Even though it's better than Live 06 in gameplay, the graphics are a major downfall, as well as presentation...
Your typical basketball game really. You have your normal pass, shoot, steal, etc control setup and you play til someone wins. I can't really explain the gameplay better than you play basketball.
Graphics:
I don't have an HDTV, so this game looks like a high resolution PSOne game. The difference between what I saw and what the screenshots on this site show are HUGE. I didn't know HD could make a game go from looking like an PS1 game to something you watch on television.
Sound:
The cometators and crowd sounds are just looped over and over. The comentators say the same 5 lines over and over and the crowd just uses the same one expression depending on whether you miss a shot or make one. Lame.
Replay:
I don't really find this game to have much replay at all. And for those looking for achievements only really won't have any. I unlocked all 5 achievements in the first game I played.
Overall:
Granted I liked this game better than NBA Live 06, I still find it to be a very dull basketball game. Maybe it's just me, but I'm really starting to enjoy basketball games like NBA Street more than I am the realistic ones.
