Just wondering if anyone else has this?

Bought it as an impulse buy on Saturday and find it to be quite addictive!

The gameplay is really good and allows you to do so many different things! Some of the finishes I've pulled off leave me inspired to try more and more things :p

What are your thoughts? Anyone fancy a game? :)

My mate got it as part of a bundle deal, it's okat, pretty much what I expected, fast, fun but limited.
The graphics are quite nice apart from a couple of court textures looking a little too low-res, which is a shame as NBA Homecourt is one of the most stunning looking games in all areas I've ever seen, so I was expecting Street3 to follow suit.

The only thing making me want to play more is getting my hands on Cantona and Baresi, I'd have liked more legends, but at least they have some crackers in there.
 
Nowhere near as good as NBA Street Homecourt which is dissapointing. It just doesn't seem to be as polished and slick.

Plus no breakdancing music when you hit gamebreaker = lose.
 
I think it is really good playing MP on the same console, but I have found online to be the most infuriating game ever!

If it isn't people juggling the ball from one side of the pitch to the other (not helped by the extremely ropey tackling system), it is the game queueing commands so when I do get the ball he lamps it away to no-one straight away.


I've also found that it to be quite glitchy in regards to some times randomly giving goals or not giving goals. The graphics of the game don't bother me it's not great but it's not terrbile either.

If you buy it with the intention of playing it with a few mates and some beers it would be great, online just made me want to throw the controller out the window and destroy the disc.
 
Oh it is a very infuriating game, some of the challenges in the solo game just make you want to set fire to your 360.
 
I found the single player challenges on medium quite easy, some just seem to take ages to do (most was a case of run down wing cross and knock it in). I can't stress enough how I wish they put in a decent tackling system. I'm starting to get used to it but it can still be hit or miss if and is proper annoying when you tackle them for them to just pick up the ball again 'cos your bloke refuses to move!

Aye that happens a lot :( The tackle with the X button seems completely pointless and it seems I just run along behind the player with the ball ramming A until something happens :p

The queued commands you mentioned before is also pretty annoying but you soon get used to that.
 
X is the only tackle button I use. I can't tackle with the other one at all. My method is to get my player running ahead of them and to tackle thin air. If i've guessed the path right the player normally runs in to me as the animation is finishing so I can pick the ball up.

Thankfully I got everything I wanted from the game (points wise hehe) so I never need to play it again until I have some mates round.
 
i found this really hard to get into - played the demo a few times and played te 360 version over the weekend at my mates house
i guess i just couldnt get to grips with it
 
I see you have Street Fever, wanna hook me up? :p

haha yeh, if you add me GT: BenSayers I will give you the fever when I get home. Won't be till 6ish.

OT: but when trying to work out what I needed to do to get StreetFever I came across this, the best explanation for a Achievement ever!

STREET FEVER (45)
-----------------
Description: Complete an Xbox LIVE match against another player who
has Street Fever with the lead FS3 profile

This is one of those annoying viral achievements that are becoming
increasingly popular over recent months. Someone from EA has this
achievement, and if you happen to play with him/ her, you earn the
achievement. You can then give it to someone else by playing with
others. It's a bit like having unprotected sex while being HIV
positive.

Made me laugh anyway...
 
I have it, its fun but half way through the street challenge is too repetitive, they could have added the feature out of fifa 08 say score with a certain player, its just boring having to keep doing kick ups to get 5 gamebreaker goals

Not tried it online.
 
Woo! Im on a right GamerScore binge at the minute.

Hopefully play you tonight Ben then I can infect others if needed.
