Best Basketball sim, hands down

I am a huge fan and I've been playing NBA games since forever. 2K26 is almost perfect. For the first time in the history of basketball sims speed matters. A faster player will pass by or make it difficult for a slower guy to guard him. Amazing game guys. The graphics are perfect.

I'm glad you liked and enjoyed it, but there is no perfect game. However, the real test is when they start patching things. Usually, something changes the game dynamics after a patch. We'll see ..

I think its right up there in terms of one of my favourite 2k on ps4, the gameplay although missing a lot of features that the ps5 version has it definitely holds up although patches can be a blessing and curse to a game like 2k.

For the ps4 version I dont want the gameplay touched at all really but I won't lie about the fact that 2k didnt update the Utah Jazz rebranding was a disappointment.
The Magic and Clippers got there new courts and jerseys updated in recent years but not the Jazz

I just bought it. From the images I've seen of the game, what you say seems to be true. Now I'll try it out. I haven't bought an NBA game since 2K20 because I felt they were all worse and didn't show much progress. This PC version also looks good graphically. I think this year we have a good foundation for those of us who enjoy offline play and adding mods. We'll see.
