Bought 13 last year and didn't enjoy it. Have an itch to play a basketball game but not going to buy 2k14.

Just wondering if either of these are better than 13. by better i mean blocked shots, more defense, less offensive rebounds, and less of the problems that plagued 13.

Personally if I were you I would buy 14. 12 had all kinds of issues, 11 had defense, but there wasnt any FB points and off rebs were non existent. 14 is by far the best game 2k has ever put out. I havent enjoyed a basketball game thi smuch since CH2k8 and NBA2k8. IMO those were the last 2 great games for Association/Dynasty guys like myself.
Its your money but 14 is worth the money especially if your a offline player.

2k11 was the greatest basketball game

14 or 11 (10 char.)

I just wish for once when someone post a thread complaining about how bad a previous 2k was, or how bad this is, actually upload a game to show how they play. This would just expose how meanless these repeated threads are when you can see how these guys play.

2K11 or 14. 14 is pretty much an improved 13 in many ways and with a few slider tweaks plays well. If you like blocking 14 has a fun blocking model.

12 was problematic in a bunch of ways. I consider 13 better in almost every regard.

11 was its own thing and had a instinctively different look. Probably the best lighting and shaders in the series and good all around-- if you don't mind the unrealistic bumping and fouling that constitutes perimeter defense.

If you don't mind playing on the PC, you can pick it up for under $25 when Greenmangaming has a voucher up and running. $30 otherwise. You don't get some of the online features... but eh, if you're already only going to dish out similar or less for 11/12, may as well get 14 for the PC.

Defense is solid and once you get used to the right stick it's not bad either. (Use a 360 controller)

Anyway, 2K11... hated the my career for it. Your player started off extremely weak and beyond pointless. 40's or 50's at best. (or was that 2k10? >_>) 12 was okay, 13 was fun, except defense did not exist.

Also, I only play offline. If you want feedback for online play, I can't offer it.

I gotta say 2k11, just because defense existed and I had more fun out of it just my opinion.

2k14 the blocking is crazy op, and my experience online with 2k14 is that shot feedback is broken.

Lets hope 2k14 for the NG is really a whole different game from the current gen.
