The Greatest NBA 2K Game of All Time

- Опубликовано: 13 фев 2020
- NBA 2K11 is the NFL 2K5 of basketball video games. Nothing else comes close. I could see an argument for NBA 2K12-16, but 2K11 was the game that ended NBA Live and took 2K to the next level. The first 2K to have historic teams, and before VC. Goat status

No sports game has ever consumed my life the way 2k11 did. Having the crowd chant “trade him” after being a dick in press conferences is galaxy brain level immersion
Holly shit its Set the Edge 😍
Same!! Hahahaha
That’s realism at a different level
I have NBA 2K11 for the wii and even for the wii it totally rocks
Like the wii version is literally NBA 2K11 Xbox 360/PS3 version but with NBA 2K5 graphics
They need to bring back that mode when you could do a MyPlayer Mode with an active NBA player.
Create a legend
Copa DNA player in create player mode
or a historical player
fr i used Eddie House had 90 three man was the Stephen Curry on Miami big 3
YES that mode was awesome I’m sure they could make it even more in-depth now
2K in 2010: Let's make games because we love the sport.
2K in 2020: Let's make games because we love money
....Yet
TomIscoolTV Doing the “_ will do worse” argument is how these corporations make you eat shit and like it. Just neglect their brands if they’re too focused on P2W systems.
EVERYTHING has always been and always will be about money. That’s what happens when you live in a capitalist society.
MrBlueD3V1L Because having 15 different brands of toothpaste is truly improving your life.
More like... Today "Let's make a game for a bunch of little kids that don't know $hit about basketball and let them run around like idiots. 2k16 best of all time.
The Jordan Challenge was revolutionary. 2k21 needs to introduce The Kobe Challenge
First challenge. Make Shaq and lakers trip out as you play as Kobe playing basketball without the ball.
Samuel Kiger you talkin about Mike Ock right? Lol congratulations, & remember... wash your hands.

