THE VERDICT
If you skipped current-gen this year, it’s a no-brainer: yes, yes, yes, yes. Next-gen NBA 2K14’s ambitious new modes each leave a bit to be desired, and for better and for worse, it plays almost identically to the game you may already own. But this edition is not only a smooth-flowing piece of pro basketball simulation, it’s also one of the few games that makes a true next-generation leap in visual fidelity. And when you’re dropping $400-$500 on a fresh piece of hardware, there’s something to be said for that.

Nice first review, watched the video review as well. Amazing what 2k continues to do. Just imagine if NFL2k was still around!

Been ages since I bought a Basketball game. This might change that.
 
I really hope there's a bogo so I can score this for free. I have about $90 in MS credit but $40 goes to KI and the rest I want to keep for the "arcade" or DLC.
 
did ign just give next gen fifa a higher score... wtf

The Verdict

FIFA 14 isn’t a leap into the future of the series; it has a lot in common with the version of FIFA 14 that's already out. There are real flashes of potential, though, and hints at where it may go in the future – the sheer variety of animation, cognisant players, more palpable atmosphere – but what FIFA 14 on next-gen consoles does right now is add an impressive visual layer to an already brilliant sports game.

9.1 Amazing (editors choice)
I call bulls***!
