The only thing I ever enjoy about sports games is seeing videos of the graphical and physics glitches.

>>385408541
nba 2k games have better animations than any game in any genre. if you think im bullshitting try the demo

>>385408510
This. I've been hooked since 2k14 and don't even like basketball.

So whats gonna be missing from the switch version ?

>>385409081
probably just shittier graphics

>>385409081
honestly, prob all the customization of clothing and what not.

>>385409168
why? I think the switch can handle that. I think they'll just downgrade the graphics

Truly a video games board

>>385408958
ive never played any but my friend is really into them. he's brought up the customization options before randomly. pretty sure he just made some basic jerseys, but he'd get a real kick out of that pic.

>>385409235
the cool part about it is that you can be a shit creator but still have access to a library of custom jerseys/logos/stadiums from other users by using keywords

>>385409209
nintendo doesn't want kids playing with customization options, lots of bad things can come from that

>>385408406
This. Is OP baiting?

>>385409168
Would this have something to do with nintendo's no in-game micro-transactions thing ?

>>385409332
no im not. Sports games are genuinely fun and usually come jam packed with shit and more complex features over the years.

>>385408406
Sports games are unironically deeper than JRPGs like Persona or Final Fantasy

Is the game play actually good? Last NBA I played was 2k3. EA sports games are always filled with terrible gameplay and controls to go with dated graphics. How is 2k any better?

>>385409615
stop namefagging.

>>385409581
Yeah but their romances all suck

>>385409581
they also revolve around the gameplay too instead of relying on filler and fetch quest shit. The irony in all of this is that /v/ thinks sports games are for casuals but yet they actually have a steep learning curve to git gud. Instead of them being dumbed down every year like franchises in other genres they become increasingly complex in a good way.

>>385409615
gameplay is the best part and the animations and graphics are legit great

>Play my family in Madden at family reunion

Some people just love the genre and get really good at it.

OK but if I got it then it would be on switch so graphics don't mean shit. Does it still play like an arcade game? I hate sports Sims since they all have awful controls and collision.

There's sliders. You can play it as a fun arcade title with quick gameplay or shift it to a grind it out realistic simulation. There's also shit like wacky neon courts and street ball.

Do you mean playing ball or just watching? Where are you from?

>>385414447

Both I guess. Hialeah.

>>385414509
start practicing solo at empty courts, get comfortable with dribbling/handling the ball. Then move onto pick up games in your area. If you want to start watching ball again and you're from FL then just watch your home town Heat.

It's good, if you are just looking for a basketball game then go for it, but know that 18 is right around the corner so the online population will nose dive soon

>>385415162

It's up to you really. 2k will be mostly the same game every year, so the only thing you have to worry about is players migrating.

>>385415162

If you like sports games then just wait a few years between. You'll get a bit more out of it. Except for Madden. I can't tell the difference between any of those games.

What's the best 2k game available on 360?

http://opencritic.com/browse?page=0&sort=score&platforms=%5B%5D&genres=%5B86%5D&date=Released

technically even 2k17 was on 360 but i'm sure it wouldn't run too well

>>385416458
>I'm sure it wouldn't run too well
Maybe Xbox One X will solve the problem, but on seventh generation systems, the best sports games are the ones released the year before the PS4. When companies intentionally sandbagged games so people would go to the new system.

>>385416719
well maybe it looks the best but i remember 2k11 having its own special mode of jordan challenges that were pretty cool, i think

>>385416458
2k12 is pretty great. It was one of the first sports games I saw that made actual large improvements to itself.

>>385408190
Not buying any 2k until they start fixing their shit.
Peaked with 2K14 imo, the post moves were so satisfying in that one

The real question is why the paid salary player in OPs image is allowed to talk shit to the GM about what decisions are made. Some Sjw writing going on there...

>>385418679
NBA players, especially the star players, are all entitled divas that try and emulate LeBron by taking control of their teams and influence all their decisions. If you don't they leave like Kevin Durant for a team that'll cater to them and the rest of the players on the team.
