If you weren't aware, I moved this series to the second channel. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ac-ne66mqMmremg.html&pbjreload=10

One import point about 2k8, you can take college hoops players over to nba

Best thing about this game was the 360 waves with the perfect hairline! Now 2k wanna give us that Jagged Edge hairline

I still have all of my old 2k games, this series is awesome

Real ones remember how dope the soundtrack was: "E=Mc2" - Common/Dilla "Hurry To Go Easy" - A Guy Called Gerald "Sucka MC's" - Run DMC "Lightworks" - Kweli/Dilla

#ContinueCasesForGOAT

Man I’m liking this series so far please keep it going

first 2k was 11 so its intresting hearing about what made the games before my time special

I love this idea of reviewing these 2k games man nobody else is doing it thank you so much for your hard work I always wanted to see this bro.

Video starts @ 1:30

Where’s GOAT playoff series part 3?

I love this series I was thinking about starting one similar to this, keep em coming.

The fact I've been watching your videos for over a year and haven't subscribed lmao. Officially subscribed now! Keep up the awesome content!

Yoy have the most solid structure and script for your videos. Way better than other nba videos really like them. Subbed+liked

I can’t believe you have 200k subs now. I was watching when you had to make a new channel. Great job man, keep it up

Thanks man! Great work you should keep them coming

Really excited with your thoughts on 2k9! That was the first 2k that my friends and I set out to buy as it was the first 2k pc game

Dom always clutch with the uploads

Love the idea for this series. Can't wait for more videos... but seriously, finish your cases for GOAT series first! My favorite series, yet you take a year per video bro!

This is a great series Dom keep it up

Anyone else remember when 2K games made baseball games? Those were the days!

Great video again as always, Dom. Really liking this series in particular though, and I can't wait for the next installment. Honestly, 2K8 ranks high for me personally, mostly because it was my first 2K title, too. The nostalgia I feel listening to its soundtrack or watching gameplay from it is strong, and brings me back to better days, so while it isn't a perfect game by any means, it sure as hell was a fun one for me. (*Also, I'm nitpicking, but when you say "resemblance," I'm pretty sure the word you're looking for is just "semblance." Lmao.)

This series is very creative and i like how u get in to depth on your points keep up the good work

You should do all the 2k games, because seeing how they evolve would be great, and you could also compare them to live to show us what made them insufficient at the time

I miss the mode where you could select any player from the league and use that as your “mycareer” player

Hell yea best 2k youtuber right now hands down

Hey dom2k love your vids man their awesome

Love this series

I literally just watched the other one yesterday and was wondering when this would be updated.

Hello New to your channel and LOVE your vids. It was NBA 2K9 where you could take Legends and put them on teams for ASSOCIATION. I know because I would spend WAY too long putting the BEST BOSTON CELTICS players ever on one team...WAY before 2K decided to add ALL-TIME ROSTERS 9 years later. Thanks for the GREAT videos and hard work you put in. I’m addicted to your channel.

Me too dom 2k8 my frist 2k. Always putting amazing videos

ready for the next episode

Never played this one so this is a learning curve for me

Today we look at NBA 2K8 a decade later, this time we can compare it to its successor to see what improvements were made...or not made.

2K8 was my first Soo it'll always be gold to me👌

2K11 was the GOAT simply on the basis of the deep MJ content. First modern 2K for sure.

The Create-A-Team feature was in 2K5. I didn't know they removed that.

I can't wait for Part 12.

In 2k2 you could create a team and put anyone (including legends) on your squad. Also, the street mode didnt have 21, but you can play 1v1,2v2,3v3,4v4, and 5v5 and pick where you woud like to play (jordan rec center, ruckers, venice, etc.)

Dom2k, I like to see you do more reviews maybe NBA Live 14 or NBA 09 The Inside

Wow 213k already. Been here since 200 GJ

The first year that it dawned on me that 2K had clearly surpassed Live. Haven’t looked back since

12:45 scared the shit outta me

That seat geek transition tho 😂😂😂

I can't wait for the 2k9-2k13 reviews, these were my prime years lmao 😂😂

When are you going to finish your best series ever between the Bulls and the Celtics?

I’m so glad i played 2k since the first one for Dreamcast i was always a fan always loved Dreamcast hated that it didn’t work out for them but was glad 2k continued on cuz it was always better then live to me

2k8 is one of my favs. My Fav player of all time CP3 On the cover. My first 2k on console (2k10 on psp a month earlier).. love the game. Only good memories. I just want to get all of my favs again for 360.

I remember playing 2k3 with iverson on the front lmfao

Make some more cases for goats

cant wait for 2k9 review

I completely agree with your review on 2k8. I remember playing 2k6 and 2k7 and just thinking to myself, man 2k8 is going to be the best! Then when it came out it was a huge step backwards...it's still one of my least favorite 2k's and funny how 10 years later I feel the same way with 2k18 lol. One redeeming quality is that I had a ton of fun playing with Gilbert Arenas and the Wizards in my Association mode and against friends.

What happen to bulls celtics playoff series

I still remember ?uestlove being 8 feet tall on 2k8.

Damn man this was the only 2k I played until I bought 14 myself, this is all I knew for years haha RIP 2k08. The shooting in this game ALWAYS pissed me off bc it always felt up in the air

Played this game yesterday, forgot how to use the dual player controls but it was pretty effective when the game dropped. Still 2k7 is probably my 2nd favorite 2k to play but 2k8 has the best dunk contest of the series. Also they have Venice, Miami, San Francisco and about 4 other blacktop courts in the game.

Dont forget the most important thing about this game was transferring draft classes from college hoops 2k8

I skipped out on 2K8 for Live 08 back then, looks like I made a good choice.

