    You guys think you have complaints about this game? Go to Costco and get your hands on this steaming pile of dog poo. I’ve never seen a bigger rubber band effect in my life in any game. So rigged and a complete pile of shat. 0/10

    Was a solid game back on the old consoles. Idk if it’s because it’s an “arcade” replica that it plays like it’s designed to suck quarters? But my god 🤮🤮🤮🤮 the game is clearly designed to keep the AI in it. Not that I don’t like missing the go ahead layup three times in the final seconds, I do, but make it a little more obvious. Go up by 6-7? Well you can bet your missing the next 3-4 trips down while the AI rattles off 13 in a row. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

    Funny story, the creator of NBA Jam was a big Pistons fan and actually coded it into the game where if the Bulls take a last second shot to win against the Pistons it will always miss.

    There has been videos and articles about this. The catch up AI is an intended mechanic. Arcades were made to make money, so if the lead got too big on either side, the algorithm would come into play. If people couldn’t keep up, no one would play, if the AI could be dominated the game would be seen as too easy.

    I used to love that game. I played it in the arcade, long time ago and it was like that back then. Console didn't have that same catch up that it did in the arcade but that game was such a blast to play.

    You bought it? How much?

    Don’t let me get a game on your new machine with Dikembe and LaPhonso…

    Was gifted it a few months back. Could be fun without the scripted rubber band effect.

    If you live in Portland, they have a physical NBA jam machine at Ball Was Life on Hawthorne Blvd if you want the real experience.

    Do you know you are answering posts old enough that the person probably has forgotten they asked the question by now?
