"2K Sports has been providing us with great basketball games for the last ten years so NBA 2K10 marks the tenth anniversary of NBA 2K titles spanning from 1999 to 2009 and looks to improve on everything. Look to play a good basketball simulation style game that will punish you if you try to play it like NBA Jam but reward you if you play smart and listen to your coaches. 2K10 does a lot of things to move it into the buy category and not just another roster tweak of last year's iteration."
I'm always hesitant towards sports games because you never know if your going to get something really good or just another roster update.
Ditto. Of course, there's also the fact that I'm not a huge sports game fan in the first place...
do all sports game have so much hype? They can do a lot better than they can now, and yet people still love it. I am confused.
The game is good, but is not perfect. I liked many aspects of it being a good simulation but sometimes you just want some good old fashioned arcade action.
Play selfishly and you won't get matched with folk who take it seriously. Another feature is dynamic online stat changes - if you're having a great time scoring loads of points with a player who was overrated but he turns out to have a stinker of a season in the real world, he'll be downgraded in-game.
This is the basketball game. It doesn't look as nice as EA's offering, but it has it where it counts.

This is the tenth anniversary edition, and developers Visual Concepts wanted to make an impression. It is clear from outset that they haven't held back, and have given their absolute all to put out one hell of a basketball game, even if it does present some challenges for a newbie like myself."
