Wow, I'm super impressed with this game.
I haven't played a pro basketball game since NBA 2K6 when I became disillusioned with basketball. Now that my interest is back, I had to buy this game as I loved playing the 2K games back in the day.
This is just a phenomenal experience- I'm playing 12 minute quarters and having a great time, I've never been able to stomach playing quarters that long before. It's rewarding to see Kobe do a pull up jumper and drain it. It's also great to see my Knicks get shredded on defense. The commentary is outstanding, the presentation really is top-notch (pressbook photos are gorgeous).
I was hooked to College Hoops 2K7 and thought that was the best that videogame basketball has to offer but I was wrong- this is the best basketball game I have played... period. Too bad the Knicks are awful
