I used to stick to the original NBA Live series but now I'm in love with 2k sports. This game has all kinds of great features and realistic gameplay. The 24/7 mode is where you can make your own player and go head to head with just about every single NBA player in the NBA. They now have a situation mode where you can go automatically to any kind of situation in a game. For example, you can set up a game where there are no timeouts left and there are 3 seconds left in the 4th quarter with your team down by 1. The association mode is very realistic. You get a couple of trade offers a year which is unlike other games where your the only team making trade offers. You can also develop a player you like by sending them to practice with the team or by themselves anytime they want. Overall this game is probably gonna be better than NBA Live 2009 when it comes out.Read full review
NBA 2k6 is by far the best NBA game released for the PS2. The shot stick once mastered is amazing and will allow you to do countless things with the basteball. Free throws are more realistic and the dunks are awesome! The graphics are great and the online mode is extremely addicting. The crib feature is also very cool and makes the games replayability extremely high!
I've played both NBA 2K6 and NBA Live, and by far, NBA 2K6 is the better one out of the two. I don't really care for the 24/7 mode too much, but it does add a fun element to the otherwise "sim basketball game". The game is much improved from the 2k5, although there will be a need to adjust in the controls. Once you actually SPEND TIME in understanding the controls for the game, it becomes a much more exciting game than Live. Graphically, NBA 2K6 is also much better than Live. But in the end, if you want more of a realistic 'sim' this game is the game for you; otherwise, if you want an arcadish feel of the game, probably NBA Live is the better choice.
Another great installment of the 2K series of basketball games. The graphics are well rounded and character liknesses are incredible. Sometimes the AI is something to be desired, There is the ocasional unforced turnover. However the realism of most of the moves the players perform is impressive. Overall this is a great game, It's definatley for the more knowledgeable of basketball fans as opposed to novice fans. The "Assiciation" mode is very deep, consisting of matching salaries in trades, scouting potential draft picks, managing coaching staff, team finances, managing team chemistry. The 24/7 mode is a little suspect, and more often than not gets a little boring. I think most owners of 2k6 will bypass that mode. However all in all they should be very pleased with the graphics, great game play and overall realism of he game.Read full review
