The torch is passed effectively and efficiently from one generation to the next only improving the NBA's product on your gaming console.
Gameplay:5
Fluid animations and near perfect ball and player physics. Intuitive controls that are deep without being too deep can quickly bring any skill level of gamer into the mix.
Graphics:5
The best sports game that has ever been seen. The players look like their real life counter parts . The crowd is alive with vigor. The shine of the lights that reflect upon the court will have you in awe and even the backboards are astonishingly beautiful. This one will have wives and girlfriends everywhere thinking you're just watching television.
Plot:3
The story really is laughable and cheesy most of the way through, but shows promise. 2K has the most opportunity to carry this franchise even higher by further developing MyCareer
Sound:4
Commentary is spot on and very relevant to what is going on. Real NBA player voices add a level of realism never experienced before. Arena sounds and a great soundtrack bring it all together very nicely. Muted players that speak to you in text rather than audibly in MyPlayer career is a disaster.
