How it feels
Playing NBA THE RUN feels like an over-the-top, high-flying street basketball arcade match where style and highlight-reel plays matter as much as winning.

What players say
Players say the arcade gameplay is fun with friends but the game launched without offline modes or local co-op. The AI teammates are so bad they break the main squad mode, and the pushing mechanic draws complaints. Many expected a spiritual successor to NBA Street and were disappointed to get a shallow online-only NBA Jam.
