First Time Playing | Jordan vs. Bird: One on One (Sega Genesis)

🎬 Video Type: First Time Playing 🎮 Game: Jordan vs. Bird: One on One 🕹️ Platform: Sega Genesis 🤖 Mode: Single player game 💭 Thoughts: Here's an odd game that I don't understand how EA messed up on. Their sports titles, including their NBA basketball games, have an amazing track record. But for this game, it's like they felt that they needed to do more with it. Like take this slam dunk contest. The devs decided to go all Track and Field on us and made it so you have to tap the jump button at a certain time and location, then you hit the other buttons to pull off the dunk. I guess the devs felt like there should be more to it than in Lakers vs. Celtics where you just hit the shoot button and if you're close enough to the basket, you either will dunk or do a layup. The three point shooting contest is another example of how they overly complicated it. You hit the A button to grab the ball, B button to jump, then the C button to shoot it. Why does it have to be so complicated? Even the close comparison to this game, NBA All-Star Challenge by Acclaim, that one has a three point contest as well and you just shoot using one button. #jordanvsbird #segagenesis #segagenesisclassics #segamegadrive Subscribe for more retro sports games and classic game content!
