NBA 2K17 addresses most of my biggest issues from last year in cutting out canned animations and going back to basics with MyCareer, and it's still as polished as ever. It's easy to take its excellence for granted, but Visual Concepts' ambition and willingness to take risks keeps it from ever becoming stale. NBA 2K17 is the champion, and it's tough to see it losing that title anytime soon.
NBA 2K17 is significantly better than NBA 2K16: simply, this is again the best basketball simulation videogame on the market.

NBA 2K17 was and still is the GREATEST NBA 2K game of all time. The graphics are still incredible. The soundtrack is still incredible. 2K17 has my favorite gameplay. Every other NBA 2K game before AND after just pales in comparison to NBA 2K17. I will forever cherish and miss the good times I had when this game first came out.

NBA 2K17 isn't the most forgiving experience for newcomers to the franchise, but if you know your virtual basketball, this is the one and only place to be this year.
2K crew did a great job in making NBA 2K17 even more indispensable than the previous one and to restrain any alternative offer.
It is the most accomplished basketball game out there without a doubt, and one of the most rewarding sporting games on the market.
While it pushes the series forward the on-court moment to moment action is just beginning to show signs of age.
Graphically, the game is hit or miss, littered with glitches and inconsistent quality seen in the player models. Throw in a lack of overall improvement year over year, and we’re left with a game that is good, but definitely not at the level we’re used to.
I love the game and all of it's amazing features, my only complaint is the **** you do pretty much anything you'll get a foul... Other than that the game is a solid mix of real life basketball and a little bit of showmanship... :)

It is an amazing and addictive game if you love the Nba.
The bad thing I find in this game and in general to all the annual games is that there are not many changes in its sequels.
The first graphics are incredible but they have almost nothing of difference with the previous delivery.
The gameplay also does not have a difference with the previous delivery, improves the career mode and the GM. That if in comparison with other annual games this game is the best of all time (fifa, etc)
In conclusion is an addictive game that can entertain you for dozens of hours. Although if you have a recent previous game as the nba 2k15 or 16 I do not recommend buying this video game as it does not offer something spectacular that sets you apart from previous releases.

Love it the magma is fantastic the only thing is when you play a game your center is always at the top the of the key, forcing you to fix that. Not too many game play flaws except for some animations that force your player yo pick up the ball just to get it stripped among immediate contact from the defender.

HUGE step backwards from NBA 2K16. There are some nice new features in this game like league expansion in MyGM and MyLeague but the gameplay has been ruined. Fouls are completely out of control. They upped the foul sliders to the point where if someone gets the ball in the post, they will be at the line when the play is over. It has made overall game play slower and MyCareer unplayable. Fastbreaks have been ruined to try to force you to play more halfcourt offense. The AI players will not run in front of you in transition and almost always stop at the three point line even if they have terrible three point shooting stats. The substitution menu is much harder to use than in previous years but once you get used to it, it isn't all that bad. Also, VC is much harder to use this year as part of EA's never ending conquest to take as much money from their fans as possible. The MyCareer storyline is kind of interesting but if your goal is to play with real NBA players then you will be disappointed because there are two made up players and one of them will follow you even if you are traded and the other will dominate the league whether you are on the same team or not. I regret purchasing this game for the opening price of $60 because it is basically a roster update with worse gameplay. Wait for a price drop if you really want it and don't waste money on the VC because EA will continue to milk this cash cow and make it even harder to earn VC next year. Until then, keep enjoying 2k16 because it is a much better game.
