Customer Reviews of NBA Ballers

UNCONVENTIONAL BUT GREAT
This game is not the conventional 5-on-5 basketball, but a new version of streetball. There are a lot of items and players that the owner can unlock and play with or against. Also, this game is a great game to play online to humiliate and embarass your friends and gain bragging rights. The graphics, contrary to popular belief, are very good and accurate, down to the player's face, muscular build, and even tatoos. The game is extremely realistic, with a complete array of streetball moves (crossover, step-backs, off-the-head dribble, etc.) Selling for just $40, this game is a deal of a lifetime. Using the almost unlimited options of moves on the controller, this game could have you hooked for hours! Buy this game, which is better than NBA Street Vol. 1 and 2 put together!!!

Very good game of streetball.
I don't feel like some the other reviews have given this game a fair chance. First of all, don't get this game if you are expecting a 5 on 5, fully officiated game of basketball. What this game gives you is one on one streetball action. Most of the games are best of 3 rounds, first one to 11 by twos and threes with a shotclock and time limit. If you've seen any of the AND 1 tour mixtapes you'll have an idea of what kind of basketball this is.

Onto the game itself. You have a lot of control on your juke moves (crossovers, stepbacks, fancy dribbles) using the right analog stick. You also have an arsenol of humiliation moves that you can do to embarrass your opponent using the square button. This however is less controled than your juke moves.

The player models in this game are AMAZING! Some of the best I've seen on any game. I'm a big fan of the NBA and all of the players are instantly reconizable, right down to their tatoos. Animations are dead on street ball, from the dunks to the celebrations players do afterwards. I HIGHLY RECCOMEND this game to anyone looking for an exciting game of basketball.

The Not So Realistic Life of NBA Ballers...
but still a blast to play! NBA Ballers is an NBA game with attitude. Yous tep in the shoes of the league's top players(my favorite being Melo), and you "live" the "actual" life of an NBA player. The environments, game modes, and everything about the game screams attitude and funk and style. But is it a great game or just another visual "showcase" game that every playa should have at his crib. Let me explain why it is a bit of both.
NBA Ballers obviously has more "uniqueness" put into it than gameplay effort. The gameplay is still great, maybe even too complex, but you don't pick up this game for its gameplay. Speaking of gameplay, there are MANY moves you can pull off. Remembering them all is a chore, but you'll get the hang of it sooner of later. Hard-core fans of all-star festivities. streetball, and the Harlem Globetrotters will find this right up their alley. If you prefer on-the-court games, you may want to try ESPN NBA Basketball. I am a fan of both styles, so I generally love this game.
NBA Ballers has bling, cars, and babes. In fact, you use money that you get from winning to unlock everything from hip-hop honeys to players like Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson. Don't worry about the NBA stars this game has to offer. It has PLENTY. You can find everyone from Kobe to T-Mac to King James in the roster. When looking at the legends menu, that is when the dissapointment sets in. There is no Michael Jordan or David Thompson. They have very few legends, but at least they remembered to include Dr. Julius Erving in the game!
There is a mode of play where you create a character, and play off against NBA stars on your way to owning cash, rides, and cribs. Also, this create a player feature is the best ever seen in a game. There is so much bling you will be rubbing your eyes! But seroiusly, there is a shirt section, a hat section, a bling section, a sunglasses section, and they are all packed with probably around 50 items. You can even tip your hat the way you want it. Don't like it on the left? Well, you can just put it on the right. You can also purchase NBA jerseys, shorts, and warmup gear, as well as player's tattooes.
The graphics are outstanding. The player models are the best ever seen in a sports game. You can see every mole on Steve Nash's head, every curve on Melo's corn rows. It is almost scary looking at these players. The environments are awesome in color and detail. Did I mention that they are also at players' cribs? That's right. You want to play at T-Mac's Florida home? Go for it.(Of course, he is in Houston now.)
The sound is standard. It features bland, but original rap tracks from some well-known and unknown artists. Also, the commentary from MC Supernatural(?)is just really, really sad. You want good commentary and music for a street ball game. Follow NBA Street's lead.
Obviously a lot of work went into this good game. The creators worked very closely with the player's association and the player's themselves. Everything from pictures to bling is authentic. The gameplay is great, with T-mac style alley-oops and A.I.'s mad crossovers. You can do just about everything in this game. Maybe it's because so much work went into this game that being just a good came makes it feel as if it isn't quite good enough. Definitely a terrific game for my fellow hoop fanatics.