ngl this was the game that got me into 2k
This game got me into basketball, it's just so crazy to me
Bruh same
Razz nba 2k3 for me
2k6
2k2009 for me
Intro played for .2 seconds thumb went up immediately
Nothing will ever beat booting this game up for the first time with my boys.. and that surprise of his first finals game...pure bliss
Facts
I played the hell out of this game for years. My dad is a HUGE Jordan fan and not a fan of video games. For the past few years, he’s played this game endlessly until the 360 gave out on him. I made him a 99 OVR and he’d tell me how mad MJ would get when my dad’s player dunked on him or his teammates. This game is huge for me for that reason but it absolutely catapulted the 2k basketball game. Great video man. I love your work!
Robbie Ruviews well buy your dad another 360 pal! You’ll remember that happiness for the rest of your life!
Same here bro nba2k11 will always be the greatest of all time game
Nba 2k21 needs to be just like nba 2k11 for Kobe Bryant 🥺
Cincier Braswell well said bro!
🥺
I agree 1 million percent
yeah right
Totally agree.Kobe Bryant mode !
Definitely the greatest 2k ever
Miss that era so much. My opinion may not matter but I dont think any next gen Basketball game has lived up to 2k11 IMO. Never enjoyed a sports game as much as I did that much!
Fact ✊💯
Best sports game ever
Other than the cheese online but it was fun to squad up with friends and play legit games
@@eyeconqueror1185 NFL 2K2-2K5 is up there too
This was my first NBA 2k game when it first released. I skipped my final class of the day during high school at the time to get it at gamestop. I was always a pc gamer so when I tried my hand at Mycarrer I absolutely sucked. I actually got sent down to the D league after getting drafted in the second round by the Kings. True story this was the last 2k to my knowledge that had the feature of sending your created my player down to the D league if you weren't ready. After about 10 games I got signed by the Toronto Raptors. At that point I had gotten used to the game. I played the whole season and carried my team to the semi finals and lost. Sure I could of cheesed the CPU and forced a win by decreasing the difficulty to rookie mode but it felt great trying to overcome the HOF adversity. Fast forward to season 2.. I won MVP and carried the Raptors to their first ring. Felt amazing and I was hooked. I made 4 new friends at school and they made me their PG for their online crew mode team. We won many games and had a fantastic record. So much fun had and when I think back I smirk. Those 4 friends are still till this day very close and we game almost every day. 3 even attended my wedding. I still play 2k but it's not the same. RIP 2k11.
The D league was fun!
That’s how games should be and make you feel💯
Wow
I was a freshman when this came out skip allot that year also
no BS in that intro when my man said "you ready?" before forcing me to play that initial game it was the only video game that hyped me up to the point of chills
Lol. When you're coming out the tunnel with MJ and the Un-Stop-A-Bulls, right?! I remember hat moment as well.
What that moment is legendary. I remember feeling like I was going out the tunnel with Jordan and I literally played my heart out.v
I still play NBA 2k11 'til now. 12 years later and I still enjoy it. Deleted NBA 2k14 - 19, but 2k11 is here to stay.
Back when MyPlayer was actually playable.
And you actually had to work to improve your player
TheBeastAmongUs skill points before it was VC
Without needing internet connection to play
honestly, even if you pay to win with vc to upgrade, you still dont get guarenteed dubs. if their playing against someone who knows their releases and can hit green all day, pay to win doesnt always win. thats how i dominate with a 72. greens all day baby
The last MyPlayer that I played was the Spike Lee year, and I didn't even finish it. Why does it have to have a story? I don't want that crap!
My friends and I played the shit out of the NBA 2K series from 2k6 to 2k11. '11 was the pinnacle of our experience before we all went are separate ways in life. So many great memories.
The soundtrack from this game is a nostalgia bomb unlike any other.
2k11 and 2k16 are in the Hall of Fame in 2k history. 2k16 will always be my favorite due to it being free on PSN, the soundtrack, the awesome parks, and the way it felt. If you had a crew, you could easily spend hours playing and not feel bad because the game was just that much fun.
I don't think people realize how important this game was for not only basketball but sports in general. 2K10 was a fun game but the hype and excitement of being able to play with MJ in a game is what drew everyone in and the modes and features in the game is what made everyone stay.
U know it’s good when it’s 2k11. By softdrink
No disrespect to softdrink, but you know it's good when it's 2k11 in general
Micah Hendrix true.
Best MyPlayer ever. It was legitimately difficult to ball out in the rookie combine and do well as a low overall rookie and it was really satisfying to upgrade your player and watch him get better. So much replayability with different playstyles and different scenarios that would happen like crazy trades. I remember being an all star point guard on the Suns and Lebron actually joined me in free agency.
2k11 was one of the reasons I started playing basketball, been playing for 10 years and it's now my life passion
I was 14 when this came out. Playing the Jordan games with my dad watching and the look on his face was one of the moments I’ll always remember with him. He loves Jordan.
I wasted a lot of hours in this game and I don’t regret a single min of it, this game will always have a special place in my heart!
XCHOZENX dame here bro ✊🏼
I’m about to buy it again right now!! I miss that ish
This was the last 2K game that I remember logging serious time into. Even downloaded all the custom stadium music off a 2K forum and it made the game even more immersive. Sports games as a whole have been trending down for the last decade. 60$ roster updates
This is overall an awesome video. You really took me back to the good ol days of 2K. It makes me even more thankful I got to enjoy the franchise in its prime. It's so sad to see how it has turned out today & I hope we see 2K rise back up to this level
