FreeStyle Street Basketball 2: First Look

Freestyle 2 by JCE and published by GameKiss and Joycity just got released 2 months ago and I have been playing a lot of it lately. Lets take a look.

First things first, I am a little disappointed on the character creation. Instead of full character customization they had pre-made characters that you could pick for each position. You can customize it through clothes later on in the game but it would have been great if they just kept the old character creation from Freestyle 1, where you could customize everything from height to facial features.

Oh, and you don't start off as Guard or Forward in this game like you did in the previous one. Instead you will pick your permanent position and you will advance in rank. I believe the ranks are Rookie, Major, Pro and Star. In that order. Oh and you can customize your stats every level up as you can see.

Game modes are pretty much the same you can play 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3 Half-Court but the good things is, you can now have AIs on your team. You + 2AIs vs Opponent +2AIs. Each AI has a certain way of playing and different skills which you can see above. Sharon and Neil have been working well for me as a SG.

A few games later I get my first game winning buzzer beater! Was a hard game and I jumped out of my chair after making that three!
