Starfox on SNES changed everything with that 3D gameplay.

starfox on 64 with the rumble pack in the game changed everything

the rumble pack with this and turok and the extension pack with donkey kong 64 kept pushing the world further.


Who knew how much a vibration could change a game.

does it? I mean, maybe not major advances every year, but there is progress. phones are getting better. tvs are getting better. cars are getting better. Video games aren't really technology, but the by product of technological advances, like movies; and to be fair, video game systems are the best they've ever been. It's not stopping other games from growing and moving forward. 2k waiting on PS5? :x

I get what your saying but to there credit 2k is one of the best looking games on the current gen of platforms . U might be taking for granted how good looking graphically this game is.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

NBA 2K Throughout the years (2K1 - 2K16)

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Graphic comparisons between titles. There were definitely years that weren't as visually groundbreaking.

i'm dead @ that pic of Lamar Odom with no neck

 

[keel252]

My god the Hawks jerseys are trash :x

 

[617collector]

NBA2k is the only game I look forward to every single year

COD is dead.

I'm in the minority, but when 2k comes out it is usually the beginning of the video game season in my house.

2k5 was

College Hoops 2k8 may be the best basketball video game ever made.

Way ahead of its time. Just like ESPN 2K5 is still the best football game ever made. 11 years later

Only game I look forward too.

 

[Ja's 2¢]

have they announced who is replacing Kerr in the booth?

and still waiting for 2k to spend that money for an official TNT broadcast presentation. Stop wasting money on those "curated" soundtracks.

Looks slightly better than 2K15. Meh

Are you honestly expecting a significant graphical update? If so, why?

 

[af1nike]

I and others notice a dip in graphics from 14 to 15. I would expect at least to look better than 14

 

[abematic]

2K and NFSU2 is what I am looking forward to. 

 

[617collector]

Hell yeah NBA2k n NFS are being picked up on the first day

 

[freeze]

it also makes a difference what system those pix were from. the dreamcast version never looked that bad. that was one of the major selling points of 2k-2k3, the real crowds and bodies. not that 2D goldeneye face ****. first 2 pix looks like kobe bryant courtside on n64.

i hated 2k7. they completely messed up the bodies by removing everyone's neck. it was so ******ed

don't forget there was a time in the 00's where Live was king

The hell do you mean why I've spent good money on these "next gen" systems and their are only a few games that actually show their "next gen" acumen and 2K has been stagnant with the same visuals since the first iteration on these consoles with actually 2K14 looking the best. Excuse me for wanting the same visual fidelity ala games like The Order, Ryse, MGS5, DriveClub, The Show, etc. If a graphics engine overhaul has to be done it's time. We're on the third year bro I'm tired of looking at the same ****

 

[dennistrane]

Live used to be the sh*t back when EA actually cared about their games
