This game is a pretty decent game, but just lacks new things to do every year. They need more creativity and depth in this game, but still solid overall game. 2 easy to score compared to the college game.

This game is great, but I'll start off with this: It is much, much better for the Xbox 360 and PS3. The graphics on NBA 2K8 aren't that great, but are good enough. The gameplay is what really sticks out in this game. It is easy to see the court, the passing is flawless, and the game has plenty of modes. I really liked how you could pick from retro, regular, and secondary jerseys for your team to wear. The developers really took time to make each player realistic and have their own unique abilities. The commentators are repetitive and annoying, but they are pretty acurate. The controls are pretty simple and are easy to pick up. The biggest dissapointment: NO SLAM DUNK CONTEST!!!!!!!! If they added that, I would have given this game 5 stars! If you have the chance, spend the extra money and buy it for the 360 or PS3. The graphics are much better than the PS2, and there's a slam dunk contest. NBA 2K8 is the best b-ball game for 2008 right now, so any basketball fan should buy it-especially for the good price.

Bought this game for my son and he is enjoying it. From time to time we play together, but he is starting to learn the game and pick up on some of the teams (Yes!!!). Graphics aren't the greatest and stealing the ball is somewhat easy. Other than that, it is a fun game.

This game is probably one of the greatest games i have ever played
sure they miss a lot of layups but that can always be fixed by the game sliders

i still dont like the fact that they didnt change the players to their new faces like steve nash with his new hair cut and stuff like that but its pretty good
new signature shots and I LOVE TEH DUNKS THEY ARE AMAZING

this is way better than 2k7 and i definately recommend it especially at this cheap price

I purchased this for my husband for Christmas and he was totally floored. The graphics are amazing and the live action is great. He loves sports video games and this one ranks as one of his favorites. A must have for any video game enthusiast!
