So, with all these basketball action these days, between European F4 and the very interesting NBA Playoffs, I got the urge to play a basketball game, so I remembered NBA 2k11 that I haven't been playing for some months now. I also remembered how awesome this game is! I know it's been like a year after its release but I don't care :P
It's not only about the near-perfect grafics, both stadium and models, it's not only about the sound which is extremely realistic (i onced started playing while i left an NBA stream playing in the background, I couldn't figure which was the real one), it's not only about the terrific detail on every players moves and styl and also on every teams playbook that looks like the real deal, it's not only about the thrill of playing like MJ on his Challenges. What makes this game great is the gameplay (as usual) how realistically it plays! It's how polished it is in every aspect (ok, some bugs as usual, but less than previous games on the series). It's the depth it has especially on Association mode, but also the fun you have on My Player, how clever it's structured. Probably one of the best sports games I've ever played (given I'm European and I play only Football and Basketball games :P ) Damn I love this game!
Great great great, I hope Konami could make PES that polished with a single player mode as deep as the Association, oh well, I can only hope.
9/10
NBA 2k5 was my favorites. Great post nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a nice game :)
ReplyDelete@Sean unfortunately I only own a PC atm so I didn't get to play any of the NBA 2k series before 2k9 (that was the first for the PC wasn't it?).
ReplyDeleteI think i have this game on my steam i always ignored it maybe all give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI remember playing an NBA game some years ago. Can't remember which one. Fun days. (:
ReplyDeletePlayed it, and it's very good
ReplyDeleteive never actually played a basketball game, doubt id be very good, a lot like real life haha

ReplyDeletenba 2k11 is awesome, all the 2K games have been good. like your actually playing. good post
ReplyDeleteDon't like nba 2k11 but I'm not into basketball at all
ReplyDeleteI remember the days when the crowd in a video game were 8bit unrecognizable things everything looks so good now
ReplyDeleteNBA 2k5 was like the story of my childhood. I wish I still had the time to play these games! Aww well, hopefully soon!
ReplyDeleteWOW I thought the picture was a in real life picture.
ReplyDeleteGraphic looks very good.
Never played a basketball game either, but I'm sure this is good.
Not really into basketball but the graphics look amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhen I played basketball myself our team often had nba tournaments and stuff. Hasn't played since I quit though, don't know why.
ReplyDeleteGood review, I've never really been into basketball games.
ReplyDeleteGotta get the hoops in. For me, I gotta get the NHL going as well.
ReplyDeleteReally love the game, play on my PS3 all the time. I had a single player character going playing 12 mins a quarter.. and I never finished a season haha
ReplyDeleteI've never played a NBA game before :( This makes me want to get it lol :P
ReplyDelete@Gheko hahaa, that's my problem too, I like playing 12 mins for the realism and full seasons so I only finished 1 season so far :P
ReplyDeleteLove this game good choice!
ReplyDeleteI always miss the GTA element when playing sport games, why can't I just grab a helicopter and shoot stuff :)
ReplyDeleteIm not a fan of basketball, but its a good Blog
ReplyDeleteI used to play this but kinda left the sport series.
ReplyDeleteI remember playing NBA 2k6
ReplyDeleteWas an awesome game!
I'm not much of an NBA fan but the graphics on this look amazing.
ReplyDeleteNoticed some other people commenting about NBA Jam from back in the day. Man, that was a terrific game.
ReplyDeleteWith regard to 2k11, graphics are downright superb. Basketball is one of the few sports I'm interested in, and that goes for the games as well.
NBA Jam for the N64 (cover I think was Van Horn) was just excellent! Also the older 2v2 versions for SNES and back was tons of fun!
ReplyDeleteSeems like an interesting game... Probably gonna rent it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome game, thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteWow usually I pass off sports games as the same recycled garbage. Interesting to see you talk about this game is such high regard.
ReplyDeleteSports games for me can cause great fun but only temporarily and only with a friend.
ReplyDeleteMan this game is legit, I just rented it.
ReplyDeleteyeah i have to play it!! Thanks for info bro!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great game! I might have to pick it up
ReplyDeleteIt's an awesome game
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big fan of sports games. I think I would prefer football over basketball though
ReplyDeleteAwesome game.
ReplyDeletethis is a great game. Jordan mode is cool but I think My Player could still use a bit of work.
ReplyDeleteWow the graphics look amazing!
