NBA STREET VOL. 2
The slick, broadcast-perfect NBA Live hits consoles in October, but the basketball game that delivers the most fun is EA's second installment of its NBA Street series. You work your way up through the blacktop courts of America's best streetball cities, recruiting NBA players for three-on-three match-ups that emphasize style as much as substance and encourage you to bounce passes off your opponent's head en route to slamming outrageous anti-gravity dunks.
