360, and Nintendo Wii. It was developed by Visual Concepts and published by 2K Sports, a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive. Michael Jordan is the game's cover athlete. NBA 2K11 features a soundtrack consisting of 27 songs. Reception According to the review aggregation website Metacritic, the Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions of NBA 2K11 all received "generally favorable" reviews from critics upon release. The PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, and Nintendo Wii versions of the game do not hold an aggregated score on the website, due to a lack of reviews. Matt Bertz of Game Informer praised the Michael Jordan-centric mode, calling it "must-play", the realistic presentation, the well-rounded gameplay, the controls, and the soundtrack, describing it as the best in any sports game of the year. Bertz experienced some technical issues, but described them as being minor, finishing his review by saying that other basketball games are inferior to NBA 2K11. GameSpots Tom Mc Shea called NBA 2K11 a "huge improvement" over NBA 2K10, citing the "lifelike" presentation, improved artificial intelligence, and "overhauled" controls as reasons for that. He also enjoyed the addition of classic NBA teams, even if he felt that the Michael Jordan-focused mode didn't provide enough entertainment. Mc Shea's biggest criticism of the game focused on the technical issues he encounters, particularly in regard to the online modes. Richard Grisham from GamesRadar wrote: "No hoops junkie should miss NBA 2K11. It's not just another yearly update with some obligatory back-of-the-box modifications; it's a loving study of the greatest player of his generation and his biggest rivals, played out with beautiful sights and sounds that remind us just how great the Air Jordan era was." By August 2011, the game had sold over 5.5 million copies worldwide.
