?

soo this is whats become of system wars now. a personal request for an opinion on a game.

I know. It's terrible. But system wars has the most regular posters. Therefore, most likely to get responses from people who have played the games in question, and get them fast.

2k11 or 2k13 brah

2k12 was frustrating as all hell

2K12 can be a buggy un playable mess, I don't know if it was the copy I had but it seriously wouldn't even play past the first game.

both r solid games but u would be waaaay better of grabbing 13. 12's d is atrocious at best. if u have any skill in the game and u like to play on h.o.f and simulation, 13 is completely better. i'm telling u now tho, players hit shots in both games that they have absolutely no business hitting. it's almost like the people at 2k have either never played or watched bball before.
