NBA 2K10 Review XBOX 360
มุมมอง 7187 หลายเดือนก่อน
Released on October 6th 2009, NBA 2K10 was the 10th edition of the game with a special release title "Tenth Anniversary Edition". This was a game that I enjoyed playing but 15 years later, how does the game hold up? Is it worthy of being titled the Anniversary Edition? Is it worthy of featuring Kobe Bryant on the cover? Or is it just my nostalgia that's getting the better of me. Check out the v...

Death Stranding Directors Cut PS5 Review
Madden 2005 was the best 💯💪
Still deeper than Cfb 2025
@@VoltX_1 I agree with you on this. I am enjoying CFB25 but I was really expecting more
I’m tired of the easiest catches being dropped in game changing scenarios just because I’m not playing as a devs favorite team. Every time I play against a top ten favorite or bandwagon team I could be up by 38 at the half then all of a sudden I can’t complete any pass and my runs get stuffed behind the line while the other team can beak 4-5 tackles and 1 wr can make a miraculous catch with 4 defenders swatting at it. Again I’ll say if your not a crowd favorite team and play on a manly difficulty not some dogshit easy pro difficulty it’s fucking impossible
For me, the Gen 6 madden timeline is: 2001: This blew people away as an upgrade from the PS1, but is very flawed 2002: This was the first on the game cube and original xbox, but wasn't special. It was still very flawed. 2003: This was the first good Madden on the gen 6 consoles. A lot of the flaws of 01 and 02 were fixed. I have a video from 2023 comparing the 2002 to 2003. 2004: This was the first great madden. Not the best, but if 03 was the first good one, this was the first great one. 2005: Very good, but overrated and overshadowed by the elephant in the room - 2k5. It is really good, but I felt 07 and 08 became peek gen 6 titles. 2006: A solid game, but overshadowed by the Sizzle trailer and jump to gen 7 consoles. Also forgotten by the release of 07 and 08. 2007: This was my favorite for a long time and the first time I put more time back into Madden over 2k5. Franchise got an overhaul. 2008: This is the most popular one because it is very good and has a deep modding community on the PC. 2009-2012: I have never really played them. I am told they are similar to 08, but they don't have PC mod support and the gen 7 games were getting better at this point - especially Madden 10 and 12 on the 360 and PS3.
Despite my other 3 replies, I love this video. Thanks for making it.
Reply 3: On the Xbox, the NCAA 04 import draft classes are corrupted. EA knew about this and supposedly would replace your disc if you sent it in. So, there are some copies out there without the problem, but the roms you can download and your typical used copy in the wild is likely to be part of the bugged mass produced batches. If you have a version that doesn't see corrupt imported classes, please look into ripping the game and hosting it for the archives, as that is a rare disc.
Reply 2. A lot [not all] of the game play complaints are a combination of individual player skill and slider settings. I haven't finished tuning simulation sliders on my channel yet [because I have been side tracked], but I ran a tournament last year [2023] that had solid sliders/settings that still need some tweaks.
Reply 1: Pat and John never had banter in the game. I have a Madden 2002 series on my channel, the last game Pat and John worked together in and what you claim is demonstrably untrue. In real life? Sure. In the game? No.
You totally overexagerated how bad the graphics are for this game. Pretty much what the graphics were like back then. Saying they were late PS2 level is ridiculous. 🤦♂️
It really sucks that the controls weren't working for you, I played this game as a kid and loved it! I beat nearly every mission, and I'm fairly certain it spawned my borderline autistic-obsession with aircraft🤣
I loved Vanquish back in the day when it came out, I picked it up & beat it on day one with one sitting. While it's on the short side there's a ton of replay value in the different difficulty modes as they introduce new enemies & if I remember correctly give some enemies new attacks as well. There's also the ability to make Sam smoke a cigarette & then toss it from behind cover to use as a distraction, it comes in handy on higher difficulties for sure. I just wish we'd get a PS5 remaster that rusmbs at 120fps for this game, cuz the pc version has issues if you unlock the frame rate (it increases damage received).
I would buy it for a Dollar!, right now is extra cheap since it's going to be soon delisted so I am curious to try it out and experience the frustrating controls by myself since I've never played the 360 version.
I actually enjoyed this game, but it’s stupidly hard. I enjoyed the controls but sometimes I would accidentally do the wrong thing, it’s really a dumpster fire 😅
When i play this i saw where binary domain gameplay came from
They say 08 is the greatest...i liked 07 player roles
I stooped buy them the last version i bought was in 2021 I refuse to buy their crp games
NFL 2k series was the greatest after madden 05-06
I love this game I currently got it from a PS2 and honestly I love it. But however there's some stuff that is really gets under my skin with this game. I don't know if you guys have the same issue but if you have more than a 2-minute game your game can sometimes phrases for a couple seconds or just could be completely Frozen.
