    It's a great game the only problem is that it came out with many bugs so had to update it took me a long time to do so with my bad internet. However, the game is good as I remember playing this game 10 years ago and I can say It has improved a lot from then. So this game for me is good if not one of the best sports games I played.

    Es un juegazo, pero tiene mecánicas demasiado rebuscadas, además, el Platino es prácticamente imposible.

    NBA 2k20 feels stunning, the new MyTeam additions, MyGM and MyLeague modes are incredible additions to 2k's beloved basketball franchise. The MyTeam rewards have improved dramatically and the shooting mechanics are incredibly easy to pull off. This is truly a game that all basketball fans will truly love. A solid 10 out of 10, 2K!!!

    The Apex of sports games post hot-fix update. Went from unplayable to a master piece. The new mechanics like aim shooting come with a learning curve but after a couple days you'll never look back. Shooting feels smoother than ever, however this 9 rating comes with the assumption shooting online will be patched so that it is fun to play

I received this post launch catastrophe and I solely play this game in myleague mode. My rating does not reflect server issues, my career, park, or any other content regarding online. Where FIFA, Madden and seemingly ever sport simulation game from competitors struggle with stagnant unrealistic gameplay and shallow offline experiences, I commend 2K for their on the court simulation of basketball. This game has seemingly endless customization from expansion teams to the court and jersey editors allowing you to customize your team to your liking. Every aspect from salary cap, trade logic, free agency, gameplay, playbooks, progression and regression is customizable to user preference. Once sliders are dialed in the minute to minute gameplay and presentation is superb. Elite players knock down contested threes. Computer AI is intelligent and down right creative in spurts and each team evolves throughout the year providing unique challenges game to game. Minor issues are as followed. Traveling and charges are non existent and sometimes blatant. No slider set accurately culminates in proper free throws attempted per game. AI coaches rarely if ever use timeouts. Lastly ever half/fullcourt shot hits the rim. One minor gameplay improvement would be the animation regarding layups and overall control when driving to the lane. Bottom line, online aside if you’re looking for a deep and rich offline franchise sport simulation you’ve been deprived of from other titles “looking at you FIFA and Madden” and gameplay/customization and realism is the ultimate factor regarding your experience. Pick up 2K! Expand

Eure schuld! 70€ jedes Jahr für dasselbe spiel mit einer anderen Zahl auszugeben ist insane! „Keine grossen Änderungen“ junge sollen die Basketball neu erfinden oder was?
    Der Online Modus ist völlig irrelevant für mich. Wenn du dir dieses Spiel kaufst muss dir bewusst sein dass es Pay2Win ist, vorallem in 2020. mein Tipp: kauf es im Sale. Hab es für 20€ bekommen und dafür lohnt es sich. 70€ ist das Spiel nicht wert, aber es ist trotzdem gut.
    Bin zufrieden

    This is my favorite multiplayer game of all time. Giving the game a 0 is not going to change Take Two’s opinion of microtransactions. Just be honest and acknowledge how much fun you’ve had with the game compared to others. I didn’t spend any money on VC and still had hundreds of hours of fun.

    Pretty good game with lots of micro transactions. Unlike madden the game modes themselves are deep, fun, and interactive. Gameplay is very similar to 19 and remains relatively bug free and smooth. Servers are a main concern as they are slow, laggy, and buggy. Besides this 2k20 is a decent installment of the franchise.

    This game is perfect. It is a game that should be put up at museums. No new parks, gambling. This is a Perfect! Best thing ever since WWE turned PG.

    Honestly I'll admit I haven't been playing 2k for a while, but out of all the 2k's that I have played I think this is one of the better 2k's out there and that people are being way disrespectful about, I mean people who haven't even played the game are giving it a zero WTF

    as always the game is really good it has some improvements and has some bugs but overall i really love this game as every year i wont say its the best from the NBA 2K franchise but its defiantly worth the money it has many good features that other people would like all the negative comments are some haters who probably didn't even buy the game

    I cant give it anything less. The gameplay is outstanding, I keep coming back for more even if I didn’t have a great game because I always feel like I’m getting better. If you’re new don’t be intimidated, play the way you want and you’ll be successful

    NBA 2K20 isn't the most groundbreaking opus in the IP, but it's still a must-have for all the basketball fans out there.

    Visual Concepts’ tireless scouting for new stuff hasn’t affected its immaculate eye for detail. [Issue#168, p.78]

    NBA 2K20 includes fewer innovations than a "copy/paste club", yet manages to still play and feel pretty great. Gambling and microtransactions involved are becoming more and more toxic with each year tho.
