Really excited with your thoughts on 2k9! That was the first 2k that my friends and I set out to buy as it was the first 2k pc game

I can’t believe you have 200k subs now. I was watching when you had to make a new channel. Great job man, keep it up

This series is very creative and i like how u get in to depth on your points keep up the good work

Love the idea for this series. Can't wait for more videos... but seriously, finish your cases for GOAT series first! My favorite series, yet you take a year per video bro!

2K11 was the GOAT simply on the basis of the deep MJ content. First modern 2K for sure.

Great video again as always, Dom. Really liking this series in particular though, and I can't wait for the next installment. Honestly, 2K8 ranks high for me personally, mostly because it was my first 2K title, too. The nostalgia I feel listening to its soundtrack or watching gameplay from it is strong, and brings me back to better days, so while it isn't a perfect game by any means, it sure as hell was a fun one for me. (*Also, I'm nitpicking, but when you say "resemblance," I'm pretty sure the word you're looking for is just "semblance." Lmao.)

Hello New to your channel and LOVE your vids. It was NBA 2K9 where you could take Legends and put them on teams for ASSOCIATION. I know because I would spend WAY too long putting the BEST BOSTON CELTICS players ever on one team...WAY before 2K decided to add ALL-TIME ROSTERS 9 years later. Thanks for the GREAT videos and hard work you put in. I’m addicted to your channel.

What happen to bulls celtics playoff series

In 2k2 you could create a team and put anyone (including legends) on your squad. Also, the street mode didnt have 21, but you can play 1v1,2v2,3v3,4v4, and 5v5 and pick where you woud like to play (jordan rec center, ruckers, venice, etc.)

Wow 213k already. Been here since 200 GJ

I still remember ?uestlove being 8 feet tall on 2k8.

Dom2k, I like to see you do more reviews maybe NBA Live 14 or NBA 09 The Inside

I can't wait for the 2k9-2k13 reviews, these were my prime years lmao 😂😂

Make some more cases for goats

Dont forget the most important thing about this game was transferring draft classes from college hoops 2k8

Played this game yesterday, forgot how to use the dual player controls but it was pretty effective when the game dropped. Still 2k7 is probably my 2nd favorite 2k to play but 2k8 has the best dunk contest of the series. Also they have Venice, Miami, San Francisco and about 4 other blacktop courts in the game.

cant wait for 2k9 review

I remember playing 2k3 with iverson on the front lmfao

2k10,2k11, 2k13 are the best 2ks Period Point blank If you never played those don’t even comment !

I’m so glad i played 2k since the first one for Dreamcast i was always a fan always loved Dreamcast hated that it didn’t work out for them but was glad 2k continued on cuz it was always better then live to me

He can post part 2 of this right away but forgot about greatest playoff series of all time 😂😂 but great vid

I skipped out on 2K8 for Live 08 back then, looks like I made a good choice.

Damn man this was the only 2k I played until I bought 14 myself, this is all I knew for years haha RIP 2k08. The shooting in this game ALWAYS pissed me off bc it always felt up in the air

2K8 was actually great in my opinion to access the blacktop levels you had to press Y or Triangle I think. I also loved the Dunk contest in that game. But not having a 24/7 mode hurt this game a lot in my opinion

Hey Dom 2k can you make a video game? They even worked hard every year for an NBA 2k game

WHERE IS MY " Greatest Playoff series of all time part 3" DOM. I NEED IT

I had the ps2 version of this game and really liked it

I had March madness and college hoops that year

7:34 I don't know why that animation is always hilarious to me

I completely agree with your review on 2k8. I remember playing 2k6 and 2k7 and just thinking to myself, man 2k8 is going to be the best! Then when it came out it was a huge step backwards...it's still one of my least favorite 2k's and funny how 10 years later I feel the same way with 2k18 lol. One redeeming quality is that I had a ton of fun playing with Gilbert Arenas and the Wizards in my Association mode and against friends.

omg I remember thinking how good these graphics were back then....

WE NEED THE GOAT SERIES, WHICH IS YOUR GOAT SERIES

This was my first 2k!

My first nba 2k was 2k1 on the dreamcast

I started playing 2k with 2k2. it's cool to see these older games but I wish you had experience enough to go back to the ps2 and dreamcast games. in 2k8 (2k7 maybe?.. might've been in 5 and 6 too) but the blacktop used to have a totally different dribble system from the main game that used to let you do And 1 streetball type moves.. I still miss it

Atheletic cases is my jam

Can’t wait for 2k11

Peak 2k. For every one of their sport games

Can you make a Larry Bird case and I have a suggestion that you have him facing away from you in his warm up jacket shooting a three from the three point contest

Hey are you going to do Live aswell?

