NBA 2K Through the Years Video Montage (Shady00018)

I just don't get how we are in the 3rd generation of Online Gaming and the server system for the largest basketball game being sold doesn't work? How the hell does something like that happen?

You really see the huge jump in graphics when the systems change.. crazy to think about but next gen will actually make current gen look bad.. I can't wait for that

Anyone knows if Shady00018 has some custom roster for ps4? Thanks

You know what makes me really sad.

They took away the game 21. My family use to play that game ALL THE TIME!! I think it was 7 of us would pick our favorite players and go at it.

And the free throw shooting for the PS3 with the actually controller.

My favorite would have to be 2k11 or 2k12. Those were awesome!! I had a copy of the game at all my friends house.

yea me and my roommates at the time, would play 21 all the time..it was awesome!

This video shows how spoiled we are. If we criticized games back then as much as we did now then we woudve hated those games. Can you imagine us talking about issues with sliding, animations, physics, clipping, contact (or lack thereof), shoes, accessories, or NO ROSTER UPDATES AT ALL back then?

some ppl did tho lol

2K10 was the first basketball game from 2K that got me into 2K basketball. I was always a "Live guy". That video shows how far as gamers we have come. I can only imagine what 2K20 is going to look like!

Forget about 2k20, imagine beating kids in 2k70 virtual reality style. When i'm old and rotting they can just put me in a coma and i'll gladly keep on living as a virtual 20 year old in the matrix.

wow I my fav would be 2k and 2k12. Would love to see them re-release the original 2k but in current day graphics and game play. Like a nba 2k remastered ...

I kinda did something like that for 2K2 a while ago - went back and re-created the 2012 ECF Finals rosters. Was actually pretty fun.

You know what I don't miss? The days where, in order to get a player's new jersey number right, you had to play trade pinball with him until it'd randomly select the correct digits. Oh, Karl Malone is going to wear #11 for Los Angeles? Okay, first I'll trade him to Detroit, where Richard Hamilton's already wearing #32, forcing Karl Malone's jersey to change to...16. Okay, now I have to trade him to Sacramento so Peja will force another jersey change. Crap. #19. Now I have to go create someone with jersey #19 real quick and assign him to a team then trade Malone there to force Karl to change to a new number again (and so on...)

Great video.

Sweet video!

Thought: Someone should do a video like this, but include basketball games from the early years of games until now.

Some of you don't know the awesomeness that is 'Tecmo NBA Basketball' on consoles and 'Run and Gun' in the arcade.

The player model graphics in 2K15 have definitely taken a downgrade from the graphics in 2K14. Those are some of the best looking player models of any game I've seen. How did that happen 2K???

I love it can't wait to play this year version

Re: NBA 2K Through the Years Video Montage (Shady00018)

Great vid. Seeing Jordan say "Are you ready?" in 2k11 still gets me hyped.

Sidenote: Am I the only one who things the graphics regressed over the course of the last generation? Pretty big difference graphically between 2k6 and 2k13.

Crazy how I've been playing NBA 2K for a little over half of my life

Great video.

Sad looking at how much work went into the look of the legends in 2k11 compared to 2k15
