 Great fun, grea tprice February 11, 2007

Picked up this game several days ago for my son, and we have not been able to stop playing it! Can't belive I haven't seen or heard too much about this title...it's great fun. Combines the best of 'NBA Jam' type arcade style play, along w/fine graphics, exciting gameplay, photo-quality player likeness, and many, many different things to do and see. My only gripe is the painfully long load times between scenes, but worth waiting for. At under $20.00, it's a rare find. Enjoy this under-rated, FUN game!

Game is a lot of fun with many different things to do. It was shipped in a timely manner as well.
 Crippling load times, unhelpful menus November 14, 2006
A. Del Rosso (APO, AE United States)
The game is somewhat fun, overall, but the load times are torture. Also, there is a free roaming aspect in the shopping districts, but the camera never changes, so you can't rotate your direction (you can't see behind anything, and they frequently hide things behind objects). Why can't you know what's new in your wardrobe? I stopped trying to equip different clothes and shoes and such because of how long it takes to scroll between wardrobe changes, merely to see what a new item gave you in terms of benefits to stats. If you liked the first Ballers, you'll probably like this one, if only for a little while. I bought it 75% off, and am glad I did. If you love the soundtrack, they throw in a CD of it, which is nice--I love the two NFL Street soundtracks and wish they'd done that.

I bought this game about a week ago. I had not purchased the prequil (sp?) to this game and did not know what to expect.
I began playing the game and immediately got bored about 30-45 minutes later. I have no played the game since. Here's why:
The graphics, to me, are ridiculously annoying. It makes the game feel so unrealistic. The graphics are a step lower than "NBA Street" and even more unrealistic. The real problem is that there is just nothing to do. You enter tournements and they all feel the same. The little side missions are laughable, and I feel like turning off my Ps2 and smashing the controller on my head repetitively everytime I play one of them.
I can go on and on about why I hated this game. But I won't. The bottom line is that I strongly urge you not to waste your money. The cover and appearance of the game appealed to me and made me want to buy the game...but don't let that happen to you.

After playing this game for the third time I had a thought, 'WHY DID I BUY THIS!' This game is extremely unoriginal and gets boring very quickly. I cannot notice any difference and improvements from the first ballers and other NBA Street's. Save your money and do not purchase this dreadful game.
