An easy choice for party games. As for a single player game, though it contains cool mini-games and nice customization features, the lack of depth in the gameplay and that annoying AI make NBA Hoopz a game that you grab only when you have company over.
-
AllDreamcastThe various modes of play and excellent multiplayer aspects do a good job of keeping things fresh, but sooner or later, you'll find it tough not to look at NBA Hoopz as tired and cheap, and that dreaded "been there, done that" feeling will rear it's ugly head.
-
The addictive and fun head-to-head gameplay takes some time to wear out its welcome, and the new options included in the game will pacify NBA Jam veterans enough to warrant a rental.
-
Breathes fresh new life into a basketball game genre that has been very repetitive, in terms of games.
-
NBA Hoopz smacks you in the face and dares you not to have a blast playing it with some friends.
-
NBA Hoopz comes off as a simulation wannabe, simultaneously betraying "Showtime" fans and only weakly attracting serious hoop addicts. Stick with "NBA 2K1."
-
If you want a glimpse of what the NBA might look like if Vince McMahon were the commissioner, then you owe yourself a look at NBA Hoopz.
-
There are a few new mini-games thrown in, and the crazy cheat codes are back, but they're a fleeting distraction at best. This game is worth nothing to people who have played one of these before.
