My NBA 2k11 keeps freezing at the press start page.

Is your disc damaged?

have you tried reinstalling the game? if not, do so. Also check if your video card can support a high ressolution game like nba 2k11. If you can go to your video option setting try to lower your standard video setting to the lowest possible.

Download NO CDVD EXE from here
Then extract
and replace the exe fiel with the game exe file which is located in C:/program files/Ea sports/ Nba 2k11
Replace it and Play the Game..

Could be both. If that only happens while playing NBA then it's a bad disc, check it for any scratches. If disc is fine you should go and replace it.

You may have corrupt game save files. You want to try deleting the ones specific to 2k11.

You can play without being logged in to the PlayStation network. I had the same problem but I don't know how to fix it completely because when I log in it freezes.

Restarted NBA 2K11 on PS3 and appears frozen on screen with message Checking HDD space. Installed new NBA 2K11 disk and won't run beyond "press start" icon

If you legitimately purchased the retail version of NBA 2K11, you should have the cd key code written on the inside of your game's box. Each key code is unique, so you would have to purchase your own copy of the game to get one, no one can give you theirs.

Check your PS3 for dust, if you see signs of dust, then vacuum the vents from 4 inches away. Dust is a big problem with the ps3.
