    Unlike the Wii version, the fully functional online component means you (almost) always have access to some stiff human competition over Xbox Live. And it definitely looks much sharper.

    NBA Jam has been lovingly recreated by a team that clearly understood the appeal of the original. Get together with friends for this one.

    Nearly 17 years after I fed my first quarter into an NBA Jam Arcade machine, my love for the franchise is still just as strong, even if this version does not love me back as much.

    This game brought back a lot of childhood memories. It is by far the best NBA Jam so far. The developers struck gold with new new modes and amazing graphics.… Expand

    Boomshakalaka. Whoever played Nba JAM or Hangtime will enjoy new design which is just breath taking. Everything is full of colours, great dynamics and a game worth of having. Yeah its bit pricey concerning the fact it could easily be in ARCADE department, but i am not sorry. Great game 9/10.… Expand

    I had some good fun with this game, especially when playing co-op. It got kinda old tho, despite various modes and online play. Tons of secret characters like Bill Clinton and Bush and Obama helped to keep my interest, but once I found out EA had no plans to update the rosters, and since you cant edit them yourself, I sold the game.… Expand

    If you want to feel like you're being cheated by the computer 50% of the time, and also have your teammate just make it seem like 2vs1 for the other 50% of the time get this game. This game is a load of CRAP. The computer cheats it's way back into games and makes sure your teammate plays absolutely 0 frigging defense. If you want a **** game that cheats you, go ahead and pick up this turd. If you want nostalgia, get an old sega and play the original. This one does not do the JAMs of old justice.… Expand
