NBA 2K13

If you’re interested in picking up NBA 2K13 for the Xbox 360 but don’t feel like heading out to the store to pick up a physical copy, good news! The game is now available on Xbox Live Games on Demand at a cost of $59.99, with a download size of 7.76 GB. More info on the On Demand version and other NBA 2K13 content available through Xbox Live can be found here.

While the Xbox 360 version does not offer the same modding capabilities as the PC version, it utilises Virtual Currency, includes features that were ultimately stripped from the PC version and has already received the official patch with gameplay and game mode fixes. You won’t get the All-Star Weekend DLC unless you pre-ordered the game or pick up the Dynasty Edition, however it remains to be seen whether or not the content will be released as a standalone purchase through Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network, possibly around the time of the actual 2013 All-Star Weekend in Houston.

Start off your weekend of NBA 2K13 gaming with some new updates from our talented modding community! Today we have an arm texture fix for P.J. Carlesimo, new interim head coach of the Brooklyn Nets, along with a new pack of converted faces, an update to the Denver Nuggets’ Pepsi Center and a new face for Tobias Harris. Pick them all up at the links below.

2K Sports in conjunction with Sprite have released a new video promoting a code for “The Sprite Effect” in NBA 2K13, which features LeBron James taking on…LeBron James. Enter the code spriteeffect in NBA 2K13’s Codes menu to activate an automatic +3 boost to your MyPLAYER’s ballhandling abilities.

You can watch the promo below or check it out here on our YouTube channel if you can’t see the embedded video. Will you be using the code, or do you feel that a minor boost is still too much of a cheat? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to join in all of the NBA 2K13 discussion that’s taking place here in the NLSC Forum.

I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season and has been having a great time with family and friends, and of course, basketball video games. Quite a few members of our modding community have remained fairly busy throughout the festive season, as we have several new and updated files for NBA 2K13 today including rosters, faces, courts and a custom Draft Class. There’s also the initial release of a 2012 London Olympics mod, so be sure to check out the latest additions at the links below!

We have a couple of general file additions for you today. The first is a new tool by Leftos, Find That Hex, which allows you to find non byte-aligned hex data in a file. This is particularly useful for finding the offsets for data in NBA 2K13’s roster files, which in turn allows Leftos to add more features to the NBA 2K13 Roster Editor. For more info on that, see this thread. The second file is a pack of dorna reference shots from 1990-2000, which is particularly useful if you’re making retro arena updates. You can pick them both up at the links below.

2K Sports have pushed through a new official roster update for NBA 2K13, accurate as of December 25th 2012. It doesn’t appear as though the rosters include many changes at all, though since new shoes have been pushed through – specifically the Kobe 8s, LeBron Xs and KD Vs in Christmas colourways – the new rosters have assigned them to their respective players. They are also accessible through the 2K Shoes menu.

The latest update will come through automatically for the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U versions of NBA 2K13, as long as your computer or console is connected to the Internet. PC users may alternatively choose to make use of our manual update pack, which I’ve updated with the latest roster and online data files.

Beginning today and running through January 1st 2013, all Virtual Currency packs for the console versions of NBA 2K13 are 50% off. VC can be used to purchase upgrades for your MyPLAYER, as well as outfit them with new clothes and gear. For online gamers, VC is also used to purchase new players in MyTEAM.

Speaking of new outfits for MyPLAYERs, 2K Sports have just added the Adidas Winter Court Collection to the MyPLAYER store, which includes this year’s crop of holiday themed jerseys. PC users may have also seen the notification of the new gear, however seeing as though the PC version lacks Virtual Currency and the custom MyPLAYER wardrobe, it’s a notification that can be ignored.

As per this post, the digital version of NBA 2K13 PC will be on sale for $14.99 US through Amazon on Christmas Day. If you haven’t picked up the game yet and are thinking of doing so, it’s a good opportunity to save a few bucks and if you’ve got a fast Internet connection, you’ll be able to start playing it the same day. Thanks to benji for the heads up on the deal in the NLSC Forum.

Deals like this also provide a good opportunity for console players to find out what the PC modding community is all about. You can see our community’s work in the NBA 2K13 section of our Downloads database, as well as the Releases & Previews section in the Forum. I also invite you to check out my review of the PC version here and to join in all of the NBA 2K13 discussion that’s taking place here in the Forum.

Realistic sliders from Albys, updated fictional Draft Classes, face updates for missing players, high quality courts and arenas and a 2007/2008 season roster; that’s what you’ll find in today’s batch of file additions for NBA 2K13. With the latest additions, we’ve now topped the 400 file mark for NBA 2K13, already giving us more than half the number of files for NBA 2K12 in our database. A huge thanks once again to everyone who has made use of our upload facilities so far!

A new official roster containing lineups updated through December 21st 2012 has been pushed through for the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U versions of NBA 2K13. The rosters will come through automatically as long as your computer or console is connected to the Internet, though PC users may also choose to update their game manually using this pack, which contains the latest rosters and online data files.

The latest update also includes the Kobe 8 ID shoes, which carry a +5 Strength boost. Kobe is wearing the shoes by default in the new rosters and they can also be accessed via the NIKEiD menu.

The Wii U version of NBA 2K13 has received the official patch (v1.02) that was made available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game last month. The patch contains several tweaks, fixes and updates for gameplay, MyCAREER and Association, and will be pushed through automatically as long as your console is connected to the Internet. For a laundry list of all the fixes, please see below.

There is still no word on the patch for the PC version, beyond Ronnie 2K’s speculation that the PC will be receiving a combined update once all the planned updates for the console versions have been released.
