Solid game with simulation like game play. Quite a step forward for this type of game.
This game is quite sim feeling. Shots will not always be made, dunks will sometimes hit the back of the hoop, passes and steals are possible but not that easy to pull off. In other words, this game feels real. As a result, you can't help but to get immersed in the game. You will love playing this on your local console with your friends.
Overall, this game is good and well worth the likely 20 dollar bargain bin price it likely carries at a store near you. If you like simulation style gameplay with an arcade concept, then this game is a perfect fit for you. It is the closest you can get to the court without actually being there.
