In Shot Blocker multiplayer, you compete head-to-head against the other player on the same court to block the same shots. There are WiFi multi-play modes for standard three-on-three pickup games, as well as multiplayer modes for both Shot Blocker and Arcade Shootout. Multiplayer modes consist of two-player network play via the PSP's built-in wireless network, and Party Play where players take turns on the same PSP competing for the highest score in the mini-games. Bonus points are awarded for making two or three baskets with the same ball. To mix things up, some of the baskets move back and forth, making them even harder to hit. Each level is different, with multiple baskets arranged in different patters, and each with a different bonus or point value. If you meet the required number of baskets for a level, you will advance to the next level. If you do well enough, you continue on to a new level.Īrcade Shootout is much like an arcade basketball machine, where you need to sink as many baskets as possible before time runs out. Occasionally there is a "money ball" thrown, giving additional points if you block it. The more shots you block in a row, the faster your points accumulate. Points for blocking are greatest close to the shooters, and lowest near the basket, but it takes longer to get into position for a block the further you are from the basket. Too many strikes in a row and it's game over. The goal of the Shot Blocker mini-game is essentially what the name suggests - you are a single player, facing a varying number of shooters, and it is your job to prevent their shots from hitting the net.
#NBA STREET SHOWDOWN FOR PSP FULL#
There are two mini-games included as short distractions for moments when there is not enough time for a full game, or just for fun. Winning the final match against the boss character allows the player owns that court, unlocks new courts, and gives the player the opportunity to take a member of the defeated team. Most courts are initially locked, and the player must compete in a tournament-style progression on each court to unlock others. The player first creates their own baller and team. The goal is to own and defend all of the courts in the game by defeating the boss character on each court and any challengers to your claim to the court. There are eleven courts, each owned by a boss character. The primary game mode is King of the Courts. Developed in parallel with NBA Street Vol. The NBA Street Showdown is fast-paced and the gameplay is simple to appeal to casual fans, while still deep enough to keep the. It can be seen that in addition to career mode and Baller, Showdown offers a few mini-games called Arcade Shootout and Shot Blocker.

NBA Street Showdown is the first version of the series for the PSP handheld system. As I see it, there are quite a lot of rewards unlocked in the NBA Street Showdown. NBA Street is a street-rules, three-on-three basketball series.
