Video Game Reviews of NBA 2K8
Customer Review: good game be the referee calling sucks!
Summary: 3 Stars
The graphics are great and the game is fun overall. However, it is a little annoying that the referees call things against you and do not on the other team. For example, when you are throwing in the ball, if you don't get it in in like 4 seconds it is a turnover. OK, fine, as long as it is called the same for the other team but it isn't. They have an unlimited time limit to get the ball in, I have counted almost 10 SLOW seconds before they have thrown in the ball and no whistle.
Also, defense is horrible! Unless you change the fouls to low in the game play, almost every contested shot is a foul. It is also very difficult to block their shot, but they can block your shot all day.
It is fun to play for a while but it gets frustrating after a bit. I suggest shopping around before making a decision.
