OMGN: NBA Jam Review

One of the biggest crazes these days in the world of gaming has been the relaunching of classic, dormant franchises. While some of these reboots are older console games, several of them have been updates to arcade classics. Recently, EA, which has had a stranglehold on the sports genre, relaunched a franchise made famous by Midway; the over-the-top 2-on-2 arcade classic, NBA Jam. Unfortunately, this reboot falls a bit short to what EA and fans of the original were hoping for.
