NBA Jam (Sega Mega Drive / Genesis review)

Developer: Iguana Entertainment
Publisher: Arena Entertainment
Released: 1994

NBA Jam is a sports game that was first released in the Arcade in 1993.

+ Extravagant gameplay is highly addictive due to its fast-paced approach and control scheme that's easy to master.

+ Outlandish dunks provide showstopping moments, and the lack of fouls makes for some hysterical multiplayer combat.

+ Includes an enormous range of official NBA players and their sprites are beautifully crafted for impressive likenesses.

+ Turbo function is versatile for both offense and defense, and the metre always refills quickly to keep the action tense.

+ Iconic voice samples from Tim Kitzrow take the game's personality to the next level and interject pure excitement.

+ Half-time stats detail lots of information about each player, which can be useful for making second half adjustments.

- No true Season or Playoff mode means there's no real consequence to losing apart from your overall win-loss record.