I totally agree with you on the timeline of the development from 2k11 - 2k16 ...it was progressing so well, even though I actually like the graphics from 2k11 - 2k13, the gameplay got better. The games today aren’t as fun as the old ones. Sad.
Hands down the best basketball game ever. The amount of content was insane. The first game to have Jordan in forever. The Jordan challenge great and really took me back to some great memories. 10/10🔥🔥🔥
I swear i ignore story and bs in today 2k cause everything already planned, if I play trash ill still make it to the nba but in 2k11 you play trash your get send to the d league, i love that factor made you want actually you just play the game to win on special on HOF where you actually get rewarded for difficulty. Today everyone averages 100ppg and doesn't feel like we accomplish anything cause were only doing it to get badges so we can actually feel dominate and play the park. Also today mode so easy score and good teammates feel like they got the 2k11 Patrick Beverly curse
It's too bad 2K now only focuses on the park and my team. SMH
They need a kobe one just like this 1 next year
I think they will do one for Kobe, next gen will be awesome
Donald Trump NBA2K17: Am I a joke to you?
We definitely need the Kobe Challenges
NBA 2K17: Legend Edition cover looks nice
Exactly!
I love your vids man. I turned notifications on a while back and don’t regret it. You’re spot on with everything you say about football and basketball ball games. I can’t wait to see what you have planned for this channel, keep it up brother!🙏🏻 (Would love to see NFL fever, NFL Street retrospectives)
NFL fever 2004 was so underrated and they had a basketball series call NBA inside drive I had 2003 with Paul Pierce on the cover.
I loved 2k11 because that’s the last year I remember rubber banding not being in the game. If somebody outplayed you by 30 points you got beat by 30 points. Now if you outplay a guy by 30 points you win by like 17 points maybe less than that.
2k13 did not have rubberbanding or neither did 2k14 not have rubberbanding on PS3.
osurocks 24 I disagree.
I havent played 2k in years. What do you mean by this? The game will make you miss shots if you get too far ahead?
@@Dc225_ basically, 2k wants EVERY game to some bs nailbiter, down to wire, close game. I HATE IT. In 2k15, they literally set your players consistency to shit, to guarantee you'll have a difficult time closing out games (as in you'll start missing layups in the 4th quater)
sounds like fifa's momentum mechanic. on the one hand i get the "realism" factor in shifting momentum, but this is a videogame and should be purely based on the players skill
Thanks for the video. This is one of my favorite sports games of all time. Your work here inspired me to find my old PC copy and get it back up and running. Great stuff.
I have 3 copies of this game.
No Lie I still play.
DarkTimes y u need 3 lol I got 4 copies of 2k12 and 10
I remember being so young and playing on my xbox 360 when my parents brought this game home. I had no interest in basketball and was surprised that they would even bring a basketball game home as they had never bought games as a surprise for me. I loaded up the game for the first time and remember just how much I loved it. It started my love for basketball and this game means so much to me.
I remember as a kid, when my dad came home with this game. I was so hyped, good memories.
Thank u for this amazing video, gave me such a nostalgic feeling, I was in high school when this game came out, what an absolute experience, this game was so ahead of it's time, the Jordan challenge was to die FOR!!
They’re adding the Jordan challenge in 2k23
Hurt my back in 2013 and had a kid I coached tell me how good 2k was. I had quit playing basketball games around 2000 because they were boring. So I start playing 2k13 and I loved it. Have played everyone since. I do have 2k10 and 2k11 on PS3 but never even took the wrapper off. I’m in the process of buying all the2K’s just to have them as a collector! This video has me wanting to play 2k11 and has earned you another sub! Great video and it’s time to bing watch some more of yours!
The only thing that NBA2K lacks is Charles Barkely
Ronald Dave and Reggie miller
and Rasheed Wallace
He’s not gonna join until they pay the legends fairly💯
I remember my brother and I playing NBA live all the way into 2010! But I had a couple buddy’s that had swore by 2k since 2k8. The first time I remember playing a 2k game was 2k10 on my buddy’s Xbox360 I was a huge Kobe fan so you know I had to check the post game and fadeaways out and I gotta tell you it was a night and day difference from live . That’s when I realized something felt different but I was stuck on which brand was more noticeable and who had most of the rights to the NBA. (EA). When 2k11 came out I remember me and my brother being in Sams with my mom luckily my brother and I had 30 dollars a piece for some reason that day we put our money together and brought it for the PS3. We got home popped it in and was blown away. My brother picked the Knicks and I had the Lakers and played at MSG. I looked at my brother and said we are never getting a Live game ever again.
Hey! RUclips has recommended me a bunch of your videos recently, and I’m very glad for it! I love sports video games, so I enjoy hearing your criticisms and comments about them. I also love how much you reference older games like in this video, and your backbreaker video. I keep getting Summoning Salt vibes from your channel (even down to the same music being used), and I fully expect you to blow up soon. Keep up the great work man!
You are one of the best youtubers when it comes to this retrospective topic. You deserve a like and a subscribe. Keep up the amazing work!
This game was a movie. Those Jordan mode games were so adrenaline inducing. I felt like I was Jordan.
All your videos are poignant but I love you for this one Bruh! 🙏
Hey thanks for this... the first 2K I ever played was 15... loved 16 and haven't played it since... 17 on has been horrible... it's very surprising to hear that 2K had it right or was definitely on the right track that far back.

