    Unlike past years 2K Sports has decided to restrict filming of NBA 2K13 at the Gamescom conference. That hasn't prevented all video from getting out though with a handful - one real brief and the other two more substantial - still sneaking through. Keep in mind of course this is off-screen footage so the quality is not ideal to judge from but it does provide the first opportunity to see the game in action since a short display of a much earlier build back during E3.

    Ever since the announcement of the "Infinity Engine" physics for Madden NFL 13 the demo took on greater importance than usual. A consumer base that has grown skeptical of EA Sports and their touting of new features would need not just to see it in action but feel its presence for themselves to make judgment on. There is a lot more in the way of improvements to Madden 13 but that would be the big one in swaying perception. My initial feeling on the implementation was quite positive and it has...

    2K Sports has just announced that The Dream Team will be included in NBA 2K13 as will the recent gold medal winning 2012 team. The two will be pitted against each other in the game. Charles Barkley, who has remained a holdout of the 2K series, made it in (but only on the Dream Team and not with any classic teams) while Scottie Pippen for some reason has gone missing. Even though the prime opportunity to announce the inclusion of The Dream Team and 2012 team would have been about a month a...
