Pros

  • Offers a wide array of ways to play
  • Core mechanics of the game are fun and easy to play
  • Excellent commentary
  • Strong graphics

Cons

  • For all their efforts to compensate, controls are still what you would expect them to be on a mobile game, and simply cannot compare to a full console
  • AI sometimes doesn't work as perfectly as it should
  • Newer versions are available that contain more improvements and are up to date

NBA 2K17 is the Android version of the very popular basketball franchise. It offers a wide variety of ways to play and a full game experience, despite the fact that it is "only" a mobile game.

There are many elements of NBA 2K17 that are highly enjoyable for players. This includes a career mode, myLeague, myTeam, and more. All of these methods give you various managerial tools to fully explore and play with. All of these experiences can be very wide-ranging and creative. You have the ability to put together your own team and engage in a whole host of management options.

However, the core element of NBA 2K17 is still the gameplay, and in this aspect, NBA 2K17 excels. Reviews have noted that the game contains significant improvements over the main mechanisms of play. Shooting, dribbling, and passing are all much easier and feel smoother to execute.

There are other attractive aspects of the game, as it comes with excellent and realistic commentary and very well done graphics. Indeed, considering that this is a mobile game and now more than a few years old, the graphics hold up relatively well. On the negative side, there are occasional glitches with the AI that hurt the immersion and difficulty level of the game.
