This game is one of the many that just completely rip off "NBA JAM". It just doesn't have any power-ups or crazy dunks. It's 2 on 2, only one half of the court, street ball.
Your aim is to win enough money to take on a guy that looks a lot like Wesley Snipes character from the movie White Men Cant Jump. You start off with $300 and play someone else for there $300, you play them mostly as the first person to reach 21 points.. there are some other options to play it as the winner is the first to do 3 dunks, first to shoot from a spot and a few that where annoying or easily forgetfull.
Only 3 players to play with, 2 guys and a girl. The way you shoot is you have to work out where the heck to release the button depending on your distance from the hoop, which is nothing but annoying. To dunk, you have to run to the hoop and shoot close enough and you take off, be nice if it ended then, but once you jump for a dunk, it goes to a new screen with you flying in the air and you have to hit shoot again at the right moment to slam it in which is more luck then actually working out the patterns to when to push the damn buttons.
After a while you can work out how to do it, but it's not really any fun when you just keep missing the shots and the computer just grabs it and slams it in right away.
Each time you move on to the next person it's a different game, the first round is just beat them, the second has some kind of spot to shoot from, but you don't have to, i never got past the second guy and didn't bother to play it after that.
I did find some passwords for the game that just take you to the last level to play this so called all mighty Judge character who has a striking resemblance to Wesley Snipes character in White Men Cant Jump. He's not hard to beat, and the end of the game is pathetic, showing your player dancing on the court as the credits roll. For a game that hard and frustrating, you deserve better to see that for all your wasted effort.
Overall, play it on an emulator if you're curious about this game, but don't bother buying it, even for 1 cent you will feel ripped off.
