I wasn't blown away with the myplayer movie. That's not what myplayer is for. Yes the storyline is important but it has to be empty and generalized. But this was an annoying dream of freaking Spike Lee and he's making us play it. I hated the fact that all the colleges you can pick are colleges that were good in the early 80s. High Schools are all brooklyn high schools. It is extremely stupid. Please don't bring Spike Lee back. He took this situation to make his dream and screwed everyone who isn't from New York. I hope there is going to be a DLC but regardless I loved the gameplay and if you just ignore certain things about the storyline myplayer is still great and innovative. Other than that 2k16 once again hit to me. I loved it. And once again I play it like a fiend.… Expand

   Spike Lee forced me to have a biological black twin. Check and mate. Why is there even a face scanner? Every year, you're forced to role playSpike Lee forced me to have a biological black twin. Check and mate. Why is there even a face scanner? Every year, you're forced to role play as Vanilla Ice or Michael Rappaport. This year I have to role-play as a dude with Vitiligo or Albino disease.
   Not being able to spend vc on specific attributes is a form of freemium. They force you to grind for a very long time if you want to perfect a certain attribute, seducing you to spend extra money. But even then, I can't create the specialty player with the advantages/disadvantages I want him to have. And what sense does it make to force me to build a big man's moving 3pt if I want to improve his FT?
   So I didn't have any high hopes for the white characters being non-douchebags. But why did the corny ass story go light on the He Got Game and heavy on the UPN+Lifetime+After School Special? Let's get Oliver Stone on the case next time, kthanx.… Expand

   2K Sports is pretty much ripping it's customer off again, but this year it's worse than ever...
   
   My review is pretty much just about the2K Sports is pretty much ripping it's customer off again, but this year it's worse than ever...
   
   My review is pretty much just about the MyCareer mode. While this years story mode is pretty much nice, it has a lot of flaws and feels cheesy. There was so much potential in it, but Spike Lee dropped the ball on it with implementing WAY too much drama in it. Every cutscene is pretty much the same: characters fighting and then getting friends again... Then the whole story is over after your first season. Then that's it with cutscenes. You'll never see those characters again, at least I didn't.
   
   But that's not my problem with the game. It's that 2K forces you to buy VC if you want to be successful in MyCareer mode. Not just succesful, you even need a lot of VC to even have fun in this game mode.
   
   While being the superstar in HS and college, with feeling like you're playing MJ, you quickly realize in your very first NBA game, that you'r just a 55 overall (65 if you've spent your 10,000 preorder VC) that had it's stats boosted in the HS/College games.
   
   So I'm a SG inside scorer and couldn't hit ANY shot that wasn't right in front of the basket. But then I hardly can get near the basket at all because I'm way too slow to get ANY opposing player. I drop the ball at the slightest contact and bounce off every guy like I'm made of rubber. And then my agent is telling me I'm the guy that shoulders this team and is the upcoming superstar? Doesn't feel like that at all. Well at least as I'm not spending another 20 bucks on VC so my player gets to proper NBA rookie ratings to start enjoying the game.
   
   This is not how you design a major game mode 2K. I know it shouldn't be easy and I do want a challenge, but this is a punch in the face of every paying customer. As it's just that hard to rip off some extra bucks to enjoy a game that we've already paid 60 bucks for.
   
   So don't buy if you wanted to play the MyCareer mode.… Expand

It feels exactly like 15, and they even made the controls worse. There are tons of glitches that we don't even know will be patched including Demigod glitches. MyCareer just seemed like a low-rate movie to me. You don't make a lot of decisions, it's just a bunch of stupid cut-scenes to make it look like a new experience. The story is literally set to the life of a black player. You have a black biological twin sister with BOTH BLACK PARENTS, meaning if you use a white player, (you'll have a black twin sister). You grow up in the projects, which is common for certain African Americans. You can add your voice to the game, but it just sounds awkward to me. It just seems like 2K is led to believe that they don't have any white fans. The face-scans are completely horrible. It's obvious that Chris Smoove lied about his face-scan saying that it was good. You could OBVIOUSLY see that it looked nothing like him. Live has better face-scans and you do it from your phone! The High School and College stuff only lasts for 4 games, so I don't even call that an addition. The only reason why I'm giving this a 2 is because even though it is a refurbished game, it is still a solid simulation basketball game, but it just gets boring after while. And I've experienced my fair share of glitches, and I think it's time that I take this back to the store.… Expand

Good improvement from last year... They listen to the fans on the blogs...
