2k16

2K Sports makes modifications to the NBA series

With Take-Two’s basketball simulation series set to invade the virtual hardwood two months, we’re still awaiting for official gameplay. While that’s not expected until late August, Microsoft Smartglass has revealed the official controller layout for NBA 2K16. As you would expect, alley-oop passing has been changed once again in the basic layout (for the better), but those familiar with those controllers schemes should notice a few more significant improvements this year. From flash passing to choosing the exact side of the rim you want to dunk on, get a glimpse into what could possibly ruin your 2016 season or better your skills against the competition.
