100This 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.

90The most realistic basketball game on the market. It's an accurate representation of the sport and captures a lot of the intangibles extremely well. It's got enough gameplay available to keep both the arcade and simulation contingents happy.

90The remedy to a lot of gamers out there that want the control of "NBA Street" but the entire NBA roster and the pro ball experience.

90There are so many nuances to the look of this game; it'd be a feeble task trying to list them. Needless to say, it's stunning.

Definitely the best basketball game available. Give-and-go passing system is a big step forward and the shot stick helps score easy baskets. Unfortunately, the camerawork is not on the same level with the other aspects of the game. [Feb 2006]

88While the tweaks to isomotion and shooting are the most obvious improvements made to an already solid basketball simulation, it's the leaps forward in artificial intelligence that ultimately define NBA 2K6's quality.

88Some great gameplay innovations and the standard offering of online play are hampered only by a few AI missteps and some problematic animation sets. The 24/7 and Association modes join together to offer a solid amount of gameplay for fans of any brand of basketball.
