    El mejor juego de basquet que probé hasta el momento, bastante mejor en casi todo en comparación al 2k16, me gusto que hayan mejorado el online, Las animaciones excelentes y ni hablar la captura de movimiento que mejoro muchísimo, excelente juego.

    I changed the speed of the game at 32. The career mode great. The content of the game very extensive. Gafika is amazing. Animations players on the field is the highest level. Even RPGgame may worse animation while walking only one hero! One of the few games created with passion.
    This is the game!

    This is the best 2k basketball game since 2k8 imo. They have improved nearly every aspect and also added some awesome new features to. The game has so much depth to, I can see spending hundreds of hours on this game easy. It runs well, My career is very improved, the game looks gorgeous, plays the best the series ever has gameplay wise and the presentation has been turned up a notch to.This is the best 2k basketball game since 2k8 imo.

    The only gripe I have with the game is I wish you had the option to skip the cut scenes in my career.

    Also you don't need to spend a penny, I have owned every 2k game since the very first one and NEVER, I repeat, NEVER bought any VC (in game currency). You have the option to if you want you're player to be GREAT right off the bat, but what is the fun in that? I enjoy bringing my player from someone who is meh to someone who is an all time great. That games grit and determination in real life and in this game. I have neve felt like I HAD to spend extra money in this game, I just look at it as an option for those who are not the best at the game or who are impatient. I get a good amount of VC by playing my career, doing street ball games to 21, doing my team and the odd quick match with my pacers. If you know basketball well and don't mind a challenge early on this is a fantastic mode that is the best it has been this year.    … Expand

    First time exposed to an NBA game, and it was very fun. Gameplay is fairly easy to pickup, looks great and feels authentic. All kinda of different play styles, fans of the game will absolutely love this.

    Haven't played a NBA 2K in a while, so I might not be too familiar with the latest changes introduced in the most recent entries of the franchise, so I obviously enjoyed 2K17 a lot.

    It is visually stunning, super fun and smooth to play and the My Career mode has lots of depth, it seems that it is never going to end.

    Visual Concepts just needs to add some spit and polish to turn this game into the best sports sim of our time.

    This year NBA 2K rocks again, but the onmipresent in-game currency casts a shadow over the career mode.

    From an outsider looking in this is a heck of a good sports game. Full featured with heaps to do and gorgeous to look at. I can only imagine how fantastic NBA 2K17 is for true fans of the sport, but even for a newbie like me it's an entertaining and comprehensive package that contains heaps to do.
