Amari Carroll is a beast! He harassed Kobe all game, foot-planting and animations much better, block shots much better, presentation best of any sports game, can't wait to play this baby!!

JV looks spot on with that beard, I like it.

The one think I hate about NBA2K16, is that it makes other sports games obsolete. I mean, look at all the pre-game/half-time shows. Look at the team intro's, look at the player intro's, the side-line interviews, the stat-overlays and so on. Other sports games feel so hollow compared to what 2KSPORTS brings out. These guys know how to make a sports title.

One minor 'complaint': I wish they would have used a new score ticker. I preferred the one from 2k14. And looking at the same one as last year, makes it feel old a bit. Just a very minor 'complaint' of course

Was it just me, or does the player size-to-court ratio seem better now with better floor spacing?

I'm glad the halftime highlights are presented in pulled back broadcast mode. Much more refreshing, much more authentic to tv broadcast. Secondly, I'm glad they actually showed the broadcast play first before zooming in for a more cinematic angle of the same play. Broadcast camera allows one to see the matchups on the floor better. This is how it should be done. Good job 2k.

Next year, I would like to see some sequential breakdown of the action. Tell us what happen during the early part of the first quarter, midway and latter half of the first quarter. Any important runs, gameplay moments (i.e. if Klay Thompson goes off for 37 points in a quarter, let's talk about that; Steph Curry breaks another 3 point record, let's talk about that, etc.). Present the quarters in a way that gives the gamer an idea of what happened had s/he not played/nor watched the 1st and 2nd quarters.

Halftime show-wise, 2k14's was obviously better than 2k15, but 2k14 still had it's fault where the halftime highlight camera was too zoomed in.

Hopefully during franchise mode, they will talk about scores from around the league like they had in the NBA2k14 halftime.

Would have also liked to have seen the postgame show breakdown the 3rd and 4th quarters, unfortunately, it jumped straight into the player of the game with highlights.




Hafltime - 1st quarter highlights (gif could not capture all of it). Love the broadcast angle.




Halftime - 2nd quarter highlights. Love the broadcast angle.

Sounds something like the good old reelmaker that I missed so much.
