FreeStyle is one of those games you can play for a quick 10-15 minutes and not feel that you have to commit 8 hours a day to be good. Playing with people you know will also makes the game infinitely more enjoyable. There are three starting positions you can play, to put it in mmorpg terms, each position is basically a “class”. The positions are Center, Forward and Guard. Centers are strong at 2 point shots and rebounds, but are extremely slow and poor at making 3 point shots. Guards are quick and proficient at 3 point shots but are weak at getting rebounds and 2 point shots. Forwards are basically decent at everything.
The game offers three ways to play, One-on-One, Two-on-Two, and Three-on-Three. If you’ve played a lot of online games and want to try something different, FreeStyle is definitely worth a download. The only real problem with the game is that earning money for clothing (that gives bonus attributes, which effect shooting, passing, etc.) takes too long. Each game only yields 100 or so “points”, which is the currency in Freestyle. To make matters worse, people who pay real money can purchase game items that make their characters better than yours in every way possible. Don’t let this discourage you though, the game does take a lot of skill, and even if someone has double your level you can still win if you’re a better player.

This game is sick! The graphics of the game aren’t that great, but the game play is amazing! It involved a lot of teamwork if you’re trying to play online team vs team, and it also involves a lot of finger work if you’re trying to go all the way to the net.
This game is fantastic and I would rate it 5/5 for its game play. If you are a basketball fan, or even any kind of a sports fan, you should definitely give this game a go!
