2K Sports’ Community Manager Ronnie 2K has posted the following on the official NBA 2K11 forums:
Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that the servers for 2K11 will be shutting down in the next few weeks, and could happen as early as 11/16. Keep this in mind when completing your achievements, etc. Thank you in advance.Ronnie
Certainly a shame for anyone who hasn’t upgraded to NBA 2K12. Despite the bad news, remember you can preserve your favorite 2K11 Share rosters and slider sets by uploading them to our Download Database.
Never looked up the stats, but this leads me to believe that 2k12 isn’t selling well. People didn’t upgrade due to the lockout, and they’re kind of pushing people to buy the new one.
