  gameassault.com - NBA 2K Review
Despite these complaints, the core gameplay in NBA 2K is simply excellent, and I prefer it to any other hoops game I've tried.

NBA 2K seems to confirm that Visual Concepts' success with NFL 2K was not a fluke, as they've created yet another game that is an excellent representation of the real-life sport.

NBA 2K6 also builds on one of the deepest franchise-style modes available in any hoops title, the "Association" mode, by adding in-season scouting and recruiting, eliminating the negative components of practices, and generally tightening things up and making them feel more integrated.
NBA 2K6 offers solid game mechanics, although it can still be just a bit easy to win, and the AI of the teammates you don’t control leaves something to be desired.
NBA 2K6 offers plenty of modes, has improves its game-sim mode from last year, and is still paired up with my favorite college basketball title, College Hoops 2K6.

 NBA 2K - GameCritics.com
NBA Live 2000 for the PC is the only competitor that comes even remotely close.
Foul calls are, again, very loyal to the NBA model and will almost always reward the offense driving valiantly to the basket with the occasional cheesy charging violation.
Scores do tend to get pretty high due to the quick pacing, but this should be expected of any games unless the human players have the fortitude to carefully trot to the ball upcourt the way they do in real life.

NBA 2K is an astonishing piece of work that will mean great things for the developers, the Dreamcast and the videogame industry in general.
The first thing about NBA 2K that smacks you in the face is that the game's visuals are so realistic VC was able to create a killer intro movie using in-game graphics in place of the usual full motion video.
In NBA 2K, the realism has been advanced to the point where the players' eyes actually dart back and forth during gameplay, scanning the court for fast break opportunities or charging power forwards to get in the way of.

 NBA 2K8 Sony Play Station 3 Video Game Review by AceGamez
NBA 2K8 is no different - although the engine has seen little more than progressive tweaks and minor upgrades over the years, the foundations on which NBA 2K has been built upon have always been first class.
With NBA Live 07 being a disastrous step backwards for the series, it's completely understandable that 2K Sports decided not to rock the boat for this instalment, instead opting to again build upon what was already an excellent title.
The day that 2K sports have to completely revamp their NBA title probably isn't all that far away, but for the time being this more than suffices; the animations are breathtaking, the gameplay as solid as ever and the list of game modes is as robust as any game on the market.

 NBA 2K
Let me just start by saying that this game isn't as amazing as NFL 2K, it would be impossible to repeat that first feeling when you saw NFL 2K, so if you get this game expecting the same, you will be dissapointed.
NBA 2K has the same menu's and everything as NFL 2K, so you should be used to everything the first time you pick up the game, one thing you won't be used to to the controls.
The announcers are almost as good as the NFL 2K guys, they keep up with the play and are almost always talking, they do mess up a few times and say a players name like they would in the introduction(J-j-j-j-j-j-j-a-a-a-a-a-son Kid-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d or something like that, long and drawn out), but those mistakes are forgivable.

 [No title]
Once you've played 2K, unless you're under the influence of some sort of mind-altering substance, the mere thought of a looking at a hoops title on any other platform will be enough to make you sick.
2K allows for waaaay to much contact when the computer has the ball, and if there is a call, 9 times out of 10 it will be a block on your player, even if your standing still.
NBA 2k is a great game but one thing that really, really, REALLY sucks is that you can't view your individual players stats inside the game (I would be extremely happy if you explained to me that there was a way to do this that I am missing :)).

If one is accustomed to hearing the extremely exciting announcers in NBA Jam or NBA live, then there is little doubt that the arena announcer in NBA2K lacks heart.
There are some very promising aspects to the gameplay of NBA, likewise, there are many aspects of the gameplay which are inexcusable for they knew where to look when it came to replicating a great hoops sim.
The jump pass, which was first seen in the original NBA Jam, is there intact, and there are a variety of new renders, which are quite fun to observe when passing the ball.

The one thing that may aggravate players who aren't die-hard basketball-simulation fans is NBA 2K's realistic representation of the number of fouls that are incurred during play and the number of passes that miss their mark and find their way out of bounds.

But like NFL 2K before it, this is yet another sports game that Dreamcast owners will want to show off to friends.
On the positive side, NBA 2K contains a new finesse-based method of hitting foul shots that requires that you squeeze the control triggers in near perfect synch.

However, this is not to say that NBA 2K7 is without its faults, as there are many frustrating and annoying aspects to it.
This gets you an invite to an NBA charity tournament where you ultimately need to beat other aspiring teams to take over ‘territories' by completing different challenges (such as first to 11, one on one and only being able to score by slam dunks) to ultimately break into the NBA.
You can hear the screeches of the rubber soles on the court, the fiery crowd and all the ball related sounds (be it the satisfying swoosh of a ‘swish' or the hold-your-breath clunk of a ball hitting the rim).

There are a couple of announcers who are quieter than the pair from NFL 2K, but this prevents them from getting repetitive (although they run out of comments for the inevitable substitutions by the end of your second game).
In NBA 2K, you pull the analog L and R triggers in slight increments to try and aim two arrows at the same time.
NBA 2K does have the best graphics and some of the best features of any basketball game I've seen.
