Do you remember the glory days of 16-bit gaming? I certainly do and I often pine for simpler times when games were about the fun factor rather than epic movies where you get the chance to occasionally play as the main character, or at least one of the minor roles….anyway back to the point. When I was given this game to review I checked out the synopsis before I downloaded it. Fantastic (I thought) a game that brings retro to the present day, wow what wondrous things could happen?
I downloaded the game and smiled as it started up, after all nobody could mess up a retro style basketball game could they? Arrrgh, they could, they could and they did it in spades. Nothing about this game is right, it’s like a copy of NBA Jam with all the fun taken out of it. Nothing about this game works for me, and apparently the Xbox LIVE community aren’t too happy with it either, the game has been given a general rating of 2 stars. Personally I think that’s far too generous.