I started playing 2k with 2k2. it's cool to see these older games but I wish you had experience enough to go back to the ps2 and dreamcast games. in 2k8 (2k7 maybe?.. might've been in 5 and 6 too) but the blacktop used to have a totally different dribble system from the main game that used to let you do And 1 streetball type moves.. I still miss it

I had the ps2 version of this game and really liked it

He can post part 2 of this right away but forgot about greatest playoff series of all time 😂😂 but great vid

I had March madness and college hoops that year

I miss the old 2k games they were so much better back then

2k10,2k11, 2k13 are the best 2ks Period Point blank If you never played those don’t even comment !

7:34 I don't know why that animation is always hilarious to me

5:35 cough cough create a legend.... I want it back

My first nba 2k was 2k1 on the dreamcast

2K8 was actually great in my opinion to access the blacktop levels you had to press Y or Triangle I think. I also loved the Dunk contest in that game. But not having a 24/7 mode hurt this game a lot in my opinion

Can you make a Larry Bird case and I have a suggestion that you have him facing away from you in his warm up jacket shooting a three from the three point contest

Hey Dom 2k can you make a video game? They even worked hard every year for an NBA 2k game

Atheletic cases is my jam

Hey are you going to do Live aswell?

Peak 2k. For every one of their sport games

WE NEED THE GOAT SERIES, WHICH IS YOUR GOAT SERIES

1st and Dom2k better have a heart 😣

This was my first 2k!

WHERE IS MY " Greatest Playoff series of all time part 3" DOM. I NEED IT

2k16 had the best online play, and 2k10 had the best mycareer. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I bought this game to go back and play with old rosters. I didn't realize how broken this game mode was. There's no sense of going over the salary cap to sign your own players who you have bird rights for. You literally have to have free cap space to re-sign your own players, so ever off season, you basically lose your best players that are on expiring contracts. Is there a way around this?

Can’t wait for 2k11

I wish we can have badges like in 2k16 for dribble moves, like behind the back pro, etc. That simple ankle breaker badge is just stupid to me.

Nba 2k8 was my official introduction to 2k, I liked it, but the lead pass going through everyone online, the unstoppable dunk under the basket over everybody, over dribbling with a ball handler to get a guaranteed canned animation layup or dunk, ruined my experience quite a bit, as I had like 5 charges against the guy trying to cheese with LeBron so he had to sit him down, he surly was disappointed over the mic lol.

Where is goat playoff series part 3

2K8 was my first introduction to gambling on games. I was a freshman in college and actually had to learn how to run plays and use my bench. I made over $400 playing 2K that year and had some wild games including being down 10 and scoring 11 points in row in under a minute with Marbury to win at the buzzer with a 3. As a Knicks fan I had a starting lineup and a bench lineup and I remember how hard it was to use my bench in the beginning. I ended up loving doing that though and continued for years. In 2K8 for the Knicks my starting lineup was PG- Marbury (Amazing in the game) SG- Quentin Richardson (Could shoot, but was garbage for everything else and super inconsistent. He frustrated me the most) SF- Wilson Chandler (Very raw, but athletic and could play defense, terrible shot though) PF- Jared Jefferies (The man could play D in the game!) C- Zach Randolph (Amazing offense and had a 3 for some reason, horrible on defense and undersized so that is why Jefferies started) Bench- PG- Jamal Crawford (I called this back than that Crawford was a better bench player than a starter,. He was lightening off the bench. I had a 82 point game with him) SG- Fred Jones (Could dunk and shoot. Inconsistent, but solid) SF- Ronaldo Balkman (Horrible offense, but could dunk, great defense) PF- David Lee (Solid overall except for defense, he would come into his own in 2K9 since he was the only good player on that team) C- Eddy Curry (Amazing offense, terrible defense. How we thought him and Randolph could play together is beyond me. One of them needed to take a back seat as even I could see in the game they were not a good pairing)

omg I remember thinking how good these graphics were back then....

So im the only who mostly played the Dynasty/ Association mode?? And care about the CGR’s, team building, and RPG elements every year? 🤷🏽‍♂️

The middy fadeaway was absolute cheese from 2k8-13

2k12 and 16 probably my favorites

9:44 Oklahoma forward Blake griffin announces he will return for his sophomore season

Pretty sure u were able to add legends in 2k9 that was my first 2k

what happened to thoses videos on the celtics bulls playoffs series

What's crazy was in 2012, I had this rated 4th behind 2k11, 2k1, and 2k10. The best gameplay was 2k3. I am obviously a much older gamer than you. My first 2k was 2k and my first Basketball game was USA Basketball on Sega Genesis.

2k8 is lit

You actually had different courts in blacktop in 2k8, you had miami, venice beach, rucker park, rec center from 2k7, you had new ones like the court that was in 2k14, and you had San Francisco court, you didn't have steel mil, fish market, and another street court from 2k7, but then again 2k7 didn't have Chicago court or Mexico court or San Francisco court from 2k6, the San Francisco court in 2k8 was different though.

The only thing i do on 2k18 is Play Now Online or All-star teamup

Hall of fame Lobby 3 lol 😂😂😂 memories man

12:45 Okay wtf that's creepy

I can't speak for console gamers but for us PC gamers, 2k should just launch a single game called NBA 2K and make it cost $5 a month for as long as you want to play it. That is the same as spending $60 a year and costs less than the average player spends on VC anyway. That way, they would never remove features since a new game wouldn't come out every year. If they listen to the community they could just improve the game with quarterly updates. This is the system iRacing uses and it is amazing.

Is this the best to worst or worst to best???

Bobito garcia!!!!! My dude.
