they need to being back these intros at the beginning, that's bad ass. I think the 2k's today are too dame realisitic, need to add a little bit of video gamey like atmosphere
That was me on 2k8 doing that with Kobe against Boston triple teamed lol. The clutch rating actually mattered on old 2k's dudes would be like a 108 overall in the clutch.
The gameplay and player movement was better in NBA 2k9 then it is in 2k20. 2k20 is absolute garbage. I wish they would bring back the career mode where u can control all five players on the court and have complete control over your teams roster during the season and off-season. Playing games where the outcome of the game is already predetermined by the game is fuckin stupid.
It’s sad how 2k went backwards, graphics are better with modern 2k, but game mechanics, and movement regressed. Back then there used to be halftime highlights, realism, presentatiin and excitement, now it’s just 10 robotic guys running around.
Yo these old ones require absolute skills! Glibert arenas and rashard lewis are glitches in the game... There are so many others i know about... Just from literally playin all night long and mastering this shit... 2k8 2k9 2k10... I figured in and out... After 2k11 it jus became child play... But i remember some wars with my friends!
The Player REALISM & ATMOSPHERE is so immersive & engaging. Presentation & Commentating is so Vibrant. Sad 2k went away from this model.. New 2k’s are very animated.
I'm a madden player, but watching this brought back so many memories when I actually played 2k. The crowd is lit the PA announcer is on point the commentary is on point and looking back 10yrs ago the graphics are pretty nice as well. We can only hope that the next Series X and PS5 brings this feeling back I'm also holding out hope in madden.
I gave up on madden after 17. Hopefully they actually do have improvements for next gen. As a basketball fan I play the games every year and I'm usually satisfied but I always go back to the old games and just feel a sense of happiness.
I liked the presentation on it, I wasn't a fan of the gameplay too much, I think 2k8 and 2k10 were better, this and 2k12 might be tied for the ones i like the least
2k10 is the best one overall the dunks were crazy in 2k9 it's my second favorite i like 2k8 bcus lebron, carmelo, and Cp3 was with their original teams
If I had to rank them for myself personally it'd be: 2k10, 2k14, 2k11, 2k7, 2k13, 2k8, 2k6, 2k5, 2k3, 2k4, 2k2, 2k1, 2k12, 2k9, 2k. I don't even think any of them are bad games but I definitely played 10 and 7 the most and I've completed a full season on 14 on ps3, ps4 and 360.
LMFAO damn bruh u put 2k9 way off the radar lol ion think it was that bad lol if i had to rank em all mines would be 2k10 , 2k13, 2k11, 2k9 2k14, 2k8, 2k7 2k12, 2k5, 2k6, 2k3 2k4 2k2 2k1....and you right they aint bad but not all that great either...there still fun to play
I liked 2k9 when it first came out but I just felt it wasn't as good as 2k7 or 2k8. Plus the game had too many glitches where the CPU would get so many offensive rebounds or double dribble a bunch just to score on you on hall of fame. Same thing with 2k12, it was great game but the player speed was a joke, the CPU would hold the ball for like 23 seconds then shoot and make a buzzer beater like 80% of the time and the AI would shoot too many 3's, I played the Pacers one game and they shot 47 threes as a team making 29, even Roy Hibbert shot 3 attempts lol. Also those games didn't advance the series too much everything that was in 2k9 was in 2k8 and the same with 2k12 from 2k11. It wasn't like they had much competition because live 09 and nba 09 weren't exactly the games you'd pick over 2k9 unless you just really like super fast paced basketball.
I prefer 2k10 due to myplayer and the final form of the dunk contest. Both has issues but 2k10 felt more polished to me. Watch videos and make a decision on which looks more fun.
Cause it was all about the actual gameplay and making the game as much fun for users as possible. Now it’s all about money and gameplay comes secondary, this usually happens when a company grows too popular and gets greedy. Just like Madden…
Dunk contest, the myplayer experience was slightly better to me, I prefer the dribbling system over the simplified one they used in 2k11. Other than that 2k11 is pretty much a definitive edition of 2k10 with a worse dunk contest, an easier dribble system, MJ and classic teams and the 2k scout dude not berating your performance. Overall 2k11 is the superior game but for some reason I had more fun on 2k10. It could be that the spin dunk and up and under layups on 2k11 were unstoppable.
The top two teams you played against online, Lakers are my team but I never used them online Kobe was cheap because online the difficulty was set to pro so he could shoot 3's like crazy plus drive and pull up and LeBron was just unstoppable once he got anywhere inside of that 3 point line, D Wade was close but not on the level of cheese they brought. Pretty much from 2k7 - 2k9 Kobe & LeBron were the go to guys in online play.
Derek Turner clearly that’s not how an NBA game looks in real life. Especially not during tipoff. American crowds during regular season just sit down and do nothing.
Ok point taken lol. So many people complain that the crowd being dead sort of is not realistic on these later 2k and live games but truthfully I've been to games and they do be pretty quiet with occasional chants.
2k16 for me ironically 2k12 is my least favorite but it has one of my favorite modes in the legends showcase. I was just upset that with 12, they got rid of crew, dunk contest and 3 point contest, d league/summer league in myplayer, speed was broken, invented shot clock cheese, the AI would take a crazy amount of 3s but with the flaws it's still fun in moderation lol.
The old Gen 2K developers put more effort into the game before the PS4/5 eras I miss the fun I had playing these games
The intro gave me chills. RIP Kobe
Fr 💯💯👊💪 Kobe rip
The fact that 2k actually showed real life Kobe plays was really nice
they need to being back these intros at the beginning, that's bad ass. I think the 2k's today are too dame realisitic, need to add a little bit of video gamey like atmosphere
3:21 'dat realism
Rip kobe 🙏💔 😢
One of the best nba 2k's ever!!!!!
Damn brings back memories I remember hitting a game winner against my friend from half court I went crazy lol
That was me on 2k8 doing that with Kobe against Boston triple teamed lol. The clutch rating actually mattered on old 2k's dudes would be like a 108 overall in the clutch.
The gameplay and player movement was better in NBA 2k9 then it is in 2k20. 2k20 is absolute garbage.

