Reception

My Street received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.^[4] GamePro said of the game, "While it's noble that someone has tried to give a party game a plot, the kiddie treatment here is both disturbing and annoying, and the games themselves aren't all that fun; the addition of PS2 online play does not redeem it. If My Street is your street, move."^[16][a]
