There is no "NBA Jam" without Midway. When they lost the license, the franchise lost it's soul. You'd have to go play Hangtime, Showtime, and Hoopz if you want that TRUE NBA Jam spirit, cuz this ain't it.
They didn't l lose the license midway, they jus stopped making it. Then they went bankrupt cuz the only thing that was doing numbers was mortal kombat and that's why WB picked that up along wit other titles
@SwuadeTV yes they did lose it. Acclaim stole it from them. Midway didn't stop making "NBA Jam" games. Legally they could not use the name anymore. That's why they made NBA Hangtime instead, while Acclaim made the horrible NBA JAM Extreme without them.
@@travisbrown416I’ll be 36 in four months and I wholeheartedly agree! However, I do admit that I kinda like this NBA Jam. Way more importantly, Happy Birthday
Great video Ricky. This is my favorite NBA Jam to play. Just got it back recently. If you need any tips on this game, get at me. Quick tips: you need turbo+shoot to do a super dunk. The Turbo is the red bar underneath your player. 2) The bigger the dunks the more jam points you earn especially with double or triple alley-oops and fills up your jam meter. 3) The more attributes you do also fills up your jam meter (i.e. points run, blocks, steals, and dunks) and 4) if you decide to create a player, the equipment you can buy add attributes to your player (shooting, steals, speed, blocks, rebounding, strength, etc)
@@theSmoothOne bro thanks for the tips, I've been playing it getting better. I definitely will hit you when I need more tips. I will be posting more gameplay soon
I VIVIDLY remember playing this back in 2003 as a 3rd grader. Bro I been wanting to play this again for at least 20 years now. I’m tryna figure out how yall do this shit where yall can access old games 😂😂😂 but mane this is a Top 3 NBA JAM in MY opinion. Wait till you do the Old School mode and the camera color is in Black and white when you playing with the legends. That shit wild. This was a 🔥🔥🔥 game bro 4real
PC, emulators. my PC from 2012 can play ps5 games (that are also on PC, idk if ps5 is emulated but the others before it are) or if you own an xbox one you can emulate console on it in retroarch i think it's called
The reason you aren’t dunking the way you wanna dunk- is cause your out of turbo- when u crossover it drains the meter under ya character- so basically you need to utilize the turbo in a correct manner
i have the ps2 emulator on my android tablet. an i downloaded this game. an i loved it. if you get a hotspot by the 3 point line you can dunk from that hotspot
After the split between Acclaim and Midway, I stuck with Midway as they had the superior games with Hangtime, Showtime & Hoopz. The only game I played from Acclaim was College Slam, the rest were awful and clunky.
PS2 jam was so trash, my classmate way back gave me the game. Me and my sis played it, 10 min later we dug needles into the disc and watch traffic run it over. (True ass story too) That being said, NBA HANGTIME is the king if not Showtime. Any other jam game too if we being honest.
Midway produced some of the most cheatin games in gaming history truly on the A.I side 😂😂😂 I’m in the finals for Super Nintendo. I Almost blew every lead because of the aggressiveness and abuse at the end of every quarter in every sports game Midway released 😂😂😂. I Got the lakers Kobe Horrace G and Shaq goin crazy tho. Every single game I’m double or triple in injuries because the A.I be scrapin my guys who don’t have the ball. I forgot about this one bout to download it right now good looks💪🏾🏆🐍
