2K4 was trash, you could only call basic plays. Everything about that game outside of the graphics was butchered :scust:

My favorites have to be:

2K11
2K14
2K5
2K3
2K2
2K1
 

PS5 Pro

2k11 was so good that 2k12 was one of only a few years i skipped going back to the original 2k :flabbynsick:

2k18 is up there for me because i love using the all time teams. Evem though you could download them onto the previous few 2kgames it was nice to get official all time rosters. They just gotta get Marcus Camby on there next year

'2k' on Dreamcast with Iverson on the cover. There's nothing like Shaq throwing that shyt into the stands on that game.

2k11

Crazy how we all agree on that one :wow02:

They just had everything right in that one. I felt that was the last 2K where you can legit play defense. If you lost it was because you got out played not because of any gimmicks

Having all those MJ's really made it something special. Growing up MJ was never in any basketball game. So when I saw he was in this i was like :ohhh:

I put a ton of hours into 2k11, definitely my favorite.

2k14 is a close second though, best modding experience. It's still being actively modded today.

2k12 was good on PC too.

I'm really liking 2k18 on PC, especially with the progress mod creators have gained creating cyberfaces for the upcoming draft.

Been playing 2k since the original on Dreamcast. I felt like each one got better except for a few setbacks.

2k4
2k9 and 2k10
2k13

These were worse than their predecessors.

2k18 is the best gameplay-wise.

this was my sh1t

i used to purposely brick free throws then grab the rebound and dunk it in

i can't even do that in NBA 2K

I've played every one from 11 to 17

Before all the microtransactions, fake features, Neighborhood nonsense, gutting MyPlayer to then make it bloated....



Still remember the midnight release

can't wait til the Lebron version drops where u relive all his finals loses

:wow:

You showed your age on that son. But I agree Live 98 was the GOAT basketball game for a long time. Double Dribble was overrated tho, Tecmo NBA was waaaaay better.

nikkaz slept on this fire tho :mjgrin:
