NBA 2K16 review - Livin' Da Dream is a nightmare - MMGN

MMGN writes: NBA 2K16’s MyCareer mode is the video game equivalent of an ambitious half-court, buzzer-beating airball. For the uninitiated, that means it’s a well-intentioned attempt to succeed, but it’s fighting against the odds to make a difference. The MyCareer mode has always been about “your” journey: your ability to guide a custom-created player through the ranks to NBA stardom. Unfortunately, the Spike Lee-directed “Livin’ Da Dream” mini-movie that drives the first six-or-so hours of the mode removes a lot (read: all) of the important decisions that have defined the MyCareer mode for so long. It taints what is otherwise a fantastic basketball game, one that introduces a number of great new gameplay mechanics and modes in an effort to further enhance the series’ iconic obsession with realism.

From what I have heard, MyPlayer is now a non-mode to me. I did not grow up in Brooklyn, like 99% of the other players out there.

Fortnite is just an absurd grind not necessarily that difficult, but the hardest platinum trophies are from games like Super Meatboy and even moreso, Crypt of the Necrodancer.

Super Meat boy!
I intended to platinum it, but I never went to see the complete list of trophies until not too long ago. I said to myself back then : "the hardest one must be getting a+ every stages", but no. They had to include a "complete all worlds without dying once" for each world, including the dark world versions! How crazy is that ?!?!?!

Skull5212519d ago

Still never seen any harder than Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter

Be #1 on the Leaderboards

bujasem_892519d ago

Killa782519d ago

Yakuza 0 was a bit** hidden behind Japanese language/mahjong lol

Overwatch's and Final Fantasy X for me

Other multiplayer games these days or if they have an online part of the game

Final Fantasy IX...those 200 jumps...urgh

Gardenia2519d ago

Final Fantasy IX 1000 jump rope is total bullshit. Luckily you can use an auto clicker script with PS Remote Play

Reboot Need for speed should be #1 on the list.

Super Mario Kart.
Good lord, the struggle...
Mario Kart 64 was almost as bad, but not quite.

Tiger woods pga tour golf. No matter how good you played, the other players scores were close at end of round. I had to take extra strokes, then play my game the last round to prevent this.
