Looking back, there are a few ways it couldвЂ™ve been better, and teams that wouldвЂ™ve been preferable. However, as with The Jordan Challenge, NBAвЂ™s Greatest wasnвЂ™t perfect.

The level of detail with the retro presentation was very impressive, and itвЂ™s a feature that would be really fun to have when playing with historical teams in future NBA 2K games. As I remarked in my retrospective on NBAвЂ™s Greatest, it was a fantastic follow-up to The Jordan Challenge, and added new content to NBA 2K12 with the lockout of 2011 delaying the inclusion of the new rookies and updated rosters. I had a lot of fun reimagining The Jordan Challenge back in June, so I thought IвЂ™d give the same treatment to NBAвЂ™s Greatest. This week, IвЂ™m reimagining NBAвЂ™s Greatest in NBA 2K12. YouвЂ™ll also find old NLSC editorials re-published with added commentary, and other flashback content. Check in every Wednesday for retrospectives and other features on older versions of NBA Live, NBA 2K, and old school basketball video games in general. This is Wayback Wednesday, your midweek blast from the past! In this feature, we dig into the archives, look back at the history of basketball gaming, and indulge in some nostalgia. LetвЂ™s compare these two great modes across some key criteria as we take a look backвЂ¦way backвЂ¦ IвЂ™ve covered both The Jordan Challenge and NBAвЂ™s Greatest in several articles for Wayback Wednesday, but the question remains: which is the superior mode? Both modes took NBA 2KвЂ™s retro content to a new level, providing some fun challenges and establishing a precedent for all future releases as far as including a variety of historical teams. That changes today with what will hopefully be the first of many вЂњVersusвЂќ articles for Wayback Wednesday, as IвЂ™m comparing The Jordan Challenge to NBAвЂ™s Greatest. Something that I havenвЂ™t done yet is to directly compare a couple of retro games, modes, or features, and conclude which one is superior. From retrospective reviews and profiles of modes and features, to interesting trivia and media from yesteryear, itвЂ™s my goal to cover a broad range of throwback content. I like to mix things up here in Wayback Wednesday. This week, IвЂ™m comparing The Jordan Challenge in NBA 2K11 to NBAвЂ™s Greatest in NBA 2K12.
