Synopsis

Synopsis
Few things are quite as impressive as watching an athlete twirl, duck, weave and sprint across the court, all the while keeping what appears to be effortless control of the ball as he does. It's an enviable skill, and one that is guaranteed to up your game if mastered. NBA Baller Beats uses the beat of the music to inspire and condition your body to move with fierce control. Learn signature NBA moves and the skill you need for ball-handling that will blow your friends' minds and turn you into a true Baller.

Pick up the included, official NBA game ball replica from Spalding, and let the beat of one of the 30 licensed hip-hop, rock or old-school tracks stimulate your muscles into picking up some major skills. Good for all skill levels — Rookie, Pro or Baller — this game helps you learn moves like crossovers, pump-fakes and flow-dribbles in real time, with a real ball for real benefit. Check out the extensive in-game tutorial where two-time NBA champion Kenny Smith shares his methods for greatness. Whether you're in single-player mode brushing up on the basics, Move School mode fine-tuning your dribbling moves, or multiplayer mode showing up your friends, you'll actually be elevating your ball-handling and having the fun of playing a video game while you're at it.

NBA Baller Beats - Xbox 360 (10 out of 11)
Good starting point for basketball beginners

Posted by: from CA on 04/27/2013Please don't expect to be LeBron James, Michael Jordan, or even Charles Barkley after you've completed everything in this game. But you might just able to show off that cross dribble and take your friends to B-Ball school. Maybe. Audio gets 2 stars for not including Slam Jam by the Quad City DJs. Seriously. If you can't slam with the best, then jam with the rest.

Great ball handling lessons
5
Posted by: from Lopatcong, NJ on 04/20/2013My son found this game to have many great qualities. It was a combination of Guitar Hero and Basketball. He had the opportunity to play and practice his ball handling skills at the same time as listening to a wide variety of music geared to the dribbling.

Great Value for Families
5
Posted by: from on 04/17/2013This game is great, and the fact that it includes a very nice full-size Spalding basketball is just the icing on the cake. This game will keep you and your family members entertained on a rainy day like no other. It's a lot of fun to play, but you're also making your basketball skills better at the same time, which is invaluable. We love it!

Real basketball moves
5
Posted by: from Clovis, Fresno on 01/29/2013This game is intended for a 9 year old. This game comes with a real basketball. He loves basketball, practices bball after school almost everyday. Need a board over the carpet. Good ball bouncing practice, keeps your eyes off the ball and on the TV screen. Especially good on rainy days. My 15-year old tried and also fell in love with the game. I bought the game on-line and pick it up at the store, saved $$$.

Great game to develop ball handling skills
5
Posted by: from Indianapolis, IN on 01/26/2013We bought this for our high school son to work on his ball handling skills. He loves the game. It has progressively more challenging skill development, is fast paced, and he can easily bounce it on our carpet ( which is not Berber but a regular nap carpet with padding). He was already a good player, but the game quickly has improved his skills. If a player uses this regularly for even 15 mins each time, they can't help but improve.

Awesome game
5
Posted by: from on 01/07/2013This is the single most Biggest fail of a game ever created. People say it is created to teach people the techniques of basketball but even mentally challenged people outsmart this game. Just a heads up to everyone looking to buy it, you should save your money its 40 bucks worth of garbage and is a disgrace to the xbox360 series. Thank u and enjoy your afternoon
