Product Description
NBA 2005 for PSP is the first, real, basketball simulation ever created for handheld entertainment systems, providing gamers with all the fast-breaks, precision passing, and above the rim action that fans have come to expect from their sport. Supporting multiple players via a Wireless multiplayer connectivity, NBA 2005 will test the skills of all hoopsters with a variety of gameplay options. During both single and multi-player gameplay, NBA 2005 features the 'Clutch' Shooting Mechanism, where a gamers skill and timing along their ability to pull off spin moves, jukes, pump fakes and other special moves will determine if the shot goes in or clanks off the rim.

1 out of 5 stars Worse game i've played on the psp   December 18, 2006

First off, my biggest complaint about the game is the precision shooting. Why not just press the button once and depending on a few variables (openess, players ability, or distance to the rim) the ball will go in or out. Instead you have to press the shot key twice. Also a turbo key would have been awesome. I don't think it is too much to ask as I recall the NBA Live games on PS1 had a turbo button. Obviously there are a few rules that the developers lost in translation as you can shoot the ball and have a long rebound travel back to the other side of the court and if you shot the ball you will be called for backcourt. The same goes for blocked shots and swipped balls that are touched by the opponent and travel across the half court line and then recovered by your team. I'm not exactly sure why anyone would by any sport game from this company and this game is no different.

This is the worst NBA game I have ever played in my life. The gameplay is terrible, the options are terrible, just about everything is. I wasted 30 bucks on this.


2 out of 5 stars This game bites   December 25, 2005

NBA is a very lacking and boring game. It's really no fun at all because you pretty much just play(it's way to simple for me). You can't even take free agents because it doesn't show any of there stats at all so it's pretty much a gessing game.The only good things about It is it has pretty good graphics and you can play infrastructure mode. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!


2 out of 5 stars Another Rushed PSP Title   August 10, 2005

Clearly 989, under pressure from Sony, rushed this game to market with little or no QA and testing. A good review of the rules of basketball - particularly the ridiculous back-court violations that occur in this game following blocked shots would have been a good start. Additionally, better play calling capabilities would make the game a bit more intelligent. Its fun and the graphics are good - but the being able to lob the ball the length of the court to Ray Allen who will hit a three everytime isn't the best mark of game design. Lot's of silly glitches and errors in this game and no attention to detail - players names aren't announced, no play-by-play put this game well below the standards set by other sports titles.


3 out of 5 stars Could've Been Better   July 30, 2005

I am a huge NBA fan, and I love NBA games... but this truly disappointed me. I think the price is about 5 or 10 dollars too high. Yes, it does have 2 player, and it's the only game I have ever seen the Skills Challenge from the All-Star Weekend, but it was not very entertaining. For example, you have to have 4 minute quarters in Season Mode, while in a pickup game, you can choose. I really hate that because you only have about say a 35 point game, while all of the other teams get scores around 90 points. So, you don't get a fair chance at getting into the All-Star Game. (even though I made it) Here are my final ratings.

Gameplay= 7/10

Audio= 8/10

Graphics= 7/10

Controls= 4/10

Features= 6/10

Overall= 7/10
