    Spectucular. Unbelievable graphics. So real, you'd swear you were watching a live game. And the sweat engine? Crazy. If you love ball, a must pickup.

    The graphics are outstanding. I love the crib. I am a big 2k sports fan and I have to say this is the best 2k game ever. This is the best basketball game this year and might be the best ever.

    The graphics are so real that you would sware you are watching a real game. 24/7 mode is great. I would give it an 11 if I could of.

    Fully agree with the EGM reviewers. Ignore the rather suspicious user reviews and rent it if you're curious first.

    This is the best basketball game ever. I loved 2k5 and when I saw 2k6 for XBOX & PS2 I was shocked with how good the graphics were. Now on the 360 the graphics are even better, and they didnt take away anything like NBA Live 06 & Madden 06. This game deserves an 11 but the highest possible score here is a 10.

    I highly reccomend this game. When I first saw the demo I thought I was watching a real broadcasting NBA game! I love 24/7 mode. With 24/7 mode 2k6 is like a 2 in 1, an NBA game and a street game. 2k sports has beat EA Sports (and 989 sports!) this time.

    This game is awesome! It is such an improvement from the 2K5 version. THese are some of the best graphics I have ever seen on a sports game.

    This game is 100% better than NBA Live and NBA 2006. The graphics are as real as it could get.

    This game has always been better than live, live is not a nba game it is some kind of old school basketball game but 2k6 is for real ballers live is for wannabe ballers.

    This game is truely incredible.I just cant understand how all these critics are so changable by voting one way from the original x-box version and then giving a lower score for the 360 version when there has been nothing but complete improvements on the x-box 360.The game is definetly the best out of all the years from which it started at nba 2k on the dreamcast.I cant say enough good about this game!The only reason why I dont give it a ten is cause there is a few areas that could of been touched up to make it the perfect basketball game but for sure I give it a 9.3.… Expand

    All I have to say is WOW! I can't believe the graphics on this game. This is a must have for any Basketball fan or sports fan. $60 Just may be worth it.

    2K6's biggest setback -- it doesn't have the instant visual appeal, next-gen look, or out-and-out raw emotion that gamers want to see in a next-gen sports game.

    A solid basketball title that really rests on the laurels of its predecessors. Even though the game can look absolutely amazing at time, it's still, at its heart, the same exact game that we saw in the current generation.

    NBA 2K6 looks fantastic if you have an HDTV, but the gameplay will seem familiar to you if you've played one of the other versions of the game already.
