Re: OFFICIAL NBA JAM IMPRESSIONS THREAD

So far I really like the game. Graphics are good, controls are solid but there seems to be no one online. Unless the servers aren't fully functional yet.

Re: OFFICIAL NBA JAM IMPRESSIONS THREAD

Went home real quick to get a game in and install to the HD.

All I have to say is, THIS GAME IS ON FIRE!!!

I played a quick game with the Lake show and TWolves. I had and big smile on my face the entire game. 4, 3 min quaters with real time running. I ended up winning 54-52. I got on fire twice with Kobe, ended up with 34, 8 boards, 7 steals, 8 assts and 4 blocks.

You can change up your starters at the end of the half.

One thing to note; We've been spoiled with being able to change you player at will. You'll have to get re-programmed out of that as you only control 1 player, just like the original game.

I know a lot of people are asking themselves if this game is worth $49.99. Being a huge NBA Jam and of bball, this is so worth it. If you're on the fence I don't have anything to sway your opinion. Go rent it or something in you can't decided.

I looked at it this way. I love the NFL. Would I pay $49.99 for a HD, NFL Tecmo Bowl or Super TB with all the same modes and more? YES! Yes, I would. That's just my .02

I'm glad to hear it, Jerz. I can't wait to get this. Sucks that Amazon's dragging their feet a bit, but I should have it on Thursday.

Re: OFFICIAL NBA JAM IMPRESSIONS THREAD

I know this is impressions but I would like to ask a question?

Does it have all the same modes that were in the wii version?

Re: OFFICIAL NBA JAM IMPRESSIONS THREAD

I dont know if I plan on getting this day one (ie tomorrow). I might wait until the NFL season is done and then swap Madden in for Jam. But this game is on my radar and I actually grew up playing the old jam in the arcades (and later on with the genesis). I don't think you can really appreciate NBA Jam unless you grew up in the era when it was one of the biggest/most popular games.

I played this game out on my SNES, played it to death, I know I will be picking this up soon.

If it's anything like the old one I'm super sold.

Anytime.

It's like the arcade version from years ago, I felt like I was at the arcade again. The only thing that was missing was the smoke filled room and pizza grease running down my hands.

PS3 vs 360: Is there any difference that anyone knows of?

Re: OFFICIAL NBA JAM IMPRESSIONS THREAD

This game is exactly what I hoped it would be. If you are an older game like me and played this back in the day, you really can't stop smiling the whole time. I have noticed it's harder to shove people than the old game, and it's also harder to dunk. Which are both good things in my book.
