Expected better....

User Rating: 7 | NBA 2K6 X360
By TheNIM | Review Date:
While 2kSports really brings it with the gameplay, and while this game completely destroys NBA Live on the 360, it still leaves a lot to be desired. Someone needs to let the developers know that they were creating a next gen game. I looked at it and the graphics aren't much better than the orignal XBOX/PS2 game. Outside of the crowd everything is virtually the same. Positives- Good game play, but not great, Decent sound. Realistic shooting. Shot Stick is solid.

Negatives- Graphics aren't a drastic improvement. The computer starting lineups can sometimes be ridiculous. The dynasty mode drags and certain players don't play as well as they should. LeBron James can hit the 17 footer and someone should tell 2ksports that. If you combined Lives Graphics with this game and improved the AI, you would have the best game around. Unfortunetly, this game, just like 2K's baseball game, just isn't quite up to expectations.
