They did, they retired his number this season in their home game against the Lakers.

It's marketing purposes. Shaq played for many different teams. It would only be genius to have shaq cover in the multiple jerseys he played for

That's cool. I wish it was the normal cover though. I bought the Kobe special edition last year, but I doubt I buy another special edition of any game. Most times it feels like a waste of money afterwords. Just give me the normal game.

(bleep) 2k, those (bleep) marketing geniuses. I was happy with my Kobe cover and wasn't going to bother with 2k18, but now I have no choice but to get the Shaq cover to pair up with Kobe.

Holy crap. I expected the $80 and $100 pricing from last years special edition. I see it is now $100 and $150(Laker Shaq cover). That is insane. Also the $150 version is only at gamestop so you can't even use the Bestbuy/amazon's 20% off thing on it.

Yea I think sticking to the normal edition is the way to go lol. $48 shipped from Bestbuy on release day.

Just like 2K17 and 2K16 because the fans don't uproar like they do for Mass Effect's graphics.
