The Ben Wallace Fan Page

BWA Blockers, peek preview

In case you were wondering, BWA DOES NOT stand for “Basketball Women Association”, it stands for “Ben Wallace Association”. Shame on you if you thought otherwise.

You know, sometimes I just wonder how can I be such a nice guy. I have this friend that I tolerate, even if he likes Kevin Garnett and he thinks he’s a baller (he’s more of a chump actually). So, this friend of mine who thinks he’s a baller, obviously likes that stupid “NBA Ballers” game for the XBox. Here’s the logo:

Let’s see what’s beyond the evident: the “ballers” text is written in a script font. Script fonts are for pussies. When was the last time you saw this type of text? I saw it last week on a flyer for a pussy reunion. If my girlfriend wrote me a letter in this font I’d choke her to death. It’s so delicate, cutesy and corny it wants to make me puke. That’s why I love the cover of this exclusive sneek preview: Ben Wallace’s Association BLOCKERS

As you can see, Wallace is jumping two meters over his opponents to block a shot four meters high, and he isn’t even making an effort. Look at the size of that triceps, its just amazing. I can’t get a good look at his traps, but they surely are as massive as mine are. The font is aggresive, if a baller sees a dvd package with this cover he’ll gently leave it where it was, carefully step backwards… one, two, three steps and then run like hell.

The mechanics of the game are be very simple: one block equeals two points and a rebond counts as a single point. Sure, there are ballers in the game, but only as cheerleaders. With some tricks you’re be able to pull out a flamethower and burn the cheerleaders. You’re also be able to play against predators (they are great blockers too). And Ben Wallace would is unbeatable (just as in real life), no matter what you do.

Rating>: 11 out of 10

Unfortunately, as the game is in beta, I’m not allowed to post screenshots, maybe sometime soon.
