The Xbox has its share of Basketball titles to choose from. So with all these choices it kind of hard to find that special b-ball title that is worth your hard earned cash. So since I?m the whitest as they come, for my money I want a basketball game that takes me away to a magical place, where I can soar through the air, make breath taking dunks and sink threes with surgical precisions. Sadly with Konami?s latest title NBA Starting Five I was slapped back to reality, where I was getting stuffed, the ball stolen from me, pretty much everything to remind me that I have no game. So if you?re like me, you might want to stay away from this title, but if you do have some skills go check it out at your local rental store.
The gameplay aspect is sort of there, Konami did try. The shooting techniques are done fair and your shot percentage is somewhat like the pros are capable of doing during a game. But sadly enough you may find yourself shooting more bricks than you care to do. Also, the games played against the computer A.I will most likely be low scoring games due to the fact of bumped up defense that the A.I magically gets.
To get past the defense you must turn the game into a slam-dunk contest. That little strategy helps your shooting percentage becoming a little high and makes you have high scoring games. Since the outside shots rarely touch the net and all you can pretty much do is dunk, the game becomes very tiresome way before ever becoming enjoyable. Lastly, after deciding you didn?t want to play the game and decide to go ahead and simulate the game, the A.I. for the simulations are way off. The worst teams in the NBA seem to nab all the wins, while all the great teams get knocked down to the bottom of the league. So in closing, if you have the time and patience, unlike me who doesn?t, you might be able to improve your skills and maybe find some good points to this game.
