I've played 2K every year since the Dreamcast - but this is the first time I ever played MyPlayer. I'm not gonna lie - I got hooked. Here's my recap
The Good- Created a 6'11" athletic center from Cornell. Went 12th in the draft - after Jackson Ellis
- Playing as center - i dominate the ball on almost most possessions - and I don't ever call for the ball. As soon as I post up my teammates are looking for me. I have now figured out where to go - how to move. In a good flow.
- 32 pts & 2.4 blocks per game. My shooting % is .653 ...needless to say I am Rookie of the Year.
- Drafted by by Blazers - but did the "trick" to get to my Knicks. Best decision ever - although the Blazers went on to have the best record in the league
- I have dominated Jackson Ellis every time I face him - minus the rookie showcase
- Made All Star team, and all NBA and defensive squads.
The Bad- The cutscenes are great - but not being able to skip them pretty much means I will only do this one time.
- My team at times plays defense that make me want to kill kittens. I couldn't be more frustrated.
- The Dynamic goals are often inappropriate and anti - team. For example - you want me to score 10 straight points? So I should ignore the open man under the basket so I can get "mine"?
- Why - oh WHY - can't Dorris ever interview ME after the game? I score 62 and you interview Tyson Chander when he scored 4 points?
The Ugly- Jackson Ellis dropped 45 on me in the rookie showcase. This was on Rookie difficulty at that. That was disturbing. (I've since moved up to HOF level)
- The drama is too scripted. Takes away from the fun at times.
- The Super agent is a real jerk
