    Straddles the line between arcade and simulation nicely. Players move, look, and behave in a realistic fashion, but fatigue, substitutions, and playcalling don’t interrupt the fun.

    Delivers on the street but stumbles on the hoops. [6 Sept 2002, p.89]

    While not an entirely bad game, Street Hoops misses the mark completely and doesn’t fully capture the passion of an authentic street game.

    With the bad defensive AI and awful collision detection problems and the unrealistic every-shot-is-good offensive abilities of the CPU opposition, the only ones who may be interested in buying Street Hoops are players that have actually hooped it up on some of the real-world courts contained in the game.

    A credible first effort, but it’s not enough to knock off NBA Street from its throne, gambling options aside.
  6. TotalGames.net

    Without the huge stars of the NBA to play against, it already falls flat next to EA’s "NBA Street" and despite all of its urban trappings this is a very bland and unexciting ballgame.
  7. Game Revolution

    Street Hoops tries to capture the sensationalized style of hardcore playground ball, but only manages to come off as a weak, thinly veiled copycat.
