NBA 2K14 is the #1 Selling Sports Title on Next-Gen Consoles, 4th Overall

[JasonMartin]

Typical 2K sports to be proud of such a non-event.

The PS4 has been out for about a month and 1 week, the Xbox has been out for a couple of weeks. Then you factor in that most of the consoles are being sold in the USA in which the biggest and most popular sport is basketball (big surprise).

FIFA and Madden are available on the next gen but from what I've read they aren't developed from scratch like 2K is (at least madden isn't) but they do look good. So the competition is probably between 2K and FIFA.

Let's just wait until everyone in the world has the possibility to get a PS4/Xbox one since most of these aren't even available yet in Europe. You can get them but you have to order them from the bigger markets like Germany/France/UK.

I'm sure Fifa will catch up, since soccer is the most popular sport in the world.


It's like doing a 100 metres sprint against Usain Bolt while he's still tying his laces. Fair battle.

Little did they know that the game is like half finished :/

You say this like FIFA hasn't been selling over the yrs..it is way more popular then any sports title

Basketball is the most popular sport in the US. It's football, and it's not close either. I'm not sure what kind of undertone you were pitching with big surprise in parenthesis, but it doesn't seem appropriate.

It's very telling that 2K fans are posting mostly negative reactions to 2K's success here. It's not a good look that 2K's decisions and handling have actually turned their best supporters into rooting against them.

Well say 20 people on websites won't hurt 2k when 50 casuals buy it and i doubt those guys at 2k lose sleep over probably around 5-10% of the gaming community being negative when majority of it is positive