Idk how I got into watching these throwback gaming videos but I enjoy them greatly. Might be bc I played some of these haha
Great video - content-wise and length-wise. I notice you used the Madden NFL 2002 menu music for your background, that is my favorite. I liked the tracks that started with 2003, but the in-house tracks for Madden NFL 2002 made it unique. I do want to bring up a couple points regarding quibbles with the game. The passing system can be adjusted. In Settings, you can change it from "Normal" to "quick", and you don't have to hit "X" on the PS2 to bring up the passing icons; they appear when you snap the ball. Makes a big difference when you get a high snap in the shotgun and the defense happens to be blitzing. Another quibble I have is, in Franchise mode, you can't change your players' jersey numbers (this was an oversight in Madden NFL 2002 also). Not a game-breaker, but it annoys me when I draft or sign a player with a unique number that was legal in the NFL at the time and he gets stuck with something like 88 as a WR or TE or 47 as a CB.
I had this one
it does suck, they slowed it down way too much. dont feel like im in control of the game
Great review dude! 🤙🏻 This is one that I have been curious about for a long time. The weapon selection wheel looks nice and simple. The bullet time mode looks awesome too. As a cover shooter I think every game is compared to Gears. I think an 8 hour game is a nice change up. Especially with all the lengthy RPG’s and Open world games. I will be looking for a copy of this one. 🍻
Looked like a fun time at the con again. I am hoping to get up there next year.🤞🏻 Awesome pickups dude. I can’t believe you had never played Ducktales before. It’s such a staple of the NES library. Nice 360 grabs. I couldn’t get into LA Noire. It seemed like alot of care was put into the game by Rockstar but it just wasn’t my speed. Watch the Ghostbusters movies first because it will make you appreciate the game even more. It’s one of my favorite games of all time. Such a gem. 🤙🏻 Wow on those Saturn grabs!!😮
Nice video man, subbed
Thank you!
@@LameDadRetroGamer you've actually made me want to play this game, I had never heard of it.
The most underrated 2k 🔥
100% agreed and it really started the run of some great 2k games. Thanks for watching
The way you opened those wrappers is giving me flashbacks to trying to open MREs. I haven't had Warheads except maybe a couple times about a decade ago when I was 13 but is it really that hard? Also did you end up having Mario Party Wars Episode II?
The candy had melted a little bit which made it hard to open. We play a lot of Mario party but we have not done another 30 round game yet. We need to as I told the kids next time they had to eat squid
Always wanted to try this looks good
Update on my video I think I'm about halfway done and it's now too dark to keep recording (makes me wish I was still in Alaska) so I'm gonna start tomorrow morning as soon as I see the sun and see if I can crunch it out by the end of the day tomorrow. It took me 45 minutes just in messed up footage to get a usable take for my 1 minute intro though so I don't know if I'll be able to do that.
I'm looking forward to it!
The trigger of my gun isn't resetting right so I ordered another part and that will supposedly arrive on May 10th so the video is postponed until at least then. I probably could make something with what I already have recorded but Miyamoto's line about how a delayed game is eventually good but a bad game is bad forever is probably also applicable to shit tier internet videos.
Easily applicable to everything lol. Yea don't rush it if you are waiting on something because once it's out there it's there lol. You have to be completely happy with it and until then I don't mind waiting
Nice review! It's strange that nobody seems to be talking about this game anymore as it seems yo be the perfect premise for a sequel! I have the PS4 version but haven't played it yet. My backlog is brutal lol! But I will get to it as it looks like a fun one! Great video and keep up the good work!
It definitely needs a sequel. It's a really solid game and I definitely recommend checking it out when you can. It's like watching a fast and furious movie just turn off your brain and go sliding around the map. Thanks for watching Dan the man

Easily the most underrated gem of the 7th gen, Vanquish is a phenomenal experience from start to finish. I will say, while the PS4 remaster looks nice, this game was a true testament of what the 7th gen hardware could do in the right hands. Great review man, and really glad you got to play through this one!
Very underrated and it definitely needs a sequel and the game sold really well not sure what the reasoning is for not having one
Thanks for watching my guy
I bought Vanquish for PC a while ago but haven't played it yet. I'll check it out if I ever figure out how to fix my computer.
Hey I just got my computer working actually. Downloading the game now.
