It's a shame because their games were some of THE BEST!!! and they did numbers. NFL blitz, cruisn usa, Arctic thunder, Slugfest... you can't find any sports games where you can beat the crap out of eachother anymore.
NBA Ballers was Midway's version of EA's NBA Street, and the gameplay is NBA Jam in the form of streetball. As for Create a Baller mode, the customization was so deep, it was possible to recreate even characters from either other video games or even real life celebrities! Most of the time, I'd create Stretch from the NBA Street series(well, at least a near perfect version of him), and have him battling it out with the game's original characters!
this was probably the 2nd best streetball game of It's era.. better than and 1 streetball, street vol 3, etc.....I think nba street vol 2 was the best for that time.... also, this game had a great soundtrack
@@EyadishoKahawaki I put Nintendo GameCube & Sega Dreamcast consoles in this list because there are not many good games for these game consoles, but you know ''Cheat Code Central'' is reporting newly released update games for these systems right now.
Played this for hours and hours back in the day. Back in the PS2 era I never thought I would be playing this on my phone but I am. PS2 emulation on Android has come a long way.
Oh man I played this so much on the psp. The graphics were absolutely amazing for the time. I wish they would make a game like this for the switch. It would be the prefect basketball game.
This was THE Best Basketball Game Ever. 2K Simulation Games are nothing compared to this. The Combo and Style points going into a Pot that both you and your opponent generate points into, and whomever scores gets the Pot of Points is the greatest idea ever for a Sports game that requires Agility, Timing and Finesse. Those dudes that love to Cheese in 2K would eat this game up. We need to Petition to get this game remade into like an HD Remix with Update-able Rosters, and DLC.
I remember my 8th birthday my mom said to choose any game I want to go with my new ps2 the b-8tch azz nikka in gamestop aint let me get GTA san andreas so we ended up getting this game .. fun times
Kobe was one of the best players rest in peace
Peace...
Peace.
Yuo
Yuo

Dawg this game was iconic
Bro this shit dam near brought a tear to my eye
Sware they need to remaster this and nba street vol 2 nfl street

They should of kept making this bro, this game was timeless fr
I miss midway, companies who made all the fun games has now went bankrupt 🙁🙁 which is why there isn't a lot of games to play In 2020
