Summary

Game Description

At the PSP's opening tip-off, the NBA will check in as the first major sports game. NBA 2005 is a basketball simulation from Sony's own internal development team, 989 Sports. The game packs in all the NBA regular league teams as well as teams from the developmental league, and it showcases all the superstars with spot-on visuals and seamless animation. Exhibition, Full Season, and Play Off modes replicate the challenge of real NBA action, and the Season mode also enables you to build up your favorite teams through trades and free-agent signing. But gamers can also take on a series of mini-games to hone their court skills, including Paint Mode for all-around shooting and the 3-point Challenge. Additionally, the 989 Sports Skills Challenge sets up an All-Star-style competition. Online mode enables two players to go head to head via a wireless connection. However, the real showstopper might be the ability to create your own virtual Upper Deck trading card by taking snapshots of players in action.

This game was pretty good when it first came out, i got it with my PSP and i really enjoyed playing it for the most part. One major drawback was the controls, it was hard to time the shots and it was hard to set up the plays. This game was alright for a launch game but there are better NBA titles out there now, but if you are low on funds i would suggest this game!

Average game for somebody who wants to play basketball. Kinda reminds me of 2k and live together. It has challenges kinda like allstar weekend you can try to have fun with.
