Greatness Arrives

There had been stiff competition between EA Sports and 2K Games over who had the best basketball game for some time. Eventually, 2K started to gain more and more popularity, and EA was left in the dust with their NBA Live series (more on that later). NBA 2K is now the leading basketball game with over ten million sold alone for 2K18 before even launching.

NBA 2K11 was so special because the franchise brought Michael Jordan into the mix. It was the first time in over a decade he had been featured in a professional basketball game. They even included "Michael Jordan Legacy Mode" where you take on the most significant challenges in his career.
