Yo, this looks crazy. 2K Sports just announced available this holiday season will be a new add-on mode for NBA 2K12 game called Legends Showcase. It’s going to cost you some change though as the downloadable content will be available for $9.99 on the Playstation Network and 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live.

Legends Showcase featuring a new, cell-shaded art style set in New York City’s iconic Time Square, allows gamers to select from more than 150 of the NBA’s all-time greatest players, including Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Dr. J, and compete in authentic pick-up games from 1-on-1 up to 5-on-5. Legends Showcase also features mini-games, such as 21 and H-O-R-S-E, along with other new features like the 2-on-2 Teammate Challenge and 3-on-3 Era Challenge. Gamers can also unlock current NBA players to create unique match-ups between legends and current stars. Finally, for the ultimate challenge, gamers can bring their My Player into the mix and battle the legends of the NBA to see how they stack up against the best ever.

As a bonus, the standard Quick Game matchup will open up in the main game and you’ll be able to ball online with NBA’s Greatest teams in a regular simulation setting.
