NBA 2K14 was an almost flawless sports simulation on current-generation consoles. A near-perfect slice of b-ball excellence. Building on the success of previous versions and taking the 2K Sports game to the very top step of the video game sporting podium.But when something so remarkable makes the leap to a new generation, things can often be left wanting or lacking. Simply ported across with little regard for gamers and a lot of regard for the bottom line. Yet, is often the case with 2K in all their games, NBA 2K14 on next-gen as impressive as always, and sometimes even more so.

When you play a sports game you know it's going to be light on story, and that's certainly the case here. Of course story isn't important in a sports game, it's all about the game modes. The good news is that all the modes you've come to love – MyPlayer, MyCareer, MyTeam and Association – all return for another season .MyCareer has a few wobbles along the way though. The loading screens can get a little dull when you’re seeing them for the hundredth time, and the storylines can be VERY cheesy if you look closely at them. But the biggest drawback is the lack of vocal talent drafted in to the locker room sections of the game. It’s hard to be truly immersed when you character is the only one actually talking.

As we discovered, some of the more basic elements have been thoroughly refined. Sprinting will have you run out of stamina much quicker than the previous 2013 or 2012 versions making the game feel more realistic (and harder). Defence play has also been vastly improved upon. This time round reaching in for the ball has a far greater chance of success so you won’t be wincing each time waiting for the dreaded FOUL to push your C grade to the depths of D (yes, the grading system is much the same as last year’s, though far less forgiving).

A few commentary mistakes have crept in this year - little things like saying that a buzzer-beater was for three-points when it was two, or complimenting Miami's first-half shooting percentage during the 4th quarter. Again this is a very small issue and the commentary in the game is as good as any I've heard in a sports game, including FIFA and Madden.

NBA 2K14 is as solid as current gen basketball gaming gets. While not a revolutionary advancement over last year, smart gameplay tweaks and the return of a couple favorite game modes make it once again a must buy for hardcore NBA fans. MyCareer mode is still the leader in sports career modes for any sport, although sky-high expectations mean we always want more. We’ll probably expect more innovation next year, but no doubt NBA 2K14 delivers a season full of NBA action for any fan.So all of the great things combined, I would give this game a impressive score 8.5 out of 10. So what do you guys think, why don't you share thoughts in the comment section down below
