NBA 2K is such a storied and successful franchise, for years it hasn't had any major competition. Each entry is so good that releasing competing NBA titles is just futile. Yet, since 2017 will finally have a decent rival in NBA Live 18, the creators decided to step up their game and release a surprisingly expanded product.

2K got on the pedestal thanks to incredible attention to detail and devotion to realism. NBA 2K is not so much a video game as it is a very faithful simulation of the real thing, allowing the gamer to feel like they're taking control of an actual NBA franchise. The experience will be even more real now, since every feature of the game has undergone some sort of improvement.

Whether it's gameplay, modes, or presentation, it seems that NBA 2K18 will set new heights not only for basketball games, but sports games in general.

Honestly, the hype for this is so big, it may be justified to expect 2K18 surpassing the mighty NBA 2K11. Never afraid to take risks, 2K will undoubtedly make it a game to remember - hopefully for all the good reasons.

10. All-Time Teams

You can check out this article for a full breakdown of how All-Time Teams could be implemented, as this is not to be confused with Classic Teams; which have been included into the game for some time now.

Classic Teams are those that achieved success during one season, All-Time Teams feature the best players in the history of the franchise.

That way, for example in regards to the Lakers, Wilt Chamberlain, Shaquille O'Neal and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar can all take the court and form the most dominant big-man trio in league history.

Combining legendary players with present-day superstars will not only be fun once the game is released, but the announcement alone generated a lot of buzz, igniting plenty of discussions amongst fans as to who should feature.