This is acutely factual and sad at the same time this realism is light years better then the current 2k😂
Still playing on PC
ps2 or ps 3
+Angel Moran ps3
+Derek “Dgame1985” Turner thanks
The graphics are so bad compare to 2k19 these days
Smh i shouldve kept this game
2k9 10 and 11 had the best atmosphere then the other 2ks
Homing Attack no doubt I think 2k9 and live 10 have the best crowds in any NBA games
I stopped playing after 10.
Crowd was jumping
This how the OG 2K’s felt from the 2000’s 💯
It’s sad how 2k went backwards, graphics are better with modern 2k, but game mechanics, and movement regressed. Back then there used to be halftime highlights, realism, presentatiin and excitement, now it’s just 10 robotic guys running around.
what happened to the intro, why did 2k change it, that was sick
Agree!
People just skip those... it’s cool the first and second time then it’s annoying
Victor you ain’t a real fan if it got annoying tht sgit would get me hyped
@@vika0194 nahhhh we wasn’t skipping this one, I always watched it
Fr
did anybody else find it hilarious when theyd dunk it and the commentators go WHOOOOOAAAA!
I love that live action intro in this game. This game got me back into 2K when I first got my 360.
g6686not the CPU cheese and glitches killed me on this game
Better than 2k20 if you ask me 🤷🏾♂️
2k9 is the best graphics
Way better.
Yo these old ones require absolute skills! Glibert arenas and rashard lewis are glitches in the game... There are so many others i know about... Just from literally playin all night long and mastering this shit... 2k8 2k9 2k10... I figured in and out... After 2k11 it jus became child play... But i remember some wars with my friends!
Absolutely they traded realism and player I’d for arcade pick up and play really this gameplay’s is better then the newest 2k
The Player REALISM & ATMOSPHERE is so immersive & engaging. Presentation & Commentating is so Vibrant. Sad 2k went away from this model.. New 2k’s are very animated.
Got a month to see what the next generation looks like
I liked this model more. It feels strange to play 2k23 cuz this was golden
Back when playing online team up 5v5 was both challenging and fun. Playing as real people and not super created ones.
I'm a madden player, but watching this brought back so many memories when I actually played 2k. The crowd is lit the PA announcer is on point the commentary is on point and looking back 10yrs ago the graphics are pretty nice as well.

One of favorite 2k games imo had the best presentation & gameplay
I liked the presentation on it, I wasn't a fan of the gameplay too much, I think 2k8 and 2k10 were better, this and 2k12 might be tied for the ones i like the least

