    This year's game clears up almost any blemishes that may have carried over through the years, and perfects the package in a way that blew my socks off.

    It gets even better with the new feedback system that has been implemented. At the conclusion of each game you play online, you can either rate your opponent positive, negative or neutral.

    I am not ALLOWED to buy any more games, and the only time I can play is when I SNEAK off to my buddies place (Per MY WIFE!!) However, I have played NBA 2K6 at my buddies place, and it is the most realistic basketball out there. The graphics are great, and the gameplay is awesome!!!… Expand

    I personally feel the control changes and tuning made 2k6 even worse this year. 2k3 was the top of their form and now it's all just show.
