NBA Street V3 isn't as realistic as it's NBA 2K7 counterpart, but it's much more fun. In V3 you are able to fully customize every aspect of the game. You can create a team and pick up additional players along the way. You can customize your home court with your own personal name, logo, colors, bleachers, and paint job. You can create unique players and improve their skills as you win games. If you are simply interested in playing some no hassle 3 on 3 basketball you can do that too without all the set up. In V3 the players are able to perform different tricks during the game. As soon as a team builds up enough points from the tricks they can perform a "gamebreaker" which is like a super slam dunk worth three or four points. Because of this aspect, a big theme to the game is doing tricks while playing to build up to gamebreakers which will make or break your games. While the overall game isn't perfect it is a whole lot of fun. NBA Street V3 is a great game for all ages.Read full review
NBA Street V3 looks great and is fun to play with it's insane dunks and crazy moves. It's Dunk Contest is an added treat as well as being able to hit the court with three of our favorite Nintendo Stars (Mario, Luigi, and Peach). But, all in all, it's an exact replica of NBA Street 2, and I would even say the V2's menu was a lot easier to move in and the trick tutorials (which they don't have in V3) where very helpful. Also, the fact that Micheal Jordan does not make a appearance in V3 is disappointing (Me being the M.J. fan). All in all though it is a good game and I would recommend that if you would like a change from V1 or V2 you should buy this. Just don't expect anything too different.
I played this as a kid, and loved it. I thought it may have only been a nostalgia effect, but it's still amazing to this day.

It's been almost two years since the last iteration of the NBA Street franchise, Volume 2. While still a great game overall, NBA Street Vol. 2 wasn't quite the revelation its predecessor was. But now, with the release of NBA Street V3, it's clear that the developers at EA Sports Big clearly haven't been loafing in the off-season. The addition of online play (on the PS2 and Xbox) and a compelling single-player career mode, as well as improvements to the basic game mechanics, make NBA Street V3 the new gold standard of arcade-style basketball games.
What I liked about the game was that it had Mario All Stars on it and my son was looking for a nintendo Mario Basketball game. It didn't come with a instruction booklet so it was hard to figure out how to pick the characters. I decided to purchase it because it was very inexpensive. Overall it is a pretty good game and I would recommend this for any young person who is a mario fan.
