Somehow, NBA 2K13 has managed to have a three-stage cover reveal. First, there were the stars. Then the cover added in Jay-Z as an executive producer, right there under the logo. Now, as first noticed by 360sync.com, we see the Xbox 360 box art, and notice it says āBetter with Kinect.ā
Sports simulations so far havenāt fallen into the trap with Kinect that some did with PlayStation Move (including NBA 2K12, folding in casual motion-control schemes or mini-games that seemed to use a motion controller simply because it was there. If NBA 2K13 is using Kinect, Iād expect this to involve voice commands and very little else. Iāve not heard anything official but itās reasonable to think Kinect will let you call for a ball or tell a teammate to shoot in the āMy Playerā career mode, or to change defenses or run a play in any of the team modes. FIFA 13 is already confirmed as doing these sorts of things.
When reached by Kotaku, a 2K Sports representative declined to comment.
