Slam Dunk - NBA2k14

This is the season for blockbuster sports games franchies to launch their 2014 offerings, and NBA2K14 takes the tried and tested NBA gameplay and tweaks it that wee little bit.

On the court, NBA2K14 plays beautifully with a much-improved defence from previous years although it has to be noted that changes of controller controls for the game throws even NBA game veterans off.

The com
entry is stellar, adding to the felling of 'being there' in the game.

The game also delivers a new mode called LeBron James, Path to Greatness which traces the career of NBA player LeBron James and lets you play out his game, much like going through his biography one game at a time.

Great if you are a big fan, eminently passable if you are not.

In all , you get a game which brilliantly represents basketball as a sport, but if you've played previous versions of the game, you'll quickly get a 'samey' feeling with NBA2k14.