It's a really solid game just straight action with very little story. Great game highly recommend it. Thanks for watching my guy
Nice Saturn Pickups. I beat RE for the first time a couple years ago. I played the Saturn version because you don't hear much about it. Some great 360 pickups. Great to see the system get some attention.
Very cool that you beat the Saturn version you really don't hear much about it. Despite the fear of FOMO about the 360 the games are still priced very fairly. Thanks for watching
I think the 360 will have plenty to get on a budget and there are a lot of good games to go for.
Agreed. I was able to pickup I think 16 360 games for under $100
I really enjoyed sliding all over the place. I haven't beat it yet but it is on my list for this year.
You'll enjoy it, the sliding mechanic is fun and you can use it just to blow through levels and skip past enemies making the game quicker.
Glad you reviewed another one from the box. I like the length of this too, 8 hours is great in today's gaming space and I like that it's very linear. I'm not much for open worlds. Too bad the bosses repeat though, I'm not a fan of that. Great review, LD.
You have to play it one of these days. I agree 8 hours is just perfect. Just enough to not wear out it's welcome. The repetitive bosses does suck but o well still a hidden gem and great game imo
Confession: Never plated the original. Looks decent
This one is surprisingly pretty tough but a great game. Thanks for checking it out you legend
Nice pickups! I own Kameo but haven't played it yet because backlog lol! Those bangers at the end are awesome! Besides meeting a bunch of cool people, I think that the highlight of going to a con is to find games that you won't easily find in the wild! Great video and keep up the good work!
Thanks Dan. The backlog is a real thing lol. Yea I was able to pickup the great games at the end but I also was able to pickup all of those 360 games for less than $100 so yea it's great to buy at the conventions. Thanks for watching
Bionic Commando works on xbox series x? I like this Game!
FN round 3 🙌🙌
Yes sir!
I’m gonna bust this game out and start a new franchise again after watching this! This IS the best madden ever! Great vid!
Not yrue Kobe easy he was getting rings
True. Kobe was killing it but at that time he also had a stacked roster backing him up. AI never in his career had that type of support. Thanks for watching!!!
Great pickups David - la noir wow great to meet the voice actor
GREATEST games during that time period!! Wtf happened?? 🤦♂️ I REALLY hope NCAA 25 knocks it out of the park!!
Agreed! These games were bangers and some of the best in the series. Hopefully 25 is decent and not a half @$$ Madden clone
I picked up this game used back in 2020 and played the shit out of it (It was the game cube version)
The gamecube version I believe looks the best out of the 3 systems but yes this game is so much fun to play.
I f’ing flipped my lid as a kid seeing this game for the first time! Always hold a special place in my heart… nostalgia! Great vid! Subbed!
Thanks for the sub and watch. Yea man this game blew my mind back then and still to this today as you mentioned it has a special place in my heart
So many great games, LA Noire is like a fine book my friend! It’s amazing, like a gritty version of LA confidential the movie. Dude you’ve never seen Ghostbusters?!? Oh man….and that game is FANTASTIC!!!! You got a lot of gaming ahead of you, awesome to meet you finally!!!
Shamefully yes I've never seen a GB film. I'm changing that this weekend though and yea I've heard the game is great. I'm really excited to try LA Noire as it looks to be something completely different and unique. Thanks for watching
@@LameDadRetroGameryou’re welcome my friend!
It would have been awesome to have made it to MGC to not only meet you but see you in action and hosting with TC! Lady Laci approves of the toy pickup, and Terminator related too no less! I don't TRY to go after steelbooks but I do enjoy getting them; they're had to pass up. Kameo is one I'd really like to carve out some time for. Man, this haul keeps going and you're not even to the grail--so freaking many great games. Ah, that Star Trek game; that's one Laci and I mean to try and give the full co-op play to. Yeah, no surprise (sadly) that vendors up-charge at conventions. And I get it; they want to make sure they cover their table fee and they also purposefully make wiggle room for haggling, but still, it's just as easy to hop online for a better deal and have the means to return a game that may not work. Great find on Nights though. And Saturn RE to boot, dude, that's so cool!!
Agreed it will be great to meet up one of these days. There was a lot of really cool toys but the Terminator one was the only one that caught my attention. I was able to walk out of this convention and I only spent around 100 on all the 360 games so I'll definitely count it as a win. The Star Trek game seems so good so far and would be even better coop definitely recommend you and lady laci check it out
Dang dude, you walked away from a TON of games, and quite some bangers too! Sounds like it was a very successful convention man. Hope I can get there next year. Good stuff!
I was very pleased to walk away with everything, definitely my biggest haul ever at a game convention. Thanks for watching
Awesome pickups man!
Thanks my guy.
