NBA Ballers: Rebound - Making the Right Moves

Posted on Dec 8, 2008 03:52:50 PM

The NBA Ballers: Rebound is the latest edition to the enormously popular NBA Ballers series, and carries forward the legacy with a lot of success. NBA Ballers: Rebound is actually is a one-on-one basketball game, and a really compelling one at that, and retains many of the popular modes and gameplay that were a part of the original version. Basketball is really a game that is full of fast maneuvers and requires quick reflexes on the part of the gamer. The success story called NBA thrives on the fact that it provides you an ideal way of discovering the game on the PSP like never before, with imaginative gameplay features and sensitive controls.

The graphics of the game are one of its major highlights and appear to be in sync with the action in display. The player models, in particular, deserves special mention as they keep you engaged with their animated behavior and moves. They will perform various nerve wrecking deeds like making some complex dribbling moves or shoring high into the air to make a stunning dunk. The moves look all the more realistic and fascinating because of a properly designed frame rate that nicely blends all the various facets including the animations together. Another intriguing aspect is that the players are not unknown entities in the sense that you get to know each one of them from close quarters, and the emotions they display to express different situations are a visual delight.

Sound effects invariably play a very important role in the success or failure of a game, and the manufacturers of the NBA Ballers: Rebound have taken special care to ensure you an audio-treat as well. It provides you a good staple of spirited play-by-play from MC Supernatural and typical NBA Jam-like sound effects that reinforces the spirit of the game.

The game as can be presumed is primarily a one-on-one affair, and includes a one-on-one-on-one mode as well. Nevertheless, the main thrust appears to be on a one-on-one mode as can be comprehended by the TV Tournament and Rags to Riches section. You enact the role of an NBA star during the TV Tournament and are pitted against other all-stars and legendary players in a tiered tournament to unlock more players, as well as points that you can use to buy other goodies such as cribs and gear.

It lets you see clearly what the ball handler is doing, but it will make it hard to find out the positions of all the five players of your team. From the game handling viewpoint, NBA Live 2008 (PSP) is highly responsive and it is very easy to dribble, handle the ball, pass and shoot using the D-pad and four buttons. That means you will simultaneously have total control over the player’s moves, as well as the ball’s speed and intensity. The basketball also looks like a real one with its glossy finish. To further enhance the look and feel of the game, the crowds and spectators have been made especially realistic too. They will cheer you, shout with you, and do a lot of other acts in order to express themselves. Overall, NBA 08 is a 100 percent fun-filled and exciting experience.
