    NBA 2K22 is once again a step forward in gameplay and realism, but it's also a step back in everything else. Microtransactions are as aggressive as ever, advertisements and promotions are as invasive as ever, bugs are as common as ever in The City and, overall, it seems that Visual Concepts is doing some things knowing that there are no competitors in the basketball games genre.

    Somehow 2k is so genius that they come up with a fking ridiculous dunk meter which is even narrower then any shot meter. In 2k logic StephSomehow 2k is so genius that they come up with a fking ridiculous dunk meter which is even narrower then any shot meter.

And not to mention, several players from classic teams are being removed outta nowhere by 2K so idk if they high rn. I just wish the 2k11 or 2k16 days were back yk… Full Review »
