NBA 2K25 - 15 Things You Need To Know Before You Buy

[@PoppaBear777]

Does anyone remember when you started as a 75 in mycareer instead of a 60? NBA2K is too much about monetization and ridiculous grinds for me to buy this game anymore.

[@schwarzer9]

Indeed

[@janisozolins9763]

Agree, plus I want to play my career is getting shit every year, I don't want to walk for 10min just to buy a sleeve for my player.... I can go on and on, waiting for NBA live

[@1109336]

Well said 🎯

[@chrisakokoh9118]

You can buy the tournament edition for $40 till the 10th only reason why I’m getting it

[@EazyE11]

I'm from the 90s. This year was the first year since 2008 I brought Madden. And I would never pay for in-game currency. That's just wild to me.

[@BriskettSkywalker]

Yet here you are watching a video about a game you claim to have zero interest in. Life must really suck for you.😂😂😂😂

[@codydale9123]

Take a few years off. I buy one every few years instead of every year.... you notice more changes that way..

[@seanoreilly1832]

I agree

They just took out more retired players too btw

[@emanuelelston8652]

Barkley never wanted to be in the video game but Jordan changed his mind years back. That's why 2K got him

[@emanuelelston8652]

Cuz after EA messed up he didn't want to be on the game no more

@@jessefritsch4323 It kinda is when they reselling you basically the same game every year. But aye if you like it then do you.

[@TheOnlyTaps]

Annual sports titles just sell the same game to people over and over 😂. Not sure why these games don't do like 3 year cycles that allow them to actually innovate but they want that yearly bag.

[@Mixedbeats18]

Not a hardcore football (?) fan but did you played nacon blood bowl? it went insane with the sport

[@marcusstewart4141]

Short answer: they'd miss out on too much money......

[@TheOnlyTaps]

@@marcusstewart4141 Yep unfortunately. That yearly release schedule rakes in so much bag for them. But it's basically led to so many of those franchises stagnating since like 2012 but somehow people just keep buying and buying with just the same mechanics being rinsed in and out each year lmao with just "graphics enhancements"

This is not a VC glitch, but I just realized you can get VC this way. If you play your association mode and do two to three seasons, your VC will stack up and you'll be able to use that in your my team or my player. Just saying

Hello ITS possible to Play Eras offline or you can Play Eras only online?

[@MrBlue-xk8vy]

It should be a yearly patches not a new title every year and the microtransactions is horrible. 😢

[@Prophecy23]

Is there any single player mode this year?? The same way we had for Jordan and Kobe? Is it Vince Carter this year??

[@KingB-rr3lw]

I just bought 2k25 and noticed NO CARMELO ANTHONY! and for some reason there's no sound like commentator all you hear is your sneakers squeaking back and forth, I played a full game like this and it sukd it fells boring 😢

[@scarvello]

2k needs to stop with the copy and paste or actually evolve each title they drop.

[@azumuh]

managing to mispronounce almost every single player name is certainly an accomplishment

Will it have new classic teams like the Barkley Suns & Miller Pacers?

[@Cblan1224]

Why would they hold back the pc version for so long, only to make the minimum spec a cpu from about 9 years ago. Makes no sense. PC should have options for better features, as we are about to get our hands on zen 5 cpus and rtx 5090s. A game like this should definitely have ray traced gi, reflections and ao in traditional nba games. The lighting in this game looks like its from ps3

[@joncruz]

Anyone know if WNBA mycareer 2k25 works on pc version? If so, it’s for the 3 version of the game ?

no my career offline mode? i pass thnk you

Beautiful review GB but it's a 4.5 at most and you forgot to add don't get 2k25

[@MariusPaske]

the only real 2k basketball simulator game is 2k16. Everything else is cartoons and kiddie modes with no physics, no player weights and no real basketball. After all, it's the NBA. No more basketball

I have not buyed the game in 3 years! Microtransanctions was already huge back 3 years ago!

"MyCareer is NBA2K's single player mode" ... is it tho? Cuz the last time I tried it I got immediately thrown into a multiplayer park game just to start my career.

This review is so confusing. For example, the segment on whatever "The City" is makes literally no sense. "A coastal affair akin to Venice beach... it will resemble the 'burbs of New York", what does that even mean?!? Can you not just describe what "The City" is?

[@shanked1734]

Over the years I have gradually stopped playing the NBA 2K series because it's just getting stupidly repetitive of people dribble dribble dribble steal steal steal. I don't believe any game should be charged $150 especially a sport title that they just copy and paste every year. They do not add anything new to make you justify paying that much especially if they're trying to charge you for a battle pass every 6 weeks. What a fucking rip off

[@SpaceSpiffin43]

How much they paid yall

[@Deym0415]

improvements of graphics and gameplay of nba2k is slow why??? obvious answer is, its because they don't have enough time to make the game, they release the game every year😂 unlike other games that take couple of years before release😂😂
