10 Best Sports Video Games Of 2016
1. NBA 2K17
NBA 2K17 has been killing it in the sports games department year after year. 2K Sports stays competitive with other titles by releasing a superior product, although the engine seems to have reached its peak and may be in need of a shake-up.
The presentation gets better with each edition. Last year the creators introduced a pre-, mid- and after-game studio, this year there is also an on-court reporter talking about the game. The commentary has been improved and is even better than before.
The graphics make the competition seem real, and so do the game mechanics. The AI has been improved and now fastbreaks are easier to perform, just as opponents are harder to defend. The controls are easy to master on easier levels, but you need to step up your game when making the jump from Pro to All-Star.
As the game is also the best sports simulation around, your players tend to have off-nights and miss open shots, which can be frustrating, but is actually true to the game.
