    Wow. Sounds like folks at digital entertainment news dont really know how to rank a game. a 48? what they dont realize is that this game never claimed to be a perfect simulation for basketball purists. It is supposed to be fun on a handheld, and thats exactly what it is. before, i played Live 08, and THAT was a terrible game. NBA 08 is a slick package that will keep you busy for the whole year!

  1. The artificial intelligence is a beast, scoring lots of points and reading offensive and defensive plays like a prodigal genius.

    Sony has managed to get the balance between mini-games and basketball right for a second year in a row, which is truly incredible.
  3. I just want to take the time to request that everyone take notice of Conquest mode. It’s really a shot in the arm for sports games and should really be present in every other title in the genre.