Beautiful video man, really enjoyed it.
5:27 "Patrick Oo-ing"
iDub42 i just was looking at the commenting to find this😭🤣
You caught that huh
Thought I was the only one that caught that, glad I kept scrolling down.
I knew somebody would comment on that one. 😂😂😂
Lmfao it sound like he said gooing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had all versions from 2k11 to 2k16 - still pull them out from time to time. 11, 12 and 15 were my favorite ones
great commentary my man. loved the video. thumbs up for sure
Great video. Got me all damn nostalgic, man.
BTW, it also had the best sports game theme song. Snoop Dogg said it right: "NBA 2k11 - best game ever made."
I went 0-20 to start an 82 game season before I figured it out. You had to actually call plays! Changed my world....best bball game ever.
@5:28 Patrick “Oohhwing” 😂 But Frfr my first 360 game was this game when I graduated high school. And man it was wayyyyy too legendary, hands down!!!
Keep up the great work, love your stuff :)
Fantastic video! It'll never be as good as this again sadly.
this was the greatest game ever made just like Snoop said on the soundtrack. I was ranked 31 in the world online ranked play and loved it❤️

@Jason Barker I hear you don't ever take your relationship with your dad for granted my dad passed away when I was 17. I remember when he and I would stay up till 3:00 in the morning playing Pac-Man when I was in the third grade on Atari ❣️
I played this game more than every bball ever made combined.
8:28 ..that actually happened to me. My aunt and dad both thought I was watching a game on tnt.
Just gotta say you narrated the hell out of this video ..I like it bro
Love your videos keep up the good work

On the wii?

@@austinhamilton7775 I had the controller thing you could buy for it.

This is my absolute favorite 2K game for sure! I remember being so hyped leading to its release. The game didn't disappoint, and I played a heck ton of it.
Easily my most favorite 2k of all time. Always has been.
What do you recommend to do when you first hop in
This game has the best game mechanics out of all the NBA 2k games. It's the perfect blend of realism and arcade style. I wish 2k would implement this style of gameplay in the newer NBA 2k games. NBA 2k11 proves that gameplay is much more important than graphics.
I remember picking it up day one. Stayed up all day playing. The gameplay was great and the Jordan Challenges brought back memories of my Bulls. And seeing some retro teams was even better. They did a great job with 2K11.
Just for that goosebumps intro alone I was hooked when I played it the first time
Dope game I remember playing for hours

great video man!!!!
one thing i used to always do back then was add the NBA on NBC theme to my arena music for game intros, timeouts, halftime, player of the game, etc. then bump the crowd volume all the way up for that classic NBA on NBC feel.
This and the NBA Jam reboot came out on the same day. That’s some cheese!
sgttombw I still got both too 💯💯💯💯
2k11, 15 and 16 are legendary games that’s sadly 2k will never top 🤦🏾♂️💯

