NBA Ballers (Xbox, 2004)

First off without a doubt NBA Ballers is the best 1 on 1 basketball game on the xbox system. I enjoyed this game the whole time I played it. Of course I beat this game just like every other game I play, I strive to beat it. There is T.V tournament mode and Rags to Riches mode. The T.V tournament mode there is really no storyline. All you do is take other players on 1 on 1 and when you beat a bracket then you get credits to buy new moves or new attire for you Baller. On Rags to Riches mode you create your own Baller and go through multiple tournaments to reach your goal of defeating NBA pros and earning street credit for yourself. You can unlock moves with the credits you'll earn in Rags to riches mode as well on T.V tournament mode. There is Play Now mode as well which is just a quick game of 1 on 1 basketball.
The Graphics are O.K. I give them a 7. NBA Ballers is an arcade basketball game and you'll get what you'd except from an arcade basketball game. No complaints really.

Gameplay- 7
The game play is O.K. The game play is a little fast but NBA Ballers is just a nice fun smooth arcade basketball game.

Controls- 7
The controls are pretty easy to get used to. You shouldn't really have any trouble adjusting after a while. If you play NBA Live or NBA 2K the series they you'll have to get used to the different controls but overall the controls are easy to get used to.

I've played this game for many hours before I sold it. Now I didn’t sell it because I didn’t like it, I sold it because I knew I could get my money back for the game I just beat. It'll take you a week or two to beat the game unless you sit there all day and play. I suggest that you really should go and play this game if you love 1 on 1 basketball games. Though the newest NBA Ballers game is out and I have not played that game yet but if I were you then I would check out that game before this one. This is a great game but if the first ones good then the second one has to be better. I suggest you rent this at first you maybe shouldn’t buy it if you don’t have a lot of money. I picked this game up off ebay for $5. Then I sold it for $5. So I made my money back and had a good time. Now go out and play this game.

I dislike that the character was one person and you could not individualize him to fit your personality or style. i did like the fact that you could play ball with some of the stars of the NBA. but it would have been nice to have played with the stuff you bought instead of just spending moneyand getting to see what you bought put to use. all in all the game was cool I am glad I spent the money to buy this game.

I loved the whole game. how you play and buy nice exotic cars and GREAT HOUSES
if you don't have this, you should get it.

It is pretty cool because there are all kinds of the one-on-one characters and you can unlock all the players by beating them with your pre-made character. My disc broke for PS2 so i'm trying to get a new one, but for Xbox.

If you want a simple easy to play game this is it the 1 on1 on1 mode is the most competitive I have ever gotten into a video game!! It is just an arcadish almost NBA Jam that allows anyone who tries to have an easy experience that isn't over complicated by realism. A definite 5 for the first version!
