I wasn’t expecting much out of this game, after test driving a copy of NBA Live 2006 I just knew, this was gonna be another one of those years. One of those years where the norm is to do much of nothing to the game just add a few roster spots, and then charge you full price for it. You know like EA is SO good at. So I was very surprised to see that NBA2K6 wasn’t that way at all. Man, Visual Concepts really did a number to this game. The A.I. is much improved, the defense is much improved, and the game feels much, much more like a NBA game. It’s really that simply. The game isn't for the casual player, this is hard core basketball. I was very surprise to see the computer team take the ball to the wings, and fast break past me like I was a school kid! I HAD TO PLAY DEFENSE, what a concept huh? The computer offense is way better at getting the ball down the court and getting a good shot off, you won’t see the computer waiting around for something to happen, it will take you to the hole, and make you feel bed about it. It’s awesome to see that. Even on the default setting the computer teams are much improved. PLUS, this year they got “the bug” fixed so that the computer coach call a time out, and does it at the right time. It’s so cool to see my team run off 10 points in a roll and have the computer coach frustrate calls a time out! The graphic also have improved, but maybe not to point I wanted it to, I think I will have to wait to the Xbox 360 version come out maybe. The sound on the court, and in the booth has also improved, with more court talk, and court cut screens giving the feeling of a live NBA game on the tube. I haven’t done much to the rest of the game, I don’t really bother with much of that “show biz” stuff, but I do love the improvement in the 47/7 game. It’s deeper, and more realistic then before. Not saying for sure right now, I need a lot more time on the court, but this is a must have for any B-Ball fan. This maybe just what we’ve been looking for, for a long time.
I can't tell you how great this game is. The gameplay is so much better than NBA Live...the game flows better. Only thing I don't like is that you can only create 10 players. The CAP is also very limited. I've been pl... Read Full Review
