It's weird, but this review kind of makes me excited for 2k15...I think it will truly be this consoles "2k7"

IGN reviews suck, not the score, the score is fine, simply because of lack of bball knowledge

8.9 is a pretty damn good score, these game reviews dont really go into my consideration whether or not i will buy the game unless of course it's extremely bad like a 5 or below/10 or something. Honestly, all i saw is a more organic bball game that has graphics that blow me away from a CG game I already love. If I wanna buy a brand new game I never heard of I'll watch a couple of gameplay vids and watch out for extremely low scores from game reviewers

8.9 means a great game, his reasons for giving it, you cant really take seriously because you know most of these reviewers dont know much about Bball, or other sports for that matter

Again, I mention this before, I got shot down with fans of the series saying this is the best sports sounding game and that I was crazy lol. Ok, guy. Ok. Also breakaway rim physics need to be added. How many players have been shown doing ferocious dunks and the rim doesn't move at all? or when timmy was hanging from the rim? come on man, this is next gen lol

Lol that you gathered all of that from a 5 minute review.

Give me a break.

That's definitely not true and that's going to be apart of what I have to say because it affects jumpers too.

I just don't see the point in bagging 2k14 then talking about 2k15 already when this next gen version is not out even yet ..well it is but we haven't played it

It is my opinion. I'm talking about in terms of next gen. People expected more coming out of the OMG trailer. Nt a similar experience, for better or for worse.
