This game is very fun. All of the new features work very well in this game. The addition of the new gamebreaker is cool. It is not just automatic what will happen, you get to control it. The signature after the gamebreaker dunk is a nice touch too. The street challenge mode has many different possibilities. Different things happen all the time and it is interesting what will happen next. There are many different types of games available in it. Also you get to play with more players in v3 instead of v2. In v2 you encountered mostly big name guys, but in v3 you get to see all sorts of players. The customization in the game is unbelievable, you can have endless customization on your created player’s body, or clothes. Also, in the new “Court Creator” mode, you can alter all aspects of a court. A very cool thing, which is available just to play, or at random points during the Street Challenge, is the Dunk Contest. The contest is very much like the new gamebreaker, but you can use props to jump over, or throw it to yourself. One thing I liked was that stats are out of 99, instead of just 5 in v2. This new part gives players more uniqueness in playing ability. It also makes it so it takes longer to get your player to as good a skill as good NBA players. A downside to v3 is there is no NBA challenge mode. This was in v2, and you would play all NBA teams, unlocking Legends.v3 tries to make up for this by making a short NBA season in Street Challenge mode, but it is not the same. Another awesome new feature is the trick stick, which gives a much bigger variety to the tricks you can do. A person will be able to select 40 tricks at a time, with 120 total in the whole game. Lastly v3 has online capabilities, which can give you more playing time once you beat street challenge. If you have read through all of this, then you have a long attention span, and hopefully you now know why v3 has lots of good features, which help make this game worth buying.
