Ben Vollmer - "The old adage “a tale of two halves” really encapsulates the NBA 2K24 experience. On one hand, the hardcourt experience is as good as it ever has been (as we should demand from a game that iterates annually), and there are a handful of game modes that allow all of that to be enjoyed without interruption. On the other, much more nefarious hand, MyCareer is nearly unplayable unless you open your wallet or endure an absurd grind. Even worse, mechanics like badge regression reinforce the worst parts of the microtransaction scheme. Beneath those issues, NBA 2K24 still offers a solid basketball experience, but it requires looking in the right places. Clearly, there is a love for the game of basketball on display in modes like MyNBA and Mamba Moments. But a lot of that love is lost the moment we’re asked to pay an absurd amount of money to compete in the main multiplayer mode."
Sales to date are over 9 million units sold and nearly 2 million daily users.
You aren’t wrong. Take Two has figured out how to monetize the franchise. That is for sure!
Lmao how 🤣🤣 I tried getting into sports games but I get so bored of it, I'd rather play a multiplayer game and I don't even care for online games like that 🤣
Crazy that SEGA actually sold off their sports dev teams. Look at all this money they've been missing out on since then. Another stupid business decision, one of many.
With NBA 2K24 Season 7 tipping off, that means new Season 7 Rewards for MyCAREER, MyTEAM, Premium, Pro Pass, and HOF Pass.
In the words of LeBron James, "It's About Damn Time!" 2K announced on its official Discord channel that NBA 2K24 has implemented new protections against cheating tools and their-party software / scripts.
I bought this game on sale as I havent played a 2k basketball game since 2k7 and lets just say I wish I could get my money back
Live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
These reviews neither hurt or help the sales of this franchise because it is the sole definitive version of an NBA video game.
This is what happens when you practically have a monopoly. Maybe they will listen and make improvements and maybe they won’t.
End of the day it will move millions of copies regardless.
How long before this is a free ps+ game for the month? I think we've gotten at least 3 of these for free over the last several years.
