The NBA 2K franchise has been the choice for basketball gamers for the better part of the last decade. The love and care the NBA 2K developers put in to making that game look and feel as close to real NBA basketball as humanly possible has earned them a ton of respect in basketball circles. But despite how good 2K sports makes NBA 2K every year, developing on the cutting edge of video game simulation has its inevitable drawbacks. Fortunately for the internet, when something does go wrong in NBA 2K, we’re all winners.
I am, of course, talking about of all those amazing glitches we see pop up year after year around NBA 2K’s release date. They’ve become nearly as big a part of NBA 2K‘s popularity as the quality of the game, so think of this as more of an appreciation for 2K ‘going for it’ and less of a knock on their engineers. What they do is incredible, but sometimes things break, and the results couldn’t be more hilarious.
