A score of 4.5=not playable if you ask me, and I just see how and gamer could consider any Madden, Live, or FIFA title not playable.

Honestly why put so much stock in what other people think anyway? Reviews are subjective, one person "great game" is another person "i'll pass." Here's an example that is completely backwards in my opinion, http://www.gamespot.com/bioshock-infinite/

http://www.gamespot.com/the-last-of-us/

Now i played and completed both games and there is no way Bioshock(9) should have got a better score then The Last of Us(8). But again, reviews aren't that important to me.

So there more than likely will be a first day patch to correct some of the "thin" body types we have seen in some of the gameplay vids.

That's the peculiarity. Anthony and Chandler had the same upper body build in Bugs gameplay captures. The HEAT/Warriors matchup was video from the 2k14 event held at least 2-3 weeks ago. The player models varied in that video. Why does Bugs game-play not resemble that.
Why would the (assumed) final build released for retail have worse player models than the build shown at an event held 2-3 weeks ago?

He wasn't stating the obvious, he was trying to convey the sentiments of a few people and stereotyped all those that have gave 2K14 some sort of praise. I went through this whole 12 pages of this thread so far and it's far from rainbows and sunshine comments about the game, the way it should be. I feel it was trollish comment as well. Because most of the people, if we were to review NBA 2K14 next gen, we wouldn't give a 10 neither. But we'll probably score it the same or one point higher than CG 2K14.

IMO, it deserves a higher score than Fifa 14 next gen. The Fifa reviewer stated that the game graphics are slightly better than CG and it plays nearly identical. So how can a 2K14 with substantially better graphics than it's CG counterpart and plays the similar as well, get a lower score? Like all reviews, it's the opinion of that person. Like I stated earlier, 8.9 still isn't bad at all, but it should have probably been slightly higher.

$128.38 for PS4 three games isn't bad at all.

Now you sound like a fanboy or just have selective amnesia. Live 06 xbox 360 was not playable.

All I ever asked for from the beginning was next gen graphics with current gen gameplay. 2K delivered and I'm a happy camper with the copy of PS4 NBA2k14 sitting right next to me...only a few more days fellas!

Why? Because the core gameplay even for its quirks is the best on the market right now.

And lol@ good riddance.

What exactly are you kicking me out of?
