Fun Game, But Really Easy
User Rating: 7.9 | NFL Street 2 PS2
I was not sure about this game when I rented it because I was really mad about the difficulty of the original game. But I am glad I rented it because it is really good. You can do different stuff in the interactive environments. For example you can throw or catch passses of the wall or you can dive into the endzone from the wall. I was really impressed by the Own The City Mode. I liked the idea of going ot different places in a town and playing street football. the only way you can beat that level is by doing all of the different challenges it wants you to do. Some of the challenges include Pickup Games and a bunch of different mini games. The mini games are really cool. They consist of games like seeing who can catch the most catches or who can hold the ball the longest without losing it. You can change your character a lot by adding things like jewlery, throwback jerseys, or tattoos. There are a few flaws though. I said that the first one was too hard, I think they made this one a little too easy. I cannot remember how many teams I would beat 30 to 0 in a pickup games pretty much all you had to do was do tricks off the wall and get game breakers. Another flaw is that it is so unbelievable. Just think about this situation. You are at the 5 yard line and you throw all the way to the end zone where a reciever tips it and then is tipped by a defender then your other receiver dives and catches it with one hand. Just think that could never happen. At least in the NBA street franchise you need to have a little skill to make 3's or creative slam dunks. Final Thoughts: This is a overall good game. If you like the NBA Street games chances are you will be a fan of this. But, if you hate games that are really unbieleably and you want realism, this is not your kind a game pick up Madden or ESPN 2K5.
