NBA Street: Home Court

NBA Street: Home Court Description

The National Basketball Association unlike, for example, the Football Association, encourages groups of six lads (or lasses) to expend energy and up their skill levels with three-on-three games of fast-paced B-ball. And so does NBA Street Homecourt. In the fourth iteration, while the legends are gone, you get to play against current NBA stars who are split into their home towns - and that's the core, the heart of the matter. You are playing for real for the honour of your turf (albeit that turf's all in the USA, but that's what you expect from an NBA game). Start your career by creating a player, choosing a hometown, then skilling up so that your homecourt becomes nationally known. Do this by beating other teams, earning points and building your teams skills and abilities up. It's fast, furious and then there's Flight Control for the kind of dunking that really makes for serious street action. The Gamebreaker returns, and the Trick Remixer system gives you even more options to immerse yourself in that hardcore, basketballing bravado. Graphics and sound have been tweaked up to match the in-game action; with learning curves just paced to take you from beginner to all-star.

Trick Remixer: This all-new trick system gives you the ball and puts it in your hand. Take control of your player's rhythm mixing quick tricks with elaborate moves using two trick buttons. Perform crossovers with an instantaneous response and string together the perfect blend of combinations to take over any game.

Game Breaker: Unleash a whole new set of over-the-top tricks and electrifying dunks, or watch in disbelief as your rival steals away the opportunity. Whoever has the money ball owns the Game Breaker, so releasing it into play is only the start of the pulse-pounding action.

Take Your Game to New Heights: All-new dunk controls keep you engaged from take-off to throw down. Rule the court above the rim by leaping off a teammate's shoulders for a jump-off dunk or pull-off the ultimate double dunk.

Showcase your Master Skills: The best NBA players have hidden master skills that separate them from the rest. Take them head on as you level up your created baller and make him a master in his own right.

Become a Homecourt Hero: Go from an unknown talent to a playground legend and put your homecourt on the map by dominating courts from coast-to-coast. Create a baller, improve his game, and feel his confidence build after every win. It's your turn to take on the NBA's best and walk away a hero.

Every Legend has a Beginning: The NBA's best all came from somewhere and many built their skills and reputations in their hometown playgrounds including NBA Stars Carmelo Anthony and Richard Hamilton. Earn the right to take them on head-to-head in their real-life homecourts.

Fresh Create-a-player: New Create Player system allows you to quickly create avatars by melding your favorite NBA stars into the ultimate baller. Mix and match the likes of Vince Carter and LeBron James for leaping ability, Allen Iverson and Chris Paul for ball handling, and Ray Allen and Peja Stojakovic for superior shooting skills.

That Girl's Got Game: Six of your favourite WNBA stars are featured for the first time ever, including Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird and Sheryl Swoopes.
