    I just can't give this game a perfect score regardless of how bad I want to haha, ok it's not that this game was bad it just was off on so many things. The game was such a simplistic rendition of basketball and honestly that's ok. I just never found myself finding this game to be that fun unless you were with friends but I have to give it a good score because of that reason.

Games shouldn't be judged just on mechanics, graphics, sound, and etc. What makes a game good is how it seems to just take hours out of your life. Time seems to pass quicker when you pick up this game, honestly that's how I feel about it. My friends and I could play this game for a while and everyone has an equal chance rather when we play 2k, it's just the person that plays the most that always wins. Expand

  1. Every character model looks amazingly detailed, from the muscle tone to the facial features. Michael Jordan looks like Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain looks like the Stilt himself.
  2. The atmosphere of NBA Street is enhanced by an excellent soundtrack including hip-hop tracks from the likes of Nelly and Nate Dogg, plus various sound effects from the street - traffic, sirens, crowd abuse etc.
  3. A huge leap forward in the evolution of street basketball. It has numerous options, solid control, and engaging gameplay that will appease hardcore fans and casual ballers alike.
