NBA 2K5 is one of the best basketball games ever made. It is easy to play, and really fun. The bonus stuff on this game will leave you speechless. Overall, this game is a must have for the true basketball enthuisist or your tired of playing NBA Live(i don't blame you if you don't like to play that game). With such a cheap price tag, this game can not be passed up.

The gameplay and graphics are GREAT! The biggest dissapointment I found with this game was the "franchise" mode. It moves at a slow pace, and ask you to make SEVERAL decisions whenever you try to simulate games slowing down the process. I played better, I played worse.

The controls in this game are great.Graphics are great.Sound is great. Everything about this game is great.Including the $20.00 price tag.

This game's graphics are sweet and it has gameplay to go with it! The 24/7 mode is sweet. The Association is amazing. The game is just awesome and with a $20 price tag, you shouldn't pass this up.

ESPN really shocked me this year for just being such a realistic sports title.2K5 has just about everything you were to find in a real game.The graphics are right on,the moves and isomotion look superb,and the whole game just plays well.This game is not just your average basketball game.In create a player you don't just custamize your guy's looks,his stats,or his wardrobe.You can custamize his shoes also.Everything about this game is right on and beats it's couterpart in every way possible.This is the best basketball game this year and the way ESPN's winning streak is going over EA,I think we will see another great installment to this great franchise again next year.
