NLSC Podcast #593: WNBA Coming to NBA 2K26 MyTEAM
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
As the NBA 2K26 preview season rolls on, the big news revealed last week was that the WNBA has now been integrated into MyTEAM, which includes the ability to team WNBA players up with current NBA players and Legends. The announcement certainly drew some mixed reactions from the wider basketball gaming community, so this week we're providing our take on the situation - from the discourse to our opinions on the news itself - and also reading out some thoughts from our listeners. We also react to some of the other key points that were outlined in the NBA 2K26 MyTEAM Courtside Report, from Game Changer Cards to the promise of greater rewards throughout the mode.

NLSC Podcast #594: Early NBA 2K26 Gameplay, Influencers & Iconic Nicknames
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
With NBA 2K26 right around the corner, a community event has given us all a detailed look at this year's game in action. Although we're reserving final judgement until we get our hands on the sticks, we have a few thoughts about what we've seen so far. We also discuss what some of the influencers who attended the event are saying about the game, in particular how they're shouting down valid criticisms in rather disrespectful ways. We also react to the Courtside Report on MyNBA and MyGM, and join the community in picking some of our all-time favourite basketball nicknames. Some of our choices probably won't be surprising, but we also shout out some creative monikers that don't get enough credit.

NLSC Podcast #595: NBA 2K26 First Impressions
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
NBA 2K26 is already in gamers' hands thanks to the early access pre-order bonus that was provided by the Superstar and Leave No Doubt editions. To that point, this week we join the community in sharing our first impressions of this year's release! From gameplay to the Eras rosters, this episode is a comprehensive breakdown of the pros and cons that we've observed so far, including some issues that too many content creators are excusing or simply ignoring. We also make a few recommendations for getting the most out of NBA 2K26, discuss some disappointing news regarding cross-platform roster sharing, and touch on the concept of aura farming. That's right: we're still cool and with it!

NLSC Podcast #596: EA Drops Out, 2K Going Back to School
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
In a shocking and rather unfortunate development, EA Sports has rescinded their proposal for a college basketball game in light of Take-Two reaching agreements with several schools to develop their own "college basketball experience". This week, we join the community in reacting to the news and speculating on what we can expect from 2K as far as DLC and possibly a standalone game within a couple of years. Interestingly, not everyone is in favour of 2K beating EA to the punch here, but there certainly is interest in what they've hinted at. We also follow up on last week's show with some further impressions of NBA 2K26, now that we've both had a chance to spend ample time with this year's game.

NLSC Podcast #597: NBA 2K26 Tips & How We Play
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
Need help mastering NBA 2K26? We've got you covered as this week's show provides some detailed tips, from what to do on the sticks to suggestions for gameplay sliders and camera settings! We also join the community in discussing how we're playing NBA 2K26, along with the other basketball games that are currently in our rotations. Speaking of which, our NBA 2K9 Bulls Association continues to be a blast, as we played a couple more games over the weekend. In addition to quickly recapping those satisfying victories, we once again reflect on what a strong release NBA 2K9 was, and briefly ponder where it ranks in both the NBA 2K series and among our all-time favourite basketball games in general.

NLSC Podcast #598: Why We Still Play Basketball Games
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
Why do we still play basketball video games after all these years? This week, we discuss the factors that keep us hooked on the virtual hardwood, from a love of competition and shared experiences with friends and family to the way that it allows us to feel connected to and indeed more informed about our favourite sport. In fact, through a combination of modding, new releases, and a library of old favourites to revisit, we're arguably enjoying basketball gaming as much as ever with the options that we have at our disposal nowadays! We also reflect on the lingering stigma surrounding gaming as an adult, and push back on the notion that it's a childish hobby that needs to be left behind.

NLSC Podcast #599: The Best & Worst Music in Basketball Video Games
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
Music is a vital part of the atmosphere in basketball video games, and as such, it's often connected to our nostalgia for them. This week, we join the community in reflecting on basketball video game music, from some of our all-time favourite soundtracks in NBA Live and NBA 2K to the tunes that just didn't seem to be a good fit for the virtual hardwood. After all, while we may like certain songs in other contexts, they're not always ideal for getting us pumped up to virtually ball! We also discuss the joy of discovering new music through gaming, and the appeal of remixed songs with new lyrics that reference basketball, or tracks that were produced specifically for a game.

To mark the milestone, this week we're simply getting on the mics to chat about basketball gaming. We share our latest thoughts on NBA 2K26, and reflect on some of the other games that we're currently playing, including our NBA 2K9 Association. We also once again touch on the joy of Virtual Hardwood Legends, discuss how realism can sometimes feel unrealistic in basketball video games, and share some interesting roster trivia about real players and their virtual counterparts alike.

NLSC Podcast #601: Electronic Arts Acquired in Massive Deal
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
A couple of weeks ago, it was announced that Electronic Arts will be going private after being acquired in one of the biggest deals in the history of video games. This week, we share our thoughts on the news, and what it might mean for the future of basketball gaming (if anything). We also note some of the reactions that we've seen from the wider gaming community on social media. Needless to say, it's proving to be quite a controversial move! To that end, we also touch once again on the effectiveness of video game boycotts, and how much the average gamer realistically cares about who owns the companies that are developing their favourite titles and series.

NLSC Podcast #602: That's No Way To Treat A Customer
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
Customer service, value for money, and quality products are topics that are on our minds this week. This comes in the wake of an eBay purchase that unfortunately became a deeply unpleasant transaction. After sharing that horror story, we do have some far more positive news about a successful upgrade to Windows 11, with old favourites still being playable on the new OS. We also discuss the big patch for NBA 2K26 failing to make the game better (and indeed, arguably making it worse). As we point out, some of the changes also have financial ramifications for MyCAREER and MyTEAM gamers. The show wraps up with some quick 2026 NBA predictions, though we're admittedly still more excited to watch classic games.

Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
A week into the 2026 NBA season, the league has been rocked by a gambling scandal. Not only that, but many fans - us included - have been irritated by the amount of flopping and free throws on display. This week, we join the community in discussing the gambling scandal and the way it throws the league's credibility into doubt, issues with officiating and the style of play, and a few other NBA matters that are getting us down. We also talk about whether playing basketball video games makes up for feeling disappointed with real hoops, before wrapping up with some stories about the times we've been ejected on the virtual hardwood.

Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
Big news last week as Play by Play Studios announced that they have acquired the NBA license. As such, their planned 3v3 online PvP arcade basketball video game The Run: Got Next is now titled NBA The Run, and is slated for release some time in 2026. To that end, this week we're joining the community in reacting to what we know so far about NBA The Run - including breaking down an illuminating and in-depth developer interview with Ballislife.com - as well as the latest teaser trailer. Although the game is aiming to be a worthy successor to the NBA Street series and we'd like to see it turn out well, we'd be lying if we said we didn't have some concerns at this point in time.

NLSC Podcast #605: How Much Should Video Games Cost?
Hosts: Andrew & Dee4Three
The price of video games - basketball and otherwise - remains a hot topic in 2025. Many people opine that they're too expensive, but plenty of others actually defend the current costs, and indeed suggest that video games should be even more expensive than they already are. This week, we're sharing our thoughts on the issue, including our reactions to an excellent 2023 article from The Gamer and some interesting comments from Fallout co-creator Tim Cain. We also join the community in suggesting what we believe would be fair prices for Triple-A games, indie games, online-only titles, and mobile releases. And yes, we do understand that video game development is a business, and no, we're not saying that games should all be dirt cheap or free!
