Good Way for Kids to Have Fun w HoopsJul 01, 2004
By SandmanVI The game is not particularly hard, but that's exactly why I got it for my 5-year-old. He loves it and thinks the pros as kids are funny. It has helped attach him to the sport in general. You can ratchet up the difficulty as needed so I don't find that to be a problem. The graphics are solid though limited. I guess that's the biggest knock in that most things are limited. There aren't too many moves, the commentators get stale fast and there is not a whole lot of variation. Still this is done mostly to keep kids from being overwhelmed. A fun game to pick up for $20 for your b-ball loving child.

The best game ever invented!!!Jan 17, 2004
The best game i've ever played for playstation2. I recomend this game to everyone looking for a fun adventure. Too easy? Turn it on hard and feel what it's really like to play with the pros.

FANTASTIC GAMEDec 02, 2003
A GREAT GAME IT IS GREAT TO PLAY AS THE PROS WHEN THEY WERE KIDS. I LOVE TO PLAY THIS GAME AT MY COUSIN'S HOUSE. IT IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER
Good game but needs to be a bit harderJan 02, 2004
This game is very fun for the kid who likes the Backyard sports games. But the game could need to be bit more challenging. The first time I played this game it was good but the score was 108-36 in 12 total minutes. You can go ahead and buy it but if your lookin for a good challenge put the computer difficulty on Hard.
