NBA 2K9 PC version coming October 21

Electronic Arts may have decided not to release an NBA basketball title for the PC this year but 2K Sports apparently saw an opening as they officially announced plans to release their own pro basketball game, NBA 2K9, to the PC platform. The console versions ship to stores this week and the PC version ships to stores on Oct. 21.

This is the first time any 2K Sports title has been ported over to the PC. 2K Games claims, "The PC version will please even the most dedicated basketball fans with the same level of quality simulation we've become known for in the console versions of the NBA 2K franchise." It should be interesting to see if this port is successful for 2K Sports as they might bring other games like NHL and their Major League Baseball franchise to the PC.

Rad. The more pc games the better. I doubt I'll pick it up though. I never have been much into sports games though something like this might be a good change of pace now that I think about it.

Coooool 2K9 on PC...I've been wanting to play 2K but since gaming consoles get easily outdated (after a few couple of years, a new one comes into action, and your older gaming console gets fewer games) so I never buy myself one. I just upgrade my pc. It's cheaper than buying a $400 gaming console (*ahem* ps3 *ahem*).Posted at 11:38AM on Oct 13th 2008 by Neil
