    Playable game.

    I've been playing this game since it came out. There are a couple of things that I like and dislike.  
      
    Things I dislike:  
    Their response to our controllers can be frustrated and slow.  When you want to press a shooting button or stick, sometimes you get stuck and not shoot at all... maybe a little pump fake.  It just drives me crazy sometimes when they passed me the ball and it went over my head or cause me to be off-balance when I had a chance to shoot the three-pointer. I caught the ball sometimes and wanted to shoot before the defenders catch up but it turns out sometimes I press a shooting button/stick and it wouldn't shoot fully or mess up my timing. The dribbling technique isn't very good... if you control the dribbles very well, it can be good, sometimes even amazing moves. It just depends on how good you control it.   
     
    Things I like: 
      Their statistic features are pretty awesome, very precise.  Many people like the numbers so if you like to impress your numbers to your friends online or in "My Player" mode/The Association, this game is for you.  I like playing the association and my player. Sometimes, my player can be annoying when your CPU teammates wouldn't pass you while you're wide open outside... I just wish they wouldn't use a player lock in that mode. I hope in the NBA 2k12, they would remove the player locks and let a player control everybody on his/her team so it wouldn't be so boring.  
     
    I like this game... it's fun to play and it's relaxing for me.

       As a fan of basketball, the NBA, and Michael Jordan, the release of NBA 2K11 felt a great deal like Christmas morning.  NBA 2K11 is a basketball game that promises a recreation of Michael Jordan in his prime, a full featured state of the art basketball experience, and a full overhaul to the series' modes and presentation.  It's a lot for a year to year iterative title and, surprisingly, NBA 2K11 almost accomplishes everything it sets out to do.  However, like the greatest basketball player of a...

      NBA 2K11-Attempted Review 0

       I’m not professional or even particularly experienced as a game journalist quite yet, but I do have a set of ideals that I think my reviews should adhere to. One such idea is my theory that, when applicable, the reviewer should try every part of a game they might expect a reader to experience. NBA 2K11 does not give a damn about my review-writing ideals. As a long time fan of the franchise (wow, I’ve been playing this series for literally half my life) I knew there would be something for me i...
