My brother and I grew up playing NBA Jam, way back when. I was excited to hear there was going to be a new release for the Xbox 360. I've the game for two night and I'm ready to send it back.
When I first put the disc in and played the first game, everything came back. This is awesome... just like the old game... amazing. But that nostalgia wore off really quick. The game becomes very repetitive, the extra game types aren't that much fun to play. To win all the divisions in classic campaign just seems more like a total chore, rather than enjoyment.
I've tried to play 15 or so online games. The only game I have ever completed was my first (a loss). EVERY time my team was winning, the other team would quit. And good luck trying to find a match, outside of classic 2v2.
Overall, I'm glad I rented rather than bought. Apparently my gaming opinions have changed since I was a kid.
