basketball

This game, as always, is a huge dissapointment for 989 Studios. The graphics are nowhere near PS2 levels. It looks almost identical to last years PS version. There is no dynasty mode. I played 8 games into a season as a mediocre team and was shooting 87% from the field and 81% from three. Way too easy to make shots for you and your opponent. You can rarely get a rebound in the rare instant you do miss. Also stealing the ball is very easy but way too many fouls are called when the computer is shooting. This may not be the worst game I ever played but it should go down as one of the worst for the PS2. If you are a diehard college basketball fan the try it before you buy it. If you just want a basketball game get NBA Live 2001.

This is an excellent game and it has all you need for a college basketball game. If anyone tells you that this game sucks and you shouldn't buy it, don't listen to them. You are able to work your way up through the top 25 and compete for the title. The gameplay is quick, and the controls are easy to master. I've played both nba live 2001 and this game, and final four is MUCH better. When I bought it I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but after 3 weeks of playing this game, I still like to play whenever I can. This game definately met my expectations and it should make yours.

I rented this game even after reading all of the reviews thinking maybe it would be better than what everyone was saying. So i decided to play my first game as my favorite team, the Boston College Eagles. Thats when i found its first obvious flaw. No, i didnt find this flaw it just stumbled upon me like all of the other ones. None of the numbers were accurate. WHere is the Troy Bell like point guard? I couldnt find it. My first game was against Brown. I became even more irate when Browns point guard could not miss. Every team you play there is always one player who hardly ever misses which is nuts. Also, the foul level is very high which has already been mentioned in other reviews. The stadiums and atmosphere .... And the players faces are just plain scary. It looks like im playing super nintendo not playstatoin 2. ....I wouldn't even rent this ....
