There are better examples out there in other sports titles, but 2K11 is still solid and detailed. Certain players' photographs are also present on the stats screens, which only serves to highlight some of the more dodgy likenesses, which is a shame, because by and large, 2K11 is visually excellent as far as sports games are concerned. Some of the likenesses are still quite dubious however, and while 2K managed to get Michael Jordan's likeness down to a tee, some of the other classic players like Stockton for example, look very little like their real-life counterparts. On the court, NBA 2K11 is much the same as 2K10, albeit with some of the animations refined and likenesses improved.
Conversely, a consistently poor performance will see you getting busted down to the NBA D-Leagues, where you'll have to fight for a chance to get back up to the top level. Wining enough games and garnering enough notoriety and praise will win you endorsements as well as making teams eager to trade to get you on their roster. There's hours of gameplay in My Player and you'll be put through every aspect of an NBA career, from completing the Summer Circuit, to life in the NBA being a bench warmer or a superstar attracting trade offers, delivering press conferences and more, as you're still constantly graded throughout. "The man, the legend himself is the face of NBA 2K11." Despite consistently churning out rubbish D grades, we still managed to get drafted by the Indiana Pacers as a second round pick, which is hardly realistic, but we’re not complaining. You start with a C grade and it's your job to impress and build your grade up to an A or an A+. Your teammate performance is constantly graded in relation to your actions performed on the court, penalising bad passes, bad shot choices and bad defensive play while rewarding shots, rebounds, assists, steals and positive team play.

My Player is the crux of NBA 2K11, offering a full basketball career for a created player from the training arena where you need to prove yourself to the NBA scouts over the course of three games. After a minute tweaking the sliders however and tailoring the game to our limited capacities, NBA 2K11 is a lot more fun. It's easy to get frustrated and start throwing up silly air balls and bricks to try and make up lost ground. The game punishes lapses in concentration severely, and even if you're leading the game by a fair margin, you can soon come unstuck if you happen to run into a stream of bad luck. Despite playing basketball for years at school, we still find NBA 2K11 a difficult game on the default settings. These challenges are good for dipping in and out of, and they're remarkably tough, unless you cheat like we do and adjust the game sliders in your favour. There's an entire mode devoted to the cover star and man himself though in the Jordan Challenge Mode, which presents you with a list of ten specific tasks to complete from pivotal moments in Air Jordan's career. For starters, there's a whole bunch of players and teams from the early-'90s, boasting some of basketball's most unforgettable all-stars, like Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Scottie Pippen, Karl Malone and John Stockton. Well, not really, but it's certainly packed to the rafters with more modes and features than any basketball title to date. In a way, NBA 2K11 is like two games in one.
