It’s a very short game, but the dialogue in this game made me wish it was longer. Genuinely funny and enjoyable experience.

NBA 2K21
The hands down worst game series is back with another carbon copy of its predecessor. I could just copy-paste my NBA 2k20 review, but that would be hypocritical.
I remember listing the recurring bugs and the most glaring defects in my early reviews. Perhaps the most annoying, recurring, bug is the automatic playcalling bug: There’s a switch in the options to toggle the playcalling from automatic to manual. The switch doesn’t work, still. An ongoing bug for some five years now. I’ve personally reported this bug for countless of times directly to the 2k “support”, with the same answer: It will be repaired in the next “version” of the “game”. If these are just yearly versions of the game, why do we pay 60 € for it? The number one disgusting “feature” of the game is the so-called personal power field: The basketball players on the court cannot really collide with their bodies, ever. There’s an invisible power field surrounding every player, which prevents collisions. And it prevents the realism of physics happening, unfortunately as well. Some old basketball computer games around 15 years ago displayed this horrendous feature. It was quickly removed. Until 2k games wanted to ruin the only NBA game franchise for PC for several years with that retarded feature. These are just examples, to give you an idea how low the standards are in every step of the production chain. Just to add a few…the pick’n’roll ball defender still tries to go under the screen, all these years after Steph Curry changed the league; You, or any of your teammates, are unable to tip the ball to the hoop off a rebound, only CPU’s team can; The animation gaps between you actually being able to control your player are so long. The list goes on and on. I don’t think one, single, area of this game is well, or even fairly produced. Every facet of the game is a fail.

It would honestly be fair to call 2K an evil company at this point. There are only two options; either the company is staffed solely by incompetent developers who are incapable of creating a functioning game OR, much more likely, they knowingly, annually, decide to tighten the screws of their monopoly around the heads of literally millions of kids who shell out billions of dollars in revenue to this company every year.
We can talk about rampant cheating, abysmal AI, or the horrific optimization that is sure to make even a beginer-level programmer cry himself to sleep. I, however, think it is much more interesting to talk about the scam itself: to purposefully make the game unbearable throughout every facet of its gameplay. The sheer malignance of such behavor is difficult to understand for normal people, but here it is important to understand how financial incentives choke the life out of every argument for game improvements that is not bounded in optimizing the “revenue stream.”

NBA 2K22
I have failed and once again contributed to the annual money bucket scrap pile that is the NBA 2K series. The last 2K I purchased was 2K19, and for years I purchased the brand new 2K. I purchased every new 2K from 2K14 through 2K19 and did have plentiful fun with friends. However, with my friends having moved away from this game like so many others, I find it more infuriating than normal. It is the same game it was in 2K15 as not much has changed…
Here I will lay out a few things which are IDENTICAL to previous 2K titles, or essentially the things that matter…

1. Not next gen, even though pc graphics way better then console
2. Same game as last year, literally, same game
3. Poorest flow of movement in sports game today
4.Fouls are worse this year then any previous year, funny that NBA changed the ruling on fouls but 2k22 must not have gotten the memo
5.They said they improved defense, false, they made offense actually worse
6.Still have done nothing about the cheaters in the game, seriously someone made it to level 40 in a hour that a new season has been released?

Pile Up! Box by Box
Overall feeling
Very enjoyable! Pile Up is the kind of game that makes you laugh at your own mistakes.
Although it is full of subtle humor, it’s really the accidents and unintentional bumping into each other that make the salt of the game.
Difficulty
The puzzles are clever, with a gentle but perceptible ramp on difficulty throughout the game. They are constructed from a limited set of box types that combine into very creative variations. Likewise, the set of available moves for players is minimal, but enables a fascinating stacking mechanism that offer a very large number of move combinations.

Avis en français plus bas
Played with two boxmates, and so far I can tell that we enjoy it very much ! Pile Up is a wonderful Couch Co-Op game filled with heart-warming elements such as cute characters and a lovely score. Make no mistake tho, as some puzzles are challenging and you will have to act like a true explorer if you want to find all the collectibles and secrets in the world of Pile Up ! But do not worry, this game is accessible and the true difficulty is to ̶c̶o̶-̶o̶p̶ cope with that one friend who always try to catch you just to throw you in the water 3 Fortunately you can have your revenge in funny minigames unlocked through your adventure ! So don’t hesitate and go pile some boxes !

Pro Basketball Manager 2022
It gives you a realistic view of being a manager, The best competition I have played so far are Spanish leage, NBA. European League. If you are thinking about choosing a national team just worry about the United State, This team is a machine to kill. I lost twice in a row managing Brazil in both the Americup and the olympics.

really big changes from PBM21 to PBM22 for me this is the best basketball manager game in steam very big database of players and many competitions/leagues and teams
the game is more exciting to play as a club coach but I would like more International Games
like realistic Qualifiers for World Cup and realistic teams in FIBA Americup,EuroBasket,AfroBasket and Asia Cup

Olympic Basketball
This is a really nice basketball game for people who aren’t very good at sports games. I also own NBA 2K Playgrounds, and this game is much easier to play.

Very straight to the point, easy, and fun to play! could use a little work in AI intelligence, it get’s buggy. For example: ball literally went round the rim for a minute or two before falling out . Funny to see but not fun to play in reality. I enjoyed it.

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Gambling 2(K)
The float on the drop sucks and the minigames are a chore really - good try tho.
Also the spin is so damn slow that I just want to leave my computer alone while it clicks for me.
As a note, I enjoyed the previous installments of the franchise; but this one has too many waiting mechanics that I can’t get myself to play it.
Not worth the asking price for a idle clicker

Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 – The Official Video Game™
Tokyo MMXX is a sports game that ties in with the extensive sporting event in the globe, the Olympic Games. Is Tokyo MMXX just such a international event, or is it first and foremost a controller destroyer?
This especially relates to the ‘classic’ events that are inextricably linked to the Olympic Games: running, 4x100 relay, 110m hurdles and long jump. In all these sports, it is mainly a occurence of making as much momentum as attainable and by any chance striking a button in time for the sprint or leap.

I picked up the game and I’m really enjoying it. Here’s some comparisons vs. London 2012:
1. Excellent character customization. You can edit each individual part of your body. Tons of hairstyles and about 60 voices. Lipstick, facial hair and nose length.. It’s all here. You can also customize your whole country’s team. There are even character codes you can share to allow other people to use your creations.
2. The graphics are gorgeous. Highly detailed real Japanese stadiums. The engine seems a bit glitchy though, it crashes windows explorer and locks your mouse cursor. I can’t use Discord on my 2nd monitor because of it.
