The game is the truth, and I had my minor problems with it at first in the beginning but since then, the game has been nothing other than the perfect simulation of real life counterpart to the real game of Basketball. One of the best modes this game has is the "My Player" mode. It's so addictive and gives you a lot to do and aim for. I have yet to play the normal game as much simply because I am enjoying living the life of a NBA rookie trying to make a name for myself and become an All~Star. The game is worth checking out, even if you're not a basketball fan. Give it a shot, you will not be disappointed. Also, they have 24/7 Roster updates which is a great addition as well.
I have to order this from the USA, because I live in Italy. Everything is fine and the cabinet idea is awesome.
Arrived in good time. I haven't been getting much attention from my husband. So I guess the game is great.
Excellent game! Different gameplay modes including the "My Player" mode that is funny and complex, it is very realistic and you can customize the difficulty of the game with sliders and adjust it to your liking.
The locker is very useful and well made, all my friends have seen it and fallen in love with it.

First off, About the NBA 2K10 Anniversary edition: The only thing that is somewhat okay is the locker, but pretty much everything else is a joke.
Now I love the NBA 2K series, don't get me wrong, I've been on board since the Dreamcast and liked how they used to make you squeeze both triggers to make a free throw, genius! But over the last several years, they seem to be losing their touch. Freezing IS an ISSUE in this game. And although it doesn't happen all the time, it still happens. The reason why this irks me so much, is because this has been an issue in the last 4-5 games in their series. Its to the point where you don't feel safe calling a time out in these games anymore, because if you do, that could be all she wrote. The game is likely to freeze up on you, causing you to shut off your Xbox manually, just to get a response. Even after loading the game onto my hard drive, this still happens.
Does anyone know if the Ps3 version suffers from this particular kind of freeze up? This is usually the order in which it happens: 1) the game is almost over 2) yourself or the computer opponent calls a time out 3) all of the players jog off the floor 4) sometimes all of the players from both teams stand absolutely still on the sidelines (swaying from left to right) and thats it, FROZEN! or 5) sometimes the players go back out onto the court and get into coverage, ready to defend the inbound pass from the sidelines...problem is that this pass never comes because the player inbounding the ball NEVER passes it, and BAM, just like that, FROZEN!!! You can try to call a time out if you ever find yourself in this situation, and on some rare occasions, that wasted time out seems to work and gets the ball rolling once again. But those occasions are RARE.
I have to say its safe to assume that 2K knows about this bug by now, right? Why push out the same old engine with minor improvements every year? They seem to be immolating the Madden Franchise, and that's just uncalled for. Maybe, by the time NBA 2K20 comes out, they'll have at least fixed the freezing issue ehh?
Although I still LOVE the NBA 2k series, this year I bought both 2K10 & NBA LIVE 10 after i got a chance to play the demo for NBA LIVE 10 off of Xbox LIVE. And I have to admit that EA's 'recruitment' of a former 2K sports employee really paid off.
Next year might just be NBA LIVES year to shine.
This review is not about the game, it is about the Tenth Anniversary box set.
Pro's:
- The Box is massive, stands about 2ft tall.
- Packaging is top notch, outer packaging alone makes for a great display piece
- Locker itself is really cool, each locker is individually numbered out of 30,000
- Locker construction is solid, and made really well
- Access to the 2k10 Live Gold Room (haven't accessed it yet so I don't know how cool it is)
- Cool poster from Shepard Fairey's Studio No.1 (made on a high quality stock paper)
Cons:
- The Box is massive so it might be tough for you to display.
- I was disappointed with the Mcfarlane figure, I thought it would be a full size figure (should have read more, "it stands at 6" tall, not the figure is 6" tall)
Overall I was really happy with this purchase. Now that I look back I am not sure if I can justify paying $40 extra for this set. If they would have given you a normal size Mcfarlane figure this would have been well worth it.
The box (which is the size of a hobbits wardrobe) is just the first suprising thing about the 2K10 special anniversary edition. The thought that has gone into assembling a package worthy of celebrating 10 yrs of this game franchise is superb. The well made metal locker, along with the ltd edition print of kobe and all the other bits and pieces make for some real eye candy. The addition of the 'gold room' entry pass is a wonderful idea that gives the feeling of exclusivity you want when you buy somthing that is in limited supply. The game itself is as you would expect,packed with smooth graphics, kick ass soundtrack, and realistic gameplay, with really atmospheric arenas and crowd reaction during the matches themselves. The rendering on the player in game graphics is enough to make you weep tears of joy as you control Lebron, koby, and all the other NBA superstars and legends. a highly recommended package well worth the extra bucks. And Amazon.com were one of the only people prepared to supply it to us mere mortals in the UK. Well done ESPN and many thanks Amazon.
