(Throwback) NBA 2K6 - XBOX360 HD Gameplay - Full Game

Decided to hop on the XBOX360 and dust off the classic NBA 2K6. Played a 5 minute quarter game on Hall of Fame with the Lakers vs the LeBron led Cavaliers. The presentation on this game is still pretty damn good for a game made in 2005 but converted to 360 in 2006.

i remember playing this for the first time ever at my cousin’s house when it first came out and we were blown away by the jump in graphics particularly with the sweat and jersey physics. but man have we come a long way since then. i really miss those days though 😢

[@DerekTurner1985]

yea

[@sanda386]

This was the game that made me decide to buy an X360 ASAP. My jaw was on the floor the first time I saw someone playing it in person. Some comments here don't get how much of a visual upgrade this was over the previous gen.

Xbox 360 launch title November 22,2005! Looking back, it’s hard to believe games like Double Dribble on NES were only 17-18 years old in 2005. The leap in graphics 1988-2005 is astounding!

[@matteobdrums]

This game was so much fun, the 24/7 mode was fucking epic!

[@DerekTurner1985]

Hell yea

[@rcyoung86]

I just grabbed a copy of this game the other day on eBay, I paid like $6 for one complete in box. NBA 2K6 is one of my favorite basketball games on the 360.

[@jsizzlethorofare3116]

rcyoung you are a moron, 2k7 and 2k11 are the best, and the ain't even the best bball games, nba live 09 is

[@DerekTurner1985]

they're not that bad for 2006, but 2k7 looks way better than this game

[@wilson10wayne]

Remember playing this every night with my cousin this was my first 2k and I believe this is the best soundtrack 2k has ever had it’s just so memorable and nostalgic

[@jalen3128]

2k graphics have always been better than live graphics

[@DerekTurner1985]

The overall graphics for sure, Live 06 had good graphics as well, just the awkward animations made it look worse for sure.

[@Elia_9400]

Remember Kenny Smith was a commentator from NBA 2K6-NBA 2K8 just right before Clark Kelogg

first year on new consoles this seemed so realistic... it takes awhile for producers to cope with new systems which is why theres such a difference from this and 2k14 .. that being said 2k14 looks amazing on ps4 ad's now and im excited to see what future installments are gonna look like because I think the graphics in the games we've seen thus far are just the tip of the ice berg

All I know is nba 2k9 has the best Iverson player model…they never get his long arms or wire frame right anyomore like they did in 2k9. They also fully motion captured “his” signature crossover. I wish 2k focused more on signature moves like they use to in the pass

I can't quite say which ones are my favorites but I always go back and play 2K7 & 2K10, I only get on 2K11 for the Jordan challenges that mode alone changed the game.

Every damn player has the same jumpshot animation in this game

[@DerekTurner1985]

This was before they gave players signature style when 2k7 dropped for ps3 & 360, I think on ps2 & og xbox they still all had generic shots and dribbles.

[@ValkyrieProduction]

+Derek “Dgame1985” Turner they just imported the Xbox version and improved the graphics lol

[@DerekTurner1985]

+ValkyrieProduction just the court and players lol everything else has the same assets from ps2, oddly I think some of the faces looked better on ps2 as well

[@ValkyrieProduction]

+Derek “Dgame1985” Turner I have this game and was trying to investigate and from what I've discovered that the only player who doesn't have a generic jumpshot is shaq but I might be wrong I didn't test every player, even Shawn Marion has a regular jumpshot it was weird seeing that lol

[@DerekTurner1985]

ValkyrieProduction that could be the case since shaq is on the cover

[@iBry232]

Why do the graphics look like a modern game?

They did a good job at the time of making player models and courts look good. Every first game in a new gen for 2k looks good then they start to slide.
