This review is from: NBA 2K12 [Download] (Software Download) The game is fantastic and visuals are great. Not sure why, but I can turn the graphics settings higher for this game 2012 than 2011 on the same computer. Character models are better. There are some differences so play it a while to get used to it before rating it. It is unfair to want this to be 2011 but better; it is not. In some ways it is different and much better like the my legend and my player modes. I like the drills and play next key game. Training camp is great. So overall, single player is fantastic. Tried online once and it did not work so I believe in the complaints about online issues. Would be 5-star if online is fixed. Much cheaper than console versions and so, it is a much better value. Buy it if you are on the fence. Otherwise, don't. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:  The Best Sports Game Of All-Time!, By = Fun: This review is from: NBA 2K12 (Covers May Vary) (DVD-ROM) I feel I must start this review by saying that I have not been an avid sports gamer for quite some time. The last time I was crazy about any sports franchise was the NFL 2k series that sadly saw its demise in 2005. Sports games for the most part just don't have "extended" play features that capture me as I am mostly a single player gamer. That being said I am not even a fan of the NBA of today. The poor player attitudes, the horrible officiating and $ $ $ built dynasties really turn me off. All that being said 2k has done an incredible job of capturing a sport that I loved so much at one time in its absolute purest form. To say that 2k12 is just another sports game is a huge understatement. Having nice visuals and presentation is one thing, making you feel like you are an integral part of a team is a whole other ballgame. The mode I am speaking of is the vastly improved My Player mode that now cuts the D-League bologne and sends your player straight to the NBA. I have in the short time since buying the game spent countless hours in this mode building a Center that shoots like Kareem and has now in my second season given the Knicks their first championship in quite some time. Now I am not a Knicks fan but thats the funny thing about the mode. You are drafted based off of performance in an up and coming game. Your performance is rated and then teams come calling. Three options come up and you interview with them in a very Mass Effect like style. You have 4 options in response that will continue throughout the games many press conferences, thus giving your player a personality. It's truly the most remarkable thing a sports game has done in years. You actually feel like you are a part of the NBA. Leveling your player comes from performance and running drills. The drills aspect at first seemed like a time waster and some drills are just impossible depending on how you set up your players stats. After I spent time with the drills though I realized it was teaching me and I was improving my game. I could go on forever about My Player but that just shows you how amazing this game really is. Dynasty mode is much unchanged from previous versions save for the fact that they have added online support for up to 30 users to participate in online franchises. the next big key winner in this game is its greatest mode. Taking good times you had with Michael in 2k11, this time you have 15 of the NBA's all-time greatest and their greatest moments. Gone is the stat tracking, score 55 with MJ blah blah blah. What they do is simple, give you the time specific presentation and a great espn classic style commentary that talks about the players and teams of old. It's just plain fun. If you want Danny Ainge to be the show stealer in the 85 classic celtics game, go ahead. I wouldn't but just saying you can :). In summation NBA2k12 is everything great about the NBA in a time when things aren't so good. Excellent controls, amazing modes, and incredible gameplay. Oh and did I mention Kurtis Blow does the theme song? It is truly the sports game equivalent of his airness, MJ would definatly approve! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:  looks nice, SP alright but online is worthless, Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: NBA 2K12 [Download] (Software Download) i got this because it was only and a friend had also gotten it and i looked forward to playing him online but unfortunately the online is worthless. After reading around online, i realize that this is very typical of the 2k games. no patches for the PC and from what i've seen PC users are lucky if they ever see one, and that doesn't mean it will make the online work. I've tried joining a quick match a few times and waited several minutes to see absolutely no result. so unless you are buying this for the sole purpose of playing the SP. i would not buy this untill you see something online confirming that the online play is working. |
