Not a sim but awesome funJan 08, 2009
By Clint E. Adams Let me start off by saying that I have not encountered a single glitch, zero, zilch. (Of course, after I print this, it will probably glitch out on me.) That being said, this game is a great basketball game. The first thing you have to take into account is the fact that it isn't a deep sim. If you want that, you probably would be better off buying 2k9. The gameplay leans more towards arcade style without it being over the top. There is a deep progression system which gives the game a RPG type element. The addition of the downloaded game of the week system adds new content to the game every week during the season which is nice. There is a lot to do in this game from the Inside story system, to the Franchise mode, to quick play and online. Each area of the game gives you rewards for accomplishing tasks. Also, it includes trophies so you can brag to your friends on how much of a baller you are. Try this game, you may like it.

Fun if you are not looking for too much realismJan 31, 2009
By Glen Lothary I bought this game because it is one of the few 1080p games. The graphics in the title screens are great but the game play is no better than a 720p game. otherwise the play is fun and realitively easy. I wish there were a few more secret things in the game but it is ok to waste some time with.

You cant just listen to the reviews, this game to me is the best, and im not even choosing it just to say, I HAVE ALL THREE NBA GAMES, and this one is definitley amazing, the only prob with the game is that you are to acuurate, on a online game i shot 96 points with kobe, fun for me, not other dude though. Definitley a fun game and graphics are very good, and i love the replay system!!!

Give it a try, there is a good chance you will like this oneDec 01, 2008

I was very skeptical at first. All the professional reviews were raving 2k9 and dissing this one. Found it on black Friday deal for single digit prices. Iam very happy that I bought this one. Technically this is the best looking basket ball game out there. Graphics looks stellar. It may not have all the nuances of 2K series.. who cares. Unless you are fanatic it wont matter. The game plays silky smooth every thing works as expected. If you take time and setup your defense it is easy to play. Seriously give it a try if you see it on sale. There is a high chance you will like it.
I like the story mode in the game. You start from the streets and grow up to pro. It is better than madden be a pro mode. There is a good story that makes you to finish the single player campaign. If you want to show case the power of your PS3 pick this one... you friends will be awe struck when they see this one in action.

By Eric Gardiner Learning how to play the game is very difficult. The only good part about it was the franchise mode, without playing an actual game.
