NBA 2k21 does not disappoint with all new features this year! New neighborhood is completely revamped with a beach atmosphere. There are still a few bugs, but overall a great game!

Great game for the family to participate in and even the grandparents are playing this game. I had been great watching the grandparents and my kids enjoy their time together.

NBA 2K21 Mamba Forever for the PS4 was purchased by me for my grandson and he paid for half with his allowance. He wanted the Forever Edition and he loves it!

It’s a excellent game to have but it’s better to practice now and wait to the new season start that way you can keep up and get better updates as the season goes on

It’s still pretty realistic. Has the customary 2K glitches. Much harder to shoot the ball seems like every year it’s harder and harder. Overall I love the Kobe Steel Book gift.

The shot stick and dribbling is amazing. The momentum you feel from big plays are felt. This game may go down as the greatest 2K of the generation. Great Work.

the NBA 2k21 mamba forever edition is ok to me if you own the NBA 2k20 you don't need to buy it right away its the same game with the worst shooting in NBA 2k ever.

Which is not a bad thing. Started playing 2k again last year and this year’s version is just as fun. If you enjoy the 2k series, you’ll enjoy this game

Graphics Didn't Improve much

Usually, new releases have better graphics. That's what I was looking for. They probably maxed out their limit to be able to make it work online. Maybe they saved it for the PS5 version so looking forward to the PS5 version to see better graphics.
The only change that's visible is that they changed shooting parameters but you can turn it off anyway and you're back to the previous version. Oh. they made changes to the online gaming by the beach but I dont play that so I wouldn't know.

Been a 2K fan since the beginning and can say this is one of the best. Nice that this version came with a free download for standard version on PS5.

You'd score more points than many historic NBA players just picking up the "Mamba Forever Edition" for any con-sole. Sneaker-heads out of reach with the day one collections in the closet ? Heck, show up barefoot to the gym, mall and playground making cats in Jordan's look like they ain't cuttin' their toenails, ... talkin' ... As long as Kobe Bryant is on the cover with your money, NBA days will always be sunny. Rest in trusting peace. Seriously.

The game is good and love the Mamba Edition cover. Bestbuy was perfect with the pick up process. Only thing is that 2K needs to fix the bugs in their game.
