A good game that'll keep you occupied for a while!

The Good
I can customize the teams, make them basically however I want, then use my teams or pre-made teams and play other teams. I can compete in tournaments, play a season set-up, turn on hot spots or power-up icons and play against friends. Up to four people can play this game at a time, 2 on a team, or you can play by yourself and have a CPU play then other member of your team. It's hard to tell all the fun of this game in a review, and it's not the best but it's worth playing. The controls are the easiest to master that you'll ever find. Their's no music during gameplay but the opening music is quite good and gets stuck in your head.

The Bad
Although the music is good, it can get annoying after hearing it alot. It's fun to make your own team's, but it takes a lot of time. And after playing this game for a couple hours 3 or 4 days in a row you put it away and don;t touch it again for 6 more moth's, cause it doesn't keep your attention for that long, though every time you play it it's cool.

The Bottom Line
A good basketball game with terrific control's, easy to master and a lot of fun. But after a while it gets boring, cause every match is pretty much the same.
