Matt Leone of 1UP.com complained of the Xbox 360 version's "biggest setback -- it doesn't have the instant visual appeal, next-gen look, or out-and-out raw emotion that gamers want to lớn see in a next-gen sports game. The actual mechanics of the game are quite strong (the shot stick and không tính phí throw system are perhaps the best mechanics we've seen in a basketball game to lớn date), and it has all the depth and options we've come to lớn expect from a veteran basketball series. If you're an optimist, NBA 2K6.feels lượt thích a natural evolution of the franchise more kêu ca something that makes you want to lớn rush out and buy it to lớn show off your shiny new console. If you're a pessimist, well, the game isn't much more kêu ca a high-definition port of its excellent current-gen counterparts. Shouldn't we expect more out of a next-gen sports game?"^[35] Matt Martin of Eurogamer thought the PlayStation 2 version's soundtrack was "excellent", praised the gameplay for its refinements and additions, liked the Association for its depth, and said the designs of the players are "very realistic". He said that even though some visual aspects are "blocky and rough", such as the crowd, the motion capture and animation is "top notch", which in turn allows players to lớn move lượt thích their real life counterpart. Martin did, however, dislike the introduction of a new control scheme, calling it "unnecessary", and said the menus were "ugly" and "broken", wishing there was a more simple system in place.^[10]

IGN's Jonathan Miller said of the Xbox 360 version: "In the over, NBA 2K6 is a solid basketball title that really rests on the laurels of its predecessors. Even though the game can look absolutely amazing at time, it's still, at its heart, the same exact game that we saw in the current generation. While 2K6 was a very good game on those consoles, we want to lớn be blown away by our next-generation games. Someone who already owns the current-gen version will be hard pressed to lớn drop $59.99 on this version, but those new to lớn the series may want to lớn look into it. It's still the best basketball title on the 360. Unfortunately, that isn't saying too much."^[26] Ronnie Hobbs of GameZone felt the gameplay of the same console version was good, but could have been better, thought the player's designs were "unbelievably life-like", but other visuals, such as the court, were lacking, praised the commentary, calling it "perfection", and liked the "fun" online modes, even if partially plagued by technical issues. Hobbs summed up the review by saying: "In my opinion NBA 2K6 is the best basketball game available on the 360, but whether it's worth the $59.99 price tag is going to lớn be up to lớn you. The decision is a no-brainer for people who don't already own it on the Xbox or PS2, but for those who have played it before, the slick presentation just might not be enough to lớn warrant an upgrade."^[3]

Bob Colayco of GameSpot said of the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions: "NBA 2K6 isn't for the casual basketball người hâm mộ who doesn't know a pick and roll from picking his nose. The difficulty of the game, and new interface nuances, may be a little overwhelming for someone who's more attuned to lớn something lượt thích NBA Jam or NBA Street. But for those looking for a quality simulation basketball experience, NBA 2K6 is a resounding slam dunk and is easily recommendable to lớn any người hâm mộ of the series or to lớn any hardcore basketball người hâm mộ in general."^[16][17] VideoGamer.com's Greg Vallentin praised the simulation gameplay and the amount of nội dung, but criticized the Xbox 360 version for not offering enough improvements. He stated: "NBA 2K6, lượt thích its predecessors, delivers a solid simulation basketball game that's worth picking up if you've got a hankering for the sport, not to lớn mention the fact that's it's incredibly affordable."^[36]
