    I play this everyday ! Best b-ball game ever. Knicks fans remember that season with Jeremy Lin? That was an epic year to be a knicks fan... and in this edition you can even go back to that year and play with J.Lin on the knicks. Sooo cool, the my career got revamped and requires a lot of grinding if you wanna ball with me. Bring it on, I been saying this since day 1: “Ball is Life”

    Great Game for the Sports Fan

    This game has amazing gameplay with realistic play from each specific player. Call out offensive plays and set your defense to your preference and play as your favorite team. Easy enough for the beginner but endless challenge for the expert to master the moves. Online play is pretty good but to be smooth you will need a fast internet connection.

    NBA 2K18 is a great game!

    The NBA 2K series is hands down the best basketball game series ever. Year after year this series put NBA Live to shame. The graphics are outstanding and I'm playing on a standard PS4 and on a 1080p plasma tv. I can't tell you how many times people have said they thought I was watching a real game. The graphics are awesome. The sound is excellent as well. You'll hear side commentary from people like Kobe Bryant talk about the game and what their experience was while they played. The commentators talk realistically about what they are "seeing" in the game and show emotion when big plays occur. The also give commentary on specific players and the amount of voice work is staggering. One thing I will say is that if you have played the last few games in the series, you will hear some things you have heard before. Don't get me wrong, the game does not recycle the same thing over and over, but when you play the game for hours, you're bound to hear some repetition. I think 2K need to up their game and add a little more during the next season. Game play is where it counts for any game and this is where NBA 2K just blows the competition away. The basic controls are fairly easy to grasp but the controls are deep. You'll need to invest a lot of time into mastering the controls to be able to pull off some of the fancier moves. Once learned, muscle memory kicks in but the process of learning all the moves beyond the basics will take some work. If you are a NBA basketball fan, this is your game, period. You need not look anywhere else.
