FalakD.Apr 30, 2005This game I think is the best sports game for PSP so far. The arcade shootout and the shotblocker are very good mini-games for NBA Street:Showdown.

Gameplay issues aside, Showdown is still a very enjoyable game, mostly due to the fact that it offers a wide variety of game modes.

Play MagazineMy only focused gripe though is with the leaner trick system, which had been downgraded from implementation across the PS2's four shoulder buttons to a single PSP button. Small gripe. [May 2005, p.70]
