2K10 Review
The game is the truth, and I had my minor problems with it at first in the beginning but since then, the game has been nothing other than the perfect simulation of real life counterpart to the real game of Basketball. One of the best modes this game has is the "My Player" mode. It's so addictive and gives you a lot to do and aim for. I have yet to play the normal game as much simply because I am enjoying living the life of a NBA rookie trying to make a name for myself and become an All~Star. The game is worth checking out, even if you're not a basketball fan. Give it a shot, you will not be disappointed. Also, they have 24/7 Roster updates which is a great addition as well.

Amazing Collector's Item
This review is not about the game, it is about the Tenth Anniversary box set.

Pro's:

- The Box is massive, stands about 2ft tall.
- Packaging is top notch, outer packaging alone makes for a great display piece
- Locker itself is really cool, each locker is individually numbered out of 30,000
- Locker construction is solid, and made really well
- Access to the 2k10 Live Gold Room (haven't accessed it yet so I don't know how cool it is)
- Cool poster from Shepard Fairey's Studio No.1 (made on a high quality stock paper)

Cons:

- The Box is massive so it might be tough for you to display.
- I was disappointed with the Mcfarlane figure, I thought it would be a full size figure (should have read more, "it stands at 6" tall, not the figure is 6" tall)

Overall I was really happy with this purchase. Now that I look back I am not sure if I can justify paying $40 extra for this set. If they would have given you a normal size Mcfarlane figure this would have been well worth it.

Best Basketball videogame
Excellent game! Different gameplay modes including the "My Player" mode that is funny and complex, it is very realistic and you can customize the difficulty of the game with sliders and adjust it to your liking.

The locker is very useful and well made, all my friends have seen it and fallen in love with it.
