    It’s the best next-gen basketball game available, easily beating "NBA Live 2002" for the PS2, which is more of a roster upgrade than a revamping of the game.

    There's no two ways about it folks: NBA 2K2 is the best-playing basketball game on the planet.

    One of the best basketball games ever on any console…period.
  4. Electric Playground

    Nobody has developed a perfect basketball sim. Visual Concepts however has come the closest with NBA 2K2. By far this is the best hoops title on the market today.
  5. Total Video Games

    Slick prentation and excellent gameplay.
  6. Planet Dreamcast

    If you do plan on going online with NBA 2k2 keep in mind that it might be convenient to have a Dreamcast keyboard handy, when setting up a game. It makes communication much easier.

    Little more than "NBA 2K1" with Michael Jordan, the Memphis Grizzlies, glitchy zone defense and an afterthought of a street ball mode.
