    The gameplay is awesome, and it's what you are really playing it for - so with that said... the constant online loading that stops all menu action and cannot be cancelled is horrible. The menu/navigation is the worst I have ever used in any game. Good luck figuring out what to do. Did these guys ever put this in front of a user group? Gameplay is king, but the little things make me The gameplay is awesome, and it's what you are really playing it for - so with that said... the constant online loading that stops all menu action and cannot be cancelled is horrible.

    I expected a whole lot more from this installment of nba 2k. 2k9 to me right now is the better choice, as I came close enough to the real time rosters. I spent several days updating. In comparison i think there has been a huge graphics and sound improvement though. but for now my choice is still 2k9.

  1. 2K's still doing its job properly, just as it has to be done. The latest edition of the basketball sim has improved in every aspect of the gameplay mechanics, but's still suffering some lame player animations. With plenty of gameplay modes -including online, my player, real NBA stats...-, this year's version is one of the best sports videogames that we've played so far.

    With solid, fast paced gameplay and an excellent presentation that's easily the best the series has ever had, NBA 2K10 continues its strong pedigree of great basketball.
  3. There are many similiarties from 2K9 that carried over to 2K10, but the PC's inclusion of Living Rosters, Online Play, NBA Today, My Player Mode and the $20 price tag will have you playing this until 2K11 comes out.
