May 2025

I give this game a marginal thumbs up. Mechanics-wise it is a decent successor to NBA Jam and a fair amount of fun to play. It is eight years old, though, and it is dead online. There is no online multiplayer and no daily challenges available, so you can't upgrade your players fully. And yes, there is a loot system to gain decent players. That's not really that bad; four quick exhibition games generally gets enough credits to purchase a gold pack, which usually contains one legend-rank character. If you are playing for casual fun I recommend this game. If you want something competitive you should probably look elsewhere.

Its good but my online servers will not work, it says that i have to agree with the policy even though i have already done that.

this is a modern take on the NBA Jam formula. yes, the game is grindy, but unlocking the characters is a foundation for a progression feeling. the biggest issue with the game is a lack of cloud saves.

Dec. 2024

Online play is gone, but its just a simply addictive time-waster. Easy mechanics to learn, tough to master. Fast paced and local play is smooth. Worth a couple bucks on sale. Grin out a season and 3-point contest to unlock cards pretty quickly.

SO UNREALISTIC! And I love it. Good, chill arcade style basketball. Its a real fat bummer that you cant complete any of the daily changes now that the game is pretty much sidelined. So, if you want to unlock any of the swag or court editor pieces, you are going to have to pay... probably a lot. Luckily you can still unlock all of the players.
