I don't know why I torture myself with these games. I really don't like them, I have no real interest in them and yet I play them and suffer. Maybe if someone loaned it to me I wouldn't mind so much but this was a painful experience.
The last Ballers game really wasn't too horrible. It wasn't great but no where near as bad as this. The coolest feature is a story mode, that has no story and instead is more of a challenge mode. This is a boring chore more than anything else. When you get to one of the later chapters you need to beat someone without allowing them to score. How is that a story? it's a disguised challenge mode with lame challenges.
The game offers some one on one, some two on two and some one on one on one. It all plays the same and the AI tends to be amazing. The game allows for slick moves and exciting dunks but without a manual (this was a rental) I was unable to figure out half of the stuff.
It became more of a chore than anything else really. The game does offer some super easy achievements if you're willing to play through the entire game. Besides that the game also offers some on-line play. No one seems to play it. I ran into two people in one hour. The entire on-line boils down to you picking the best player with perfect stats, walk and shoot a three pointer that has a 98% chance of landing and just see who scores the most. You will almost always win if you steal the ball once.
The entire game is just a bore. The only thing it does well is provide some nice visuals. Character models look great and the courts are both interesting and unique. Well, unique in the sense of something out of an episode of Cribs.
Maybe you will like this game but I haven't met anyone who has liked this game as it's a big ole snorefest. One of the worst games to hit in 2008 and this so far has been the worst year of gaming in a long time with only one real title worth picking up so far for the consoles.