2k wack Asf for switching 2k18 so cartoon like. This had a better feel and everything felt realistic..
I love Clark Kellogg as commentator, he says some funny things. The crowd really adds excitement too!
wow, still much better than nba live 14.
And 15. And 16.
Jesus. This game looks better then 2k23
why do the audience look more realistic than the audience in NBA 2K17
Typical Gamer the crowds from 2k9 & 2k10 were great same with live 09 & 10
Question do you think I should get 2k9 or 2k10
I prefer 2k10 due to myplayer and the final form of the dunk contest. Both has issues but 2k10 felt more polished to me. Watch videos and make a decision on which looks more fun.
Thanks I'll prefer 2k10 you've been more than a big help
You're welcome for me 2k10 is in my top 5 of favorite 2ks
2k9 and 2k11 are the best 2k games ever !
And 2k5
+ELSTON G for sure ! Lol
NBA 2k is falling downhill
But they are still way better than EA by a long shot.
ur right ea is crappy
:dead: @ Mo Williams bein the marque guy
lol mo gets buckets
Lebron travels in the first possesion of the game though aha nothing new
That 2k sports music brings back memories of this game 2k10 and 2k11
I had this on Xbox I need this again im buying
"That was a bad play there, Kev. I bet he wishes he could take that one back"
I had no idea Kevin Harlan actually appeared in a game.
Yea him and Clark popped up nothing more iconic than Craig Sager in 2k6 with different weird suits.
I remember that in the end you can watch highlights with the player of the game. All highlights!
Crazy how much better 2k7 graphics were better then this game or any other 2k on ps3 or Xbox 360. It’s honestly mind boggling
playing online was so much fun
Rip 24 Kobe 🪦🙏🙏🙏
Wow... the crowd in 2k9 was more hyper than in 2k10, i don't know why...
I thought the 2k10 crowd was live lol but the crowds fell off after 2k11 to me
(late reply lol)
The atmosphere in 2k10 was dull to me, the crowd hardly ever goes wild, until they do before the 4th half ends.
Fun fact: He uses the money ball
0:40 guest commentator vince carter
This game was the absolute shit bro
Yea it's bad because you couldn't spam Dribble or the curry shuffle or speed glitch . You actually needed skill to score
i cant believe this was the graphics back then
The best looking NBA ever.
@Kool Hggg STFU you think you're smart. It makes you an idiot to be honest this is NBA so shut up idiot
A 30 year old kobe🔥🔥
R.i.p. Kobe Bryant 😭😭😭😭😭
The NBA 2k franchise is the prime example of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
This guy doesn't know how to use kobe 😂 I'd drop 100 with him
This game has a lot more personality and has more going on presentation wise than 2k nowadays
This was the good days of 2k. Used to play tf out of this one.
I need that theme song
0:20
Unc status
They said mo Williams and the cavs instead of lebron and the cavs wtf
lmfao what drugs where they on
Why was the ball red white and blue ??
Now if i woulda bought this game from a game store he woulda been on their roster already
This makes me want to bust out the old school phat 360 and get this game! The gameplay and atmosphere look amazing for an old basketball game!
I only pick the cavs back then... Mo williams is a beast along with LeBron
Anyone knows where I can get the song that plays at the end of every quarter when they show the score and highlights?
😎
My first and favorite 2k is 2k11
Look like a next gen game lok
Here in 2024!
If your playin a full game don’t skip the interact replays
Damn boi I remember I had this when I was like 13 I think 😭
this the buzzer beater 12:48
miss these days
Do Orlando magic vs los Angeles Lakers plzz
Pre "my career" 2ks were the best.
Cause it was all about the actual gameplay and making the game as much fun for users as possible. Now it’s all about money and gameplay comes secondary, this usually happens when a company grows too popular and gets greedy. Just like Madden…
A yo derek can you tell me what you thing nba 2k10 did better than 2k11 your opinion
Dunk contest, the myplayer experience was slightly better to me, I prefer the dribbling system over the simplified one they used in 2k11. Other than that 2k11 is pretty much a definitive edition of 2k10 with a worse dunk contest, an easier dribble system, MJ and classic teams and the 2k scout dude not berating your performance. Overall 2k11 is the superior game but for some reason I had more fun on 2k10. It could be that the spin dunk and up and under layups on 2k11 were unstoppable.
I remember had brought this game from game stop
Back when you could cheese with Kobe and Lebron all fucking game. Especially Lebron with his ridiculous finishing.
The top two teams you played against online, Lakers are my team but I never used them online Kobe was cheap because online the difficulty was set to pro so he could shoot 3's like crazy plus drive and pull up and LeBron was just unstoppable once he got anywhere inside of that 3 point line, D Wade was close but not on the level of cheese they brought. Pretty much from 2k7 - 2k9 Kobe & LeBron were the go to guys in online play.
@@DerekTurner1985 T Mac, Gilbert, LeBron, Kobe, Melo & AI.. if you knew how to get buckets with these guys it was over
what is the name of the BGM at beginning?
Can u do the rematch of the Lakers and Nuggets when they were in the Western Conference Finals?
my ps3 is broken I only have 2k2, 2k3, 2k4, 2k5, 2k6 and 2k15 left
What about 2k15 with the Hawks vs Cavs in East Finals?
Ok
+Derek “Dgame1985” Turner Since you have a new PS3, why don't you try and do Lakers VS Nuggets in 2K9?
I'll see what I can do, since I've moved I haven't even hooked up my ps3 or 360 lol
THEY NEEDA BRING BACK THIS INTRO W THAT SONG
Not a huge difference in the graphix
😍🏀👍👏💚
🤓

That crowd is in the mobile
YO THAT INTRO SHEEEEEEEEEEEESH
Best NBA 2k ever
Kevin Garnett
Crowd is way too hyped.
What's wrong with the crowd being hype?
Derek Turner clearly that’s not how an NBA game looks in real life. Especially not during tipoff. American crowds during regular season just sit down and do nothing.

Why the graphics better here?
No clue I thought they always looked the same
My favorite is NBA 2k12
2k16 for me ironically 2k12 is my least favorite but it has one of my favorite modes in the legends showcase.
