The XBLA and PSN downloadable only game NBA Unrivaled is now available for for the 360 and should be out for the PS3 tomorrow. Tecmo is going for the feel of a throwback arcade game in the mold of Tecmo NBA Basketball or NBA Jam with this offering. The game features the full NBA license including the teams, rosters, and statistics. NBA Unrivaled costs 1200 MS points or the equivalent $15 on PSN and comes in at a compact 177.25 MB.

As with all downloadable titles there is a free trial that can be played and it is (highly in this situation) recommended to do so before purchasing. Continue on for the official trailer. I will have a gameplay video and some quick impressions up later today.

Yea, "dude", you gotta lay off that EA bias especially since this looks like it moves JUST like Tecmo's basketball games in the 80s. This game does look like garbage, that's for sure, though. Outdated! Japanese devs seem to stay STUCK in the past.

Wow. That video reminds me of the Tecmo NES games. I'm surprised they didn't put more into the animations. Very hard cuts / movements there.

if it really was a remake of the old Techmo game with player likeness and no weird nba jam like thing going on i would cop it.
The thing is if you liked techmo you didn't want to mess hit with nba jam. 2 different things.

What a joke. I can't believe this Tecmo made game the studio which bought us so many quality titles like Ninja Gaiden, Rygar, and Tecmo Bowl. How is the world did they green light this.

guys take it easy………this is a remake of the old techmo bball game, which was a frontrunner of sim basketball and a real great game for its time. i still play it with the 1992 and 1993 rosters sometimes. it doesnt have many moves, but it has a nice simple feel to it………BUT THIS version is the mix version with NBA JAM, which is not a good thing.

Most of you guys don;t know the old techmo game so you guys are pissed as hell. Don't be, cause old cats like myself remember the techmo game and it's not that horrible what they tried here. it just failed.
