    Unskippable ads in a $60 unacceptable. This cannot become a normal occurence. Dont buy this game if you want to get a good game

    Can you guys just sell me an ad reel for $60, sorry $70 now for no justified reason, it's not like you updated anything with this game? Or I'm sorry it's actually $100 for the Mamba Forever edition, you know the one that profits off the passing of a hero for an unjustified price. Oh, and if you want the next-gen upgrade, you gotta shell out more to just buy the base game, because 2k wantsCan you guys just sell me an ad reel for $60, sorry $70 now for no justified reason, it's not like you updated anything with this game?

Oh, and if you want the next-gen upgrade, you gotta shell out more to just buy the base game, because 2k wants us to but the game 2x. Please do not get me started on the slot machine mechanics in @k either, you guys are just as bad as EA and it's disgusting. Ads only belong in free to play games. Period. Of all game publishers, you guys overcharge for minimal changes between releases, when let's face it you just have an annual roster update, and you gauge us with microtransactions that other publishers include in the base game and now you put unskippable ads in a month after release!!!! DO YOU THINK WE ARE STUPID?! Never buying a 2k game again from these greedy bastards. **** you, 2k, you don't deserve the NBA ip and steal money from children. Expand

    I live in an economically backwards country and so I buy very few video games. When I buy a game it’s mostly a sports game because I like to play sports games with friends. When I bought this game I was very hesitant because I had very little money especially considering the time.

Seeing the recent EA UFC ads and now this I wish your reviews gets bombarded with complaints and I wish game companies like this burn in hell. Expand

    I've never had a bad experience with NBA2K21. I've bought it on sale (and I recommend this for everyone) and I enjoyed the game-play and the story as well as the nice graphics and animation.

    The game is well made and doesn't deserve a totally bad review just by one aspect, that you didn't like.

    This is by far the worst game EA has ever made. What the hell did they do to the shooting mechanism? It’s awful. You never, ever hit a shot. How is that fun? The AI is the dumbest I’ve seen - if you try to get a rebound you get points deducted for “leaving your assignment”? You get points deducted for smart fouls? Absolute worst game I’ve ever played. I’d rather play “Double Dribble” thanThis is by far the worst game EA has ever made. What the hell did they do to the shooting mechanism? It’s awful. You never, ever hit a shot. How is that fun?

    Il gioco è bello, gira bene, ma siamo stati bloccati per mesi senza la possibilità di giocare e nessuno si è degnato di esporsi pubblicamente per farci sapere quale fosse il reale problema e quando sarebbe giunta un'eventuale fix. Non condivido questo modo di operare

    Si comparas el NBA 2k 20 en Stadia y este nuevo 21 notarás pocas diferencias exceptuando la actualización de las plantillas. Al no tener crossplay las salas para encontrar jugadores y jugar on-line son una auténtica pérdida de tiempo y el único consuelo que podría ser la historia de MyCarrer es insulsa, incoherente durante el transcurso de la temporada y sin gancho.
