Oh my god I cant even begin to explain how hot this game will be. I agree with you when you said when you first saw screenshots of the game you werent sure.Recently I got a demo of this game and I have not stopped playing it!This game is gonna be so real you get to make your own baller from a list of namebrand clothes,jewlery,you own haircut and what not? It is going to be sooo much better than Nba Street.You get to bet Virtual cash on new gear.Plus, its got a hot soundtrack to play with and it supports up to five people.This is truly gonna be a good game for parties so you can dominate your friends in the game even if you cant do it in real life.Truely,after playing this game i dare say this game makes Nba Street look like a bunch of grade-school newbies playing against highschoolers...

fun if slightly forgettable

After reading some harsh reviews of this game I expected the worst, however, I can honestly say Street Hoops is actually pretty decent. Even fun at times.

While it won't win any awards for depth or simulation, Hoops is a quick game to get into and provides a solid challenge. This is "urban" b-ball, complete with attitude, rap music, and street fashion. At least this is Activision's version of ghetto ballin', so take it all in stride.

I found myself turning off the annoying announcer and the trash talking, as both of these become played out in a matter of 2 or 3 games. Probably more like 1 game, first half.

The action/graphics look good, and the dunks are phat as well.

All in all this game is decent.

Solid Game

THIS GAME IS PHAT. THE HIPHOP MUSIC ALONE MAKES THIS GAME SOLID. THE CONTROLS ARE THE SAME AS TO NBA LIVE, THE GRAPHICS ARE DECENT, NBA STREET IS BETTER. NO NBA PLAYERS BUT YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE YOUR SQUAD INCLUDING NAMEBRAND CLOTHING, BUY JEWELRY, AFROS OR CLEAN SHAVE, NO SHIRT. THE COMPUTER IS TOUGH, YOU CAN'T JUST GO AROUND AND DUNK IT VERY TIME. HOWEVER, BLOCKING SEEMS TRICKY TO MASTER. U CAN SHOVE, PUSH PLAYERS AND THEY WON'T LOSE THE BALL. YOU CAN MAKE BETS ON YOUR GAMES. GREAT GAME TO PLAY WITH OTHER PLAYERS, BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND RENTING IT FOR A WEEK FIRST.

A little bit of everything

Thisa game is awesome. I was a little weary of buying it at first, but once I started playing it, I couldn't put it down. My wife isn't a big fan of it, and I get an attitude from her when I try to show her the cool videos they have of the streetballers. I love it. Unlock the videos on the game, and sit back and enjoy some talented basketball players. People compare it to NBA Street, but I think these are two different games. NBA Street is a little too "cartoony" for my taste. The only drawback on Street Hoops, is the announcers. I just turn them off.

awsome just awsome

This is more than a game it comes with 3 and1 mixtapes aswell as about 4 video clips the music sets the mood and the gameplay is easy to get the hang of and once you unlock the and1 ballers you can do their special moves you can also create your own ballers and then pay for them to get better. over all this game is definately worth the buy.

Great Multiplayer Action, But...

My brother bought this game a little while after it first came out. We played around with it a while, mainly on multiplayer since there's two of us, and it was really fun. Great gameplay, graphics, etc. But when we started playing 1 player, whether it be quick play or tournament, neither of us, nor any of our friends, could beat the CPUs. They almost ALWAYS made three point shots, from half court, sometimes even behind that. But our team couldn't make shots more than 50% of the time even being just a short distance from the hoop! We got really frustrated and decided to get NBA Street, so now we use that for 1 player, and Street Hoops when we want some good multiplayer action. All in all, it's an o.k game if you're gonna play with friends, but if you're looking to play and win by yourself, forget it!

Oh Baby!!!!!

I love this game.
It's lets me tour with the guys, but I'm not actually there.
I feel as if Im part of the game.
I felt like Im on the jV team.
Playin players like Ao, HOt shizzle, Main event, 1/2 man, and all the playground legends.

I recommend this game to all the hardcore streetballer and ballerites

I was looking forward to Street Hoops, and held out on buying NBA Street until after I played both games. Having now done so, I finally purchased NBA Street. Street Hoops is a decent game, but the novelty of the game runs out very quickly. It's fun to "break ankles" and "teabag" opponents, but the game's fun-factor stopped for me after the first few games.

Good intentions with bad graphics

The graphics weren't the best. It didn't measure to the original street hoops, "NBA Street." The players were too small to enjoy the fancy moves they did on the court.
