This is the best basketball game available PERIOD. The graphics, gameplay and presentation are top notch, the only aspect that really needs work is the online aspect because the servers are mediocre and this affects some of the game modes, this has been an issue with NBA 2K games for years now and i don't understand why they haven't given this the attention it deserves because some people prefer to just play online and this really hinders their opinion on this game (what good are beautiful graphics and awesome gameplay if you can't even have a good online experience). But don't get me wrong, if you don't care about online play then go buy this game NOW, it really is one of the best basketball games ever made (not counting online play) and it's one of the most visually striking games of this new generation of consoles (XBOX ONE and PS4). If you really wanna show off what your new-gen (XBOX ONE and PS4) console can do graphics-wise then go buy this game NOW and invite your friends over so they can see what new-gen is all about!!! 1 star was knocked off of my review because of the poor state of the online servers as of now but the game itself not counting online play is worthy of 5 stars in my opinion and they might release a patch to improve the online play.

Another year, another polished basketball product. The 2k studios continue to push the envelope in the level of detail in the game, from exact player mannerisms and styles to capturing the intensity of a basketball game. I'm currently addicted to the myplayer mode, where you start off as an undrafted free agent and have to work you way into a team. A+

Overall, this edition is as expected. This is 2K's second year on the new generation consoles (XBox One & PS4), and it improves on most of the basics from last years game that early generation titles are constricted with. Pros: • MyCareer/MyPark - These two points are the highlights of the game in my opinion. You create a player and play out a career in the NBA. There is a story, which isn't great, but is a cool attempt to have an agent and real player voices interact with you. MyPark allows you to play with friends online using your player in 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5. These two modes have consumed almost all of my game time. • Gameplay - If you're an NBA fan, you understand how well of a simulation basketball game 2K games are. The ability to tweak the realism gives you a lot of control over what type of game you play. Cons: Game Modes - You can only play a season online with friends and can't do multi-year Associations which is a bummer. Online 2K Account - The future is sometimes rocky, and if you are disconnected from the internet you can't collect any coins for your account. (These coins are used to upgrade your stats or buy clothing/accessories). Overall it's hard to be disappointed with this years edition, unless you are really into Online Franchises but the MyPark features helped me forgot about my Fantasy Franchise days. Overall, it is good game, and looking back I would have made this purchase again.

Technically this game is awesome, excellent graphics great sound the animation of the players looks very realistic, career mode is pretty cool, this game has tons of features and I think it offers a very good value for the money, if you like basketball get this game you won't be disappointed.

This is the first time I bought this game on the new generation system and I am impressed. The game's graphics and fluidity are amazing. There are a ton of features such as franchise, create a player, street mode, etc. Rosters are updated pretty much daily; was surprised how fast they took away Lebron's headband when he stopped wearing them in real games. Games mechanics are great. Multiple ways to score, call plays, and make defensive adjustments. Best Buy purchase and delivery was smooth and quick.
