Humongous today announced that Backyard Basketball 2007 is now available at retail outlets nationwide for the PlayStation 2 and Windows PC. Backyard Basketball 2007 combines fun and fantasy with realistic NBA plays and strategies that are appropriate for kids. The game includes all NBA teams, uniforms, and logos as well as a roster of animated kid versions of current NBA stars including the Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade, Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James and Backyard Basketball 2007 cover athlete and five-time NBA All-Star Paul Pierce of the Boston Celtics.
“Being on the cover of Backyard Basketball 2007 is an important highlight in my career. I spend a lot of time working with kids, so I know how popular and fun the game is and how it can help kids better understand the rules and strategies of basketball,” says Pierce. “I really like that Backyard Basketball 2007 is based on solid game play like the most sophisticated adult games, but is designed for kids, so it’s funny and simple enough to jump in and play right away.”