"This soundtrack slapped"😭😭
Do NBA 2k13 retrospective. That was led the best gameplay in the series history with games similar to it in NBA 2k14-2k18 PS3.
osurocks 24 nah 2k was the best
osurocks 24 lmao nigga that’s one of the worst 2k’s ever ppl forget how broken they game truly was
@@hassanhaulcy Other than the scoreboard disappearing every once and a while I never had problem with that game. Your thinking of 2k12 probably because I always hear that game has bugs all the time and people hated for that. I love 2k12 though because of the features in that game. And I still play 2k13 till this day.
Hassan Haulcy RIGHT! 2k13 was an absolute cheese fest! You couldn’t block dunks, pre-patched Acrobat level 3 allowed you to shoot literal euro step 3s, the spin dunk cheese animation could be triggered anywhere on the court and you couldn’t stop it, and they patched it to where you couldn’t reach at all without getting a foul so all your steals had to be from passes. It was fun for the time, but looking back it, the game was absolutely broken
osurocks 24 couldn’t block dunks, the euro step jump shot that any player with a 75+ rating could make, the spin dunk cheese, dude Gerald green and nick young were as good as Kd on that game 💀
Great vid as always 👍!
All the memories this video brought me was amazing
This was the first 2k game I ever bought I fell in the love with it
Who else remember playing the Jordan Challenges?!?! It was Lit 🔥
Man you brought back so many memories just from the intro 😭
Hell yeah that intro is legendary it still gives me goosebumps to this day!!!
Getting done with class freshmen year of college to head back to the dorm and grind on my player all night. Listening to the sound track brought back memories
nba 2k12 has the best intro of all 2k's, tell me i'm wrong
Wrong
Not wrong
NewAgeOutlaw716 what then? Had best song and dope ass passing and shooting combination in the start
@@Skinslyfe 2K11 🤷
2k16s was pretty good too
This was my second 2k game
I still have my 2K 11 collecting dust next to the tv. My Bulls vs Knicks games on my channel will certainly bring back some memories.
I lived 30 min from Chicago during the 90’s as a teen. This game was a love letter to us especially in Chicago. I remember when this came out, no game has grabbed me like this did. My favorite game of all time.
When 2K cared more about game quality instead of microtransactions and park
true
Lunatic Reviews they don’t care about park either if they did they would give us park Affiliations back
i just bought 2k8 - 2k12 on 360 for $15 i cant wait
That's the golden era. Those 5 are still the only ones I still always play. 2k10 is my personal favorite, but 2k9, 11 and 12 are all so close. 2k10 just holds a special place in my heart.
Lit
Good video, 2k11 was my first game since the last one I bought 2k7 and I loved the Michael Jordan challenge also 2k16 was my favorite for my player.. 2k11 and 16 are my favorite 👍
Great video!
Yes indeed. I played this game for 3 years straight. Also, I like that you could modify the real players just like the created players. 2K18 isn’t bad either.
I wish I could see how many hours I put in on this game because I know I basically skipped 2K12 and didn't really care about 2K13 so I was on this game kinda heavy no lie. I played a couple MyPlayer games and a few online head to head matches during Lockdown in 2020 and the game still felt exactly the same as it did to me when I was 14 staying up to 4 in the morning on a school night playing crew with the homies lmao
Dudeee this seriously was such a great game. Its the first 2k that i started to play more competitive against friends and family and I've had some great times, i must say.
this was 2k at it's best.....before the corruption of vc. remember picking this up on midnight release (it was the last one worth doing that) and playing it that morning. the intro was simply amazing. still remember it to this day. playing as jordan was a dream, but the features, historic teams and gameplay were icing on the cake. it's sad, but it will probably never happen again.
BOY WHEN THAT OVER BY DRAKE CAME ON JUST KNOW I WAS FINNA BALL OUT ‼️💯
2K10 Took off with Kobe on the cover and MyPlayer first went in depth with the gameplay. Only right that 2K21 have Kobe back on the cover and this time give us Kobe moments (Like they gave us Jordan moments in 2K11) to relive and play through and when we unlock him, we play his career out starting as a rookie in the 2021 season. I hope somebody see’s this at 2K and makes it happen. Share this if you a Kobe or NBA 2K fan - b_d Side Note for 2K, we will all buy 2 copies most likely. 1 to save and 1 to play. So how bout no VC like back in the day. You can pay for clothes or tats n all that. But let me earn my skill points with gym workouts like the old 2K, that’s the real way. That’s DOING WORK like Kobe. Thank you I’m done
This was def my fav 2k these were the days I use to camp outside of gamestop for midnight release this game definitely lived up to the hype.
Didn’t realize how dope that game was until now. Trying to replicate Jordan’s accompliments was a nice touch
Easily, the GOAT 2k. I've actually only bought 16,17, & 19 since because I felt all the others have been a massive downgrade.
8:45 I see you with the Dbrown 99 overall my career
This is dope broski
