3.0 out of 5 stars Fun at first but gets old fast November 13, 2005

Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   

I was hooked into this game for about a week and then beat it. It has a career mode where you start out with a few players and try to beat top teams in various cities, adding their best player when you do beat them. If you have played an NBA Street game before, you probably know the style of the game. For those who haven't played NBA Street, the game is played by ones to 21. There are also trick points where if you get a certain amout you get a gamebreaker. If you score a basket during a gamebreaker, it gives you points but also subtracts points from the opponent. This game has no online, poor graphics and limited minigames, three very big cons for me. I would recommend buying NBA Live 2006, which has online and franchise, but I don't own it yet.

I have only played this game for one day and already I love it. The quick games are cool. It is a three on three game. You could pick reaglur basketball teams, NBA leagens of all time, or you could have NBA superstars of now. One more thing. In the quick games you could also play shot blocker where you have to block the shots that players are trying to make. If you have a PSP it is highly reccomended.

This is an awsome game for the psp. You should definetely pick this game up at a store. There are party play games which include ''shot blocker'' and ''arcade shootout''. There is wireless head to head mode. This game also includes ea's pocket trax which is when you get to listen to any of the songs from the game. Also King of the court mode. So pick this game up its awsome!!!blue

of course you can't expect the ps2 experience to translate to the psp. gameplay is entirely different, even with gamebreakers and such. would make a great way to pass time on long flights or rides if there were mini-games.

5.0 out of 5 stars this game has it all September 17, 2005

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

though the series nba street never seems to change, the game it self is real fun. it comes packed with features such as just a regular game of street ball. There is also a story mode which you also unlock stages for the regular game of street ball. you can create your own character and choose his stats too. something strange, not in a bad way, but you can do tricks like handstands and more. there are many teams and players to choose from such as kobe bryant. this includes mini-games such as arcade shootout and shot blocker. It also has a really cool music track variety and a sports announcer too. It really is a good game and it will keep you entertained for hours. Its an A++++++++++++ i RECOMMEND THIS!

You know how Michael Jordan loves to fly through the air, as he is gonna slam in two, and stick out his tongue? That's how I feel when I play this game! I love it, living my Michael Jordan fantasy, as I cruise along on my local city bus, or BART. I just love it.

No, I don't stick out my tongue when I play this game, but I still love to play it!

I recommend this game for any "couch baller" who loves to slam it down to sounds of the street. Stand up, and be represented, dawgs!
