NBA Street Homecourt pits your choice of more than 100 NBA stars -- and a half-dozen WNBA leaders -- against each other in three-on-three street games. The title references the players' favorite public courts, where the acrobatic games are set. We've seen these kinds of basketball titles before -- including the previous three NBA Street games -- but Homecourt uses a redesigned control scheme to set itself apart from previous versions. You can read a hands-on preview of the game over at Joystiq.com
Let's just state the obvious right now. If you're a basketball fan, you owe it to yourself to pick up NBA 2K13. It's a terrific sim, one that follows years of previously well done basketball games, and one that features plenty of content, both online and off.
But, for the sake of argument, let's also say you can't afford it. Or you prefer something outside the norm of playing a routine basketball sim. Or you're bummed about the cancellation of NBA Live 13 and just can't bring yourself to experience the stronger game, at least at the moment. Where else can you turn?

NBA Street is a phenominal series and I absolutely loved Homecourt. I hope they bring out another NBA Street and NFL Street sometime soon. But dunno after they shut down EA Sports BIG
Even GFW has better prices sometimes (got Batman AA for $12 ;)). NBA Homecourt was a major downgrade from Vol 3. Did I mention the price sucks?

Microsoft has revealed that this week’s addition to the Xbox 360’s Games on Demand service wwill be Electronic Arts’ NBA Street Homecourt. Originally released in 2007, NBA Street Homecourt was applauded by critics for it’s near-flawless procedural animation system during complicated tricks and combos.
this game is as common and cheap as dirt but they'll probably want $20-$30usd for it.
After the let-down that was NBA Street 3, I'm looking forward to this title big time. I like the way they've increased the interaction and customization of the controller, rather than just mashing combinations of shoulder buttons. I'm a little at odds with the present Gamebreaker system; I still like Street 2's the best thus far, not minding canned animations being used.
It's nice to see them including and recognizign WNBA players too. Ticha Penicheiro will be on my roster in a heartbeat :)
