DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!

If you actually want to invest in a basketball game on PC, emulate an old 2K.
2K hasn't properly ported the next-gen 2K (the PS5/Xbox Series X) onto Steam and it's been going to be 4 years since the era started. They also do this for their WWE series as well as they are about to release 2K24 with no intention of making it the proper generation with the new upgrades. There is absolutely zero reason why the old version is being charged for this amount other than pure laziness. It will not surprise me that 2K pulls the plug on selling 2K games on Steam in the future. This is also the first game I will refund in ages from my memory, in fact it could be the first game I have ever refunded if my memory is that horrible.
Genuinely do not buy this game, even when it's on sale. Don't even buy it for a dollar. They don't update the mechanics, photos, graphics, etc. People always meme about how 2K makes the same game every year, but with these ports I legitimately don't see a difference from 2K21 to 2K24 other than the jumpshot meter in terms of gameplay. It is also extremely bland in quality. For example, back in older versions the after basket camera cuts/transitions used to be very cool and bright, but now in this its just a boring black and white auto-generated player image from the game with no color to it. It's unironically just an updated roster every year port in the laziest way possible, and I feel anyway sorry who is willing to pay $60 for this worthless abomination and sorry excuse of a game.
Either pay for a console and pay for the next-gen (which even then I don't think is worth $60 considering how boring the basketball video game genre is now) or emulate a 2K game on a emulator. There's a reason why the reviews are mostly negative and believe me they are accurate. In fact, I take that back. I find it astonishing that people are giving this game a thumbs up. I have no clue how they can even think such a god awful product deserves a rating like that. The 22% has to be trolls, sports video game addict losers, or 2K themselves. There is nothing positive about this product and anyone who thinks there is a singular positive thing that this game provides to society needs to be deported from not only their country but from this planet and sent to Mars. An embarrassment to the Steam Store page and it's the first game where I ever had zero expectations and it still disappointed me.
Fuck 2K.
