Ok so he hasn’t played a game of NBA basketball in years but that isnt’ stopping 2K Sports from putting the legend that is Michael Jordan on the cover of its next game, NBA 2K11.  They sure know how to cater to the essence of every NBA gamer out there.  This is how you keep your game relevant.

“We’ve made a lot of progress over the past 10 years, but we know we have the best NBA video game ever made here,” Argent said. “So we thought to ourselves how can we embody that and there was only one person on that list who we wanted to have and that was Michael Jordan. Actually getting this done is the most ridiculous win of all-time.”

“Michael’s last appearance in a video game was in 2004 and over that time the video game industry had continued to grow,” said Estee Portnoy, Jordan’s business manager. “We had been hearing that there was demand from the gamers to have him in the game and this came along and made a lot of sense.”

Who’s ready to take MJ against the league’s best?
