I alternate years for sports titles and this year was basketball's turn. Sega's got a great one in their ESPN game this year. The 24/7 play is excellent and the games and challenges, while not as off beat as those in Virtua Tennis, reminded me of such. In addition, the franchise mode has been expanded on very well.
I thought I was going to regret picking up the game this year as I haven't really cared about any of the NBA players in ages. The 24/7 was a nice change of pace for this series and, in addition, provides a very well paced 5 on 5 to boot.
Now if they can just save my setting for turning that shit they call music off instead of having to do it every time I turn it on, it'd be perfect.
Pretty solid game
