This is my favorite game that I have on PSN besides Fat Princess and NASCAR DoT Edition.

On the bottom line it says "a lack of depth will keep many from getting full enjoyment out of this title." Then under value it says "this game will always provide entertainment to basketball fans". Make up your mind does it lack depth or will it always provide entertainment.

It's not a sim, it doesn't that. Maybe a custom tournament for online/offline play. That would be fun.

Could care less about the NBA, and have never bought a "realistic" NBA title, but I love NBA Jam OFE. It's fun, it's got that "easy to be competent, tough to master" factor, and it fits well into a gaming schedule... can always rip off a quick game or two when you don't have time for something more time-consuming (coughSkyrimcough).

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

read the review and saw nothing close to "several notable flaws mentioned" in fact there was only one teammate AI, and even that got a positive comment. Now the defintion for an 8/8.5 game sounds exaclty how the review for NBA Jam went.

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

So, it didn't dawn on me that Road Trip actually had a platinum tier difficulty AI to play against with every team. I was wondering why I was only at 50% completion when I had finished beating all the teams on the silver tier, until I unlocked platinum for a division after earning gold against all of them.

This game just has an incredible amount of longevity. I'm just breaching said gold tier, and I'm nearly at 20 hours played with this title!

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

I just bought it yesterday and I'm loving it. I'm from the old school and have always loved NBA JAM. Here's a game I recorded last night. There's no media thread for NBA JAM so I figured I would post it here. This is the 360 version.

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

does anybody know whether there is going to be a roster update for nba jam of anytime in the future?

[TDenverFan]

Just downloaded this and it is fantastic. Deserves way more than a 7, I give it a solid 9,.

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

I for one have never been into NBA JAMS. I played it before in my younger days but really was not into it. I was more into the SIM nba games. But play the demo and went ahead and bought it.
I'm having a blast with it.

I think its because it just fun laid back game. i don't have to worry about it being a real Sim nba game. Like NBa2k we always finding something wrong with it etc. You know what your getting in this game and you just go with it

On fun factor i give this game a 9

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

This game is great with friends, but I don't know that I'd use the words "fun" or "laid back" to describe the typical online experience.

Found this on the official JAM forums:

Re: NBA Jam: On Fire Edition Review (360)

This week I went back and have been playing NBA Hangtime (N64) and NBA Showtime (Dreamcast).

For some reason, those older games just have more fun factor than the new Jam. I think it's the simplicity and presentation that make them more fun. Also, getting to make a 7'6" horse called "Merlin" is fairly amusing.

Can't go wrong with the Hangtime halftime rap or the NBA on NBC music:
