Definitely Worth buying - True to the Original with Upgrades.
This is the best version of the game EVER.
All of the original gameplay is here, along with crossovers and Alley-OOps.
The controls are accurate and simple - but you need to time your moves right.
The original play-by-play announcer - Tim Kitzrow is back and even more hilarious - with a bunch of new Jamonics.
The HD graphics are great - the player faces are crystal clear and they have different expressions depending on their actions.
The ability to Block shots depend on your timing - and when you get it right, it is pure JOY.
All of the teams are here - as well as "OLD SCHOOL" players (unlockable) - Magic, Bird, Dominique, Rodman, Hakeem and MUCH MORE.
There is so much content for single player mode here, as well as a Robust online feature set.
If you liked the Original - Or just looking for a Purely entertaining game - I highly Recommend.
I haven't been a fan of EA sports lately (poor NBA Live games) but THEY GOT THIS ONE RIGHT.
