PS2 Review: Backyard Baseball 2007
Operation Sports, 3/26/07--8 out of 10 Stars.
The team behind Backyard Basketball 2007 knows who their market is. This is a really good game
for not only kids, but for adult gamers who want to share gaming with their children. My daughter
and I loved this game for the experience. It’s not about the AI, the graphics, or the animations.
It’s what gaming should be about --fun. And when it’s family fun, well, that’s a huge bonus.
GameDaily, 12/06—(GBA version)
No matter how you look at it, Backyard Basketball promises a slam dunk of fun!
CommonSense Media—4 out of 5 Stars.
Parent’s Choice Foundation, Spring 07—(GBA version).
This is all full-court fun—-even on the tiny Gameboy Advance screen.
GameFreaks 2/07—6.5 stars.
An entertaining primer for people new to basketball games, whether young or old.

USA Today, 3/22/07--8 out of 10 Stars.
For young kids who like hoops, Backyard Basketball is an excellent choice. It's
just plain fun to play with pint-size versions of the pros, on more than 10 different
courts, with real NBA team logos and uniforms, three levels of difficulty and with or
without a friend. You can even unlock new players and bonus items, including making
players' heads getting bigger. Don't be surprised if this game turns your mild-mannered
kid into a boards-crashing hoopster.
