NBA 2K21 Currently on Sale For $39.99 at Amazon

Lol current gen version is terrible because it is copy and paste game with very minor improvements

And still like 38.99 too much

NBA 2K16 is better and cheaper.

If you have 2k19 or 20 then just keep those versions. Even at discount price it's too much. I've been playing my older 2Ks. 2k16, 14, 15, and if I had a 360 I'd be on 2k11 and 2k9. I'm really just waiting on the next gen version for the PS5 on the 12th.

Dang....5 weeks since release and they're panicking already? Honestly, with 2K's obsession with microtransactions they really should be giving this game away for free. Oh and the fact they change things no wants changed and really make no real substantial changes that make it worth a $60 investment.  

Gameplay is vastly different from 2k20 but in a worse way. Many things just got worse. AI defense on your team is nonexistent.

This should have been a 19.99 bridge between current and next gen especially when there billing next gen as a totally different experience. This game is nothing but a patched 2k20 and Im more and more disappointed in the product every year. Charging $60 was an insult and money grab to begin with.

I wished they would have did the free next gen upgrade for the standard version. As many stated, there wasn't enough improvement over 2k20 to fully justify the $60 tag. Or at the very least pay $10 for the upgrade. We pretty much knew once it was established that there wasn't a free upgrade(outside of the Mamba Edition), that there was little incentive to buy the standard version. Unless you had no plans of getting next gen console at launch, there was little incentive to get the standard 2k21 since only thing that tranfers is MyTeam and VC.
I wonder if the current gen Mamba Edition will go on sale.i i don't buy VC, but I wouldn't mind taking advantage of the VC bonus for the Mamba Edition version if it goes on sale

The thing is the NBA season literally just ended. I get people not seeing the value in the game being 60$ because of the circumstances. The rosters were the same as 2K20. I think we all suspect that 2K21 next gen is going to be the best version. What I don't get is people griping about the price like you have to pay the 60$, just wait until its 20$ or whatever you feel a fair price is. There's nothing wrong with 2k20 if that's your thing. The same people are saying not enough has changed anyway so why not stick with the old game?
I want to get Crash Bandicoot 4. I'm not paying 60$ for it, though. I can wait until its 20-30$. New games retail for 60$. I get that. More power to the publisher and the people who buy the game. It just reeks of entitlement to me how people complain about what these games should or shouldn't cost when we all know the deal. Madden is 40$ right now and I saw where M21 had one of the best releases to date. Heres a chance to save some money for folks. Get on it if you see the value. If not not, it'll drop some more later. What's the problem?

Honestly, if it was a normal NBA timeline, I probably would have pre-ordered the Mamba edition. Since it was still the same rosters from NBA 2K20, and there were a few minor changes, I didn't see a real reason to buy it. Especially if you consider that COVID-19 and the next-gen release would have had an impact on the development process.

Madden 21 had #FixEAFranchise and #NFLDropEA trend in top spots globally. I’d hardly call that a great release.

I wouldn't consider that great, either. However Madden still saw almost 20% increase year over year. I'm not saying its good or bad, it is what it is. These games are gonna sell regardless. That's another reason why I don't follow the logic of a discounted release, even under the current circumstances. I see the value not being there like ksutton said and people sitting out for that reason. It's totally fair. I get that. 2K21 released with the exact same roster we had on 2K20. I know there were other gameplay improvements but is it 60$ worth? IDK. I enjoyed 2K20 and 2K21 is an improved version of it so its worth it to me; plus I got the next gen version covered in the process so I got some value there.

Wait where are all the fan boys that went out and purchased this game when it came out?? Did nobody question why or how 2K dropped two video games in the same season?? What’s joke. I’m still waiting for 2k sports to be sued for micro transactions and charging $60+ for a broken basketball game. The last good 2k was 18. I bought 19 and my career and pro am sucked. I only DL 20 because it was free in the PS store. And don’t hold your breath for next gen because the first 1-2 nba 2ks on a new generation are broken too. NBA 2k23 will probably be Fire!! Until then 2k should be charging $20 a game and $0 if they want a scorned buyer since 2000 to play this game again. Oh yea bring back NBA 2K18 servers so I can have a fun pro am experience again!!!

Lol did someone say 20 was better than 21 lol?

Not just Amazon. Bestbuy too
