Description

NBA 2KAmazon.com When it comes to digital hoop action, there's no doubt that NBA 2K sports the most luscious visuals ever seen in a basketball game. It's not the best-playing basketball game out there, as it does commit some serious fouls with its questionable artificial intelligence. But like NFL 2K before it, this is yet another sports game that Dreamcast owners will want to show off to friends. The clean graphics show some extremely well-detailed players, stadiums, fans, and even coaches. While the player animations aren't quite smooth as glass (there are quite a few speed-ups and slowdowns), the players do move in a fairly realistic manner. When you see the instant replay of your favorite power forward delivering a massive dunk, you'll cheer. To complement the visuals, Sega has added play-by-play and color commentary to document the on-screen action. While this does get a little repetitive, this feature ultimately adds to the atmosphere of realism.NBA 2K shows some trouble with controls. This is most apparent in handling loose balls. You'll cringe as you occasionally watch long passes sail out of the court, resulting in mindless turnovers. This is especially painful to watch when the Dreamcast can't complete passes to computer-controlled players. These stupid turnovers can, will, and do affect a game's final score--and have even caused a few games to be restarted in disgust. On the positive side, NBA 2K contains a new finesse-based method of hitting foul shots that requires that you squeeze the control triggers in near perfect synch. The create-a-player and coaching options make it relatively easy to lead your team from postseason TV watchers to championship ring owners. While the 2000 season's prettiest basketball game offers more than just the most delicious eye candy, there is still a lingering feeling that NBA 2K could've been much better with a little more fine-tuning. At the very least, while NBA 2K is recommended, it is anticipated that the successor NBA 2K1 will offer even more backboard-breaking fun. --Mark BrooksPros: Spectacular graphics that show plenty of detail Play-by-play and color commentary add to the fun Easy to play, but different from most console roundball games Foul shots are a highlight Cons: Graphics suffer from occasional slowdown for no apparent reason Controls could be stronger Product description Includes game, original case, and original manual. Also includes bonus collector DVD case with reprint of original artwork to look pretty on shelf next to current games! These items are in good condition and complete but they are not like new. They may have small flaws to the case and the game may have very small scratches that do not affect game play. All ClassicGameStore games are tested before being taken into our inventory. Review Whether you're a fan of other basketball games or not, once you've played NBA 2K you can never go back to those other games. NBA 2K is an officially licensed NBA game from Visual Concepts, the developer of NFL 2K. It features all the real players, teams, and arenas, as well as the usual basketball modes, like exhibition, season, and playoffs. The game also has an extensive create-a-player option, and it lets you tweak just about anything. So those of you still living in the past will be able to create a pretty good facsimile of Michael Jordan. Visually, NBA 2K is the most dazzling and realistic-looking basketball game ever. The game moves at 60fps and features more than 1,500 motion-captured animations and more than 400 individually modeled players. Almost everyone looks just like their real-life counterpart. When Kobe Bryant, Latrell Sprewell, Patrick Ewing, or any of the other big names walk onto the court you can instantly recognize them. Eye movements and facial expressions add to the frighteningly real look. Players open their mouths when going up for a dunk, smile after sinking a shot, and so on. While these are nice touches are truly amazing,
