NBA 2K8 User Review

NBA 2K8 is a fun basketball game to play, but the visual presentation ruins the gameplay

Score: 7.2/10

The Bottom Line:
"Almost, but not quite"
I've like the previous two 2K games for the PS2. But is this newest installment to the 2K series as good as I thought it would be? Kind of but not really. What I really didn't like about this game is the graphics. The player models look pretty bad, and don't look like the real life players. There's a lot of clipping and glitches when you play the game, and the frame rate isn't all that great. The gameplay is pretty fun. The controls are easy, but it's hard to make many shots. The online is pretty fun but not as good as NBA Live 08. Is it better than NBA Live? Yes, but barely.
Graphics: 5.7/10--pretty bad actually

Gameplay: 7.8/10--it's pretty good but too hard to make shots

Enjoyment: 7.3/10

Final Thoughts: A pretty good basketball game that anyone could enjoy, but the visual presentation drags the experience down.

Final Score: 7.2/10
