I have to agree here

I mean he gave us the patrick speech (spongebob) The "look at it, look at it!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwKFec9th0U starts at 1:30 if you wanna see what I mean lol.

Anyway, he said its a no brainer to get, I dont agree with him about the ball physics but I see where he is coming from (basically KD got ripped in a crowd of defenders which is very likely)

Still doesn't change the fact that modes were taken out. If they were kept and modes were added along with a more robust multiplayer it would have certainly scored higher.

Like others mentioned it def was a fair review. I'm not big on scores but I know it matters to the developers so with that being said like the next gen fifa review on ign is a better moving better looking version so it should be a better score our atleast equal. For those waiting to next year I understand it but I can't let this pass especially trading in the cg version and paying only ten bucks more seems like a no brainer if you have a ps4 or Xbox one. Can't wait to get my hands on this game. I keep showing my girlfriend YouTube videos like I used to show my mom when I was a kid showing off nba Showtime lol

Like I said, its time to start a huge thread on the sound because its not matching up with the visuals and gameplay in crucial areas like that. I know LeBron is strong but my lord, the entire backboard rim and everything shakes together and the sound just what makes it seem like a weird experience. Anyway, where are the gifs, there were some masterful moves in there Kobe Paul George LeBron and more

The crowd doesn't groan when the opposing team makes a key basket(a dagger or a momentum killing shot) It doesn't seem as fluid and realistic. The crowd still needs to react to game and game situations more better than how they do now. It seems artificial along with the hoop we mentioned already. 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

I know people are saying 8.9 is a good score, but these guys gave Madden a 8.5.

So you're telling me that NG NBA 2K is just slightly better than Madden? Lol.

Lol @ you thinking because they're IGN their score holds any more weight than anyone else's...they didn't go to reviewer school and earn a degree....they play videogames and have an opinion like everyone else...

Your too focused on outing some kind of bias in this thread to realize that hardly anyone. one is disagreeing with his flaws...

This game appears to be absolutely amazing, and it's gorgeous.

HOWEVER, am i the only one bothered by the absurd exaggeration on the court lightning? it's distracting.
