 An Even Better Street! February 24, 2008

I've played all of the NBA Street games since the PS2 and Xbox versions. I think this is a nice fourth installment. I questioned it for some reason last year when I had it for the 360, but I purchased it for the PS3 and I really like it. It has a very high replay value. Unlike the NBA Live 08 or NBA 2K8, it's fun and not too serious. I mean all the power up moves are like NBA Jam (arcadic). I just think when you play video games they should be fun and no too serious. I like how you can play w/ or w/o a shirt and being a female I like the WNBA option as well. All and all it's a lot of fun, plus now it's like $30 not $60 like when it first came out and that makes it even better.
You cannot go wrong w/ buying or renting this game, you won't be dissappointed.
Thanks
 Not as good as the others January 24, 2008

I have to admit, this is the worst streets yet. I dont think this game was worth the $9 I spent on it. Alot of good deep poetry and vibing soulful Hip Hop; but if your not buying it for that, I suggest sticking with the classics. Thanx for reading.
I really enjoyed this game! December 26, 2007

I dont know why so many people have been hating on this game. I think it was a great first NBA Street game to hit the next gen systems. I dont think any NBA Street will be as good as Vol. 2 but, this game still has a lot to offer. In High Def it looks awesome, and although almost all of the tricks and dunks are totally impossible to do in real life, it is still really really fun! Plus now that the price is dropped its not hard to find this game for under 20 bux.. definately worth it!

Poor game balance October 9, 2007

I am not going to talk about what should be obvious or something that has already been mentioned.
I will give my reason as to why I can't enjoy this game. There is no balance between the inside game (dunks) vs. the outside game (3 pointers).
Sure, we all love dunks too but I got pretty bored with the unrealistic dunks rather quickly and this is where I wish there was some balance to the game. EA made shot blocking so easy that 99% of jump shots can be goaltended. Again, I understand this is not a sim but some balanced gameplay would have meant much better game play.