I bought this game to go back and play with old rosters. I didn't realize how broken this game mode was. There's no sense of going over the salary cap to sign your own players who you have bird rights for. You literally have to have free cap space to re-sign your own players, so ever off season, you basically lose your best players that are on expiring contracts. Is there a way around this?

1st and Dom2k better have a heart 😣

2K8 was my first introduction to gambling on games. I was a freshman in college and actually had to learn how to run plays and use my bench. I made over $400 playing 2K that year and had some wild games including being down 10 and scoring 11 points in row in under a minute with Marbury to win at the buzzer with a 3. As a Knicks fan I had a starting lineup and a bench lineup and I remember how hard it was to use my bench in the beginning. I ended up loving doing that though and continued for years. In 2K8 for the Knicks my starting lineup was PG- Marbury (Amazing in the game) SG- Quentin Richardson (Could shoot, but was garbage for everything else and super inconsistent. He frustrated me the most) SF- Wilson Chandler (Very raw, but athletic and could play defense, terrible shot though) PF- Jared Jefferies (The man could play D in the game!) C- Zach Randolph (Amazing offense and had a 3 for some reason, horrible on defense and undersized so that is why Jefferies started) Bench- PG- Jamal Crawford (I called this back than that Crawford was a better bench player than a starter,. He was lightening off the bench. I had a 82 point game with him) SG- Fred Jones (Could dunk and shoot. Inconsistent, but solid) SF- Ronaldo Balkman (Horrible offense, but could dunk, great defense) PF- David Lee (Solid overall except for defense, he would come into his own in 2K9 since he was the only good player on that team) C- Eddy Curry (Amazing offense, terrible defense. How we thought him and Randolph could play together is beyond me. One of them needed to take a back seat as even I could see in the game they were not a good pairing)

Nba 2k8 was my official introduction to 2k, I liked it, but the lead pass going through everyone online, the unstoppable dunk under the basket over everybody, over dribbling with a ball handler to get a guaranteed canned animation layup or dunk, ruined my experience quite a bit, as I had like 5 charges against the guy trying to cheese with LeBron so he had to sit him down, he surly was disappointed over the mic lol.

I can't speak for console gamers but for us PC gamers, 2k should just launch a single game called NBA 2K and make it cost $5 a month for as long as you want to play it. That is the same as spending $60 a year and costs less than the average player spends on VC anyway. That way, they would never remove features since a new game wouldn't come out every year. If they listen to the community they could just improve the game with quarterly updates. This is the system iRacing uses and it is amazing.

But then you never own the game. Games as a service are a terrible idea. With that type of system you likely cannot play without an internet connection. If it did not require it, then you could cheat to keep the game for $5 forever otherwise via manipulating your computer/the program... so it would require an internet connection. Say they update it horrifically, adding in more egregious microtransactions, broken gameplay, gamebreaking bugs... you then quit your subscription. Now you can never play previous versions because you do not own the game, nor have a physical copy, because you had a game as a service.. you cannot even play the current version. You spent $180 over the course of three years, and now you have no game to show for it. I am a PC gamer, as well, so when you say, " but for us PC gamers" I don't think you realize how diametrically opposed to your idea that many PC gamers, if not the extreme majority, are. Games as a service are the beginning of the slippery slop to further destroy gaming. It may *sound* like a great idea, but in practice, it's not. I'm not sure iRacing is a great game to bring up, because of how their system compares. They function like an MMO with their subscriptions, so if NBA took their pricing model, it would be roughly $10 per month, $8 per month if you bought 3 months at once, and $5 per month only if you buy a full year at once. They also charge you $12 for each new car, and $12-$15 for new tracks. Absolutely ridiculous.

Th3 Kool Aid Man I understand your complaints but the same complaints brought up about iRacing all the time are because people compare them to traditional video games. iRacing is a hobby, even with a grand's worth of money spent on it over the last 3 years or so it may be insanely expensive when compared to a traditional game but insanely cheap compared to my dad's golfing expenses. It is a hobby, I'm willing to spend money on a hobby if the end product is of high quality. Competitors will always exist to provide a different product for cheaper if that is what someone wants. I just want a quality basketball simulation and I'm willing to spend good money on it since it is one of my favorite hobbies. As for 2K games, I quit playing them with 2k16 because they do the same thing every year...release a cruddy game and then after a few months, completely stop updating or patching it and after a few years the game is worthless.

Dennis Bowen regardless of what any of us think in this here thread, they'll never change 2k for the better. There is simply too much money in this wretched virtual currency nonsense. Our best hope is that a competitor comes along and provides actual competition. Competition is what drives growth and development. Only when a majority of their gamers leave to play a superior game will they wake up and smell the coffee

Hearing your criticisms of this game 10 years later they’re the same exact critiques of 2k18
