3.0 out of 5 stars Good arcade Basketball game, May 24, 2009

If you're looking for an arcade basketball game, this is it. If you haven't played an NBA Street before, they are some of the most quality arcade basketball games on the market. Gameplay consists of many tricks and maneuvers to gain points and there is a lot of dunking involved. The game isn't realistic to any degree, but is a lot of fun to play co-operatively or competitively. However, the game does get boring pretty fast and therefore is only worth it if you plan to play it casually with friends.

4.0 out of 5 stars MAKE IT A GAMEBREAKER!, July 24, 2007

One thing you must know to play NBA STREET HOMECOURT: The key of any game is the GAMEBREAKER. Once your trick meter is full you can activate the gamebreaker by stepping into the yellow circle in the center of the court and pressing triangle. At this point, you can freestyle dance/dribble and really make some crazy combos. BUT BE CAREFUL. If you get TOO FANCY you may get your gamebreaker swiped by the other team. That's when things can get really interesting. Overall, this is an extremely entertaining game and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking to have an all out, crazy, unrealistic dunk-fest. By the way, that's not a bad thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Even Better Street!, February 23, 2008

I've played all of the NBA Street games since the PS2 and Xbox versions. I think this is a nice fourth installment. I questioned it for some reason last year when I had it for the 360, but I purchased it for the PS3 and I really like it. It has a very high replay value. Unlike the NBA Live 08 or NBA 2K8, it's fun and not too serious. I mean all the power up moves are like NBA Jam (arcadic). I just think when you play video games they should be fun and no too serious. I like how you can play w/ or w/o a shirt and being a female I like the WNBA option as well. All and all it's a lot of fun, plus now it's like $30 not $60 like when it first came out and that makes it even better.

You cannot go wrong w/ buying or renting this game, you won't be dissappointed.

Thanks
