This game is much better on Xbox One X than the regular PS4. I bought it on PS4 before the Xbox was released and it was down right awful. This version isn’t 5 star but it’s an exciting play.

I must say, this is not your typical cliché of a basketball game. The graphics are great and had a constant flow without any lag.

Really enjoy the my player campaign. Ads a unique open world aspect to the game. Only complaint is after every major action it takes quite a while for the game to get back to a menu screen.

2k18 is a triumph on the gameplay end but a disaster in other areas.
The on-court gameplay is great. They did away with canned animations and as a result everything is smooth and fluid. It also helps that the graphics are noticeably improved.
However, 2k18 crosses the line with its VC, or Virtual Currency.
VC is needed for pretty much everything you do in the MyCareer/MyPark/ProAm mode, whether it's upgrading your character's attributes or getting him a haircut or a headband. The problem is that the VC you earn while playing the game is not nearly enough. So unless you want to endlessly grind away (and earn a meager amount), you'll have to buy additional VC. It's not required that you buy anything, obviously, as with any microtransaction. But the game is built around VC, so not having it means you don't truly get the whole experience (at least not within a reasonable amount of time).
The MyCareer story mode is pure cringe. If they really want to go the narrative route, they're going to need better writers. This also applies to MyGM, which was quite disappointing (thankfully MyLeague is still an option).
It's such a shame because at its best, NBA 2K18 is a great game. Yet I hesitate to recommend it. I'd wait for a price drop for this one, or buy it used.

This game is awesome. I don't know why NBA Live would try to compare. This game has all the features you want in a NBA Game.

My career mode is legit, but I recommend having Xbox Live Gold membership so you can play at parks and at the Pro-Am

Son loves the game but maybe a few to many advanced features for a basketball game. The shot bar is pretty small and takes awhile to get good at taking a decent shot.
