Therein lies NBA 10's beauty. It packs so much good stuff into such a small package that GamesRadar easily overlooks its few faults in favor of its multitudes of success. While it may not be the best pure basketball game you'll ever play, it's definitely tons of fun on many different levels. It's also their favorite PSP hoops game of the season, which, considering how good they all are, is really saying something.
All in all, this is a very solid game. It manages to provide an enjoyable basketball experience for the whole spectrum of basketball fans; deep enough for the hardcore NBA fan, yet still approachable for the novice. While even the Recruit difficulty is more difficult than PSLS would like to see, it is still a very fun, playable experience.
Even after you have exhausted your thirst for basketball, there is still a lot of fun to be had with the mini-games. If *wink* *nudge* they were to release the mini-games as a standalone bundle on the PSN, they would find their coffers overflowing.
Gamerevolution: I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller... And in some cases never picked at all...
It's gotta be a little lonely being an outside party to EA Sports' decadent conglomerate orgy. Imagine being that kid in after-school extracurricular basketball who is always picked second. Despite having trained harder than ever this season, you harbor a hidden acknowledgment that you'll never be quite as formidable of a baller as the jerk-ass who just made team captain. How do you save face? Maybe if you bring your teammates a bunch of crap unrelated to actually playing basketball like fresh-baked cookies or beer, they'll love you, err... more?
A well priced, good looking, decent playing, stuffed to the gills PSP basketball title. Diehard GameFAN honestly didn't think they'd be saying this when they first opened this one up, but it was a lot of fun reviewing this one and they're glad it made its way to them. Diehard GameFAN think any PSP owner who's a basketball fan should have this title. Between the smooth gameplay and all the extras, you really get your money's worth on this one.
