Hit the Ice
NBA Jam: On IceGenre: sports - hockey
Publisher: Taito
Year: 1993
System: Genesis
Gameplay Score: 0
Gameplay Notes:
2v2 arcade hockey. In principle this sounds great but the performance is horrible. Embarrassingly bad framerate. This is nearly unplayable. Thankfully you can adjust the game speed, something unavailable in the SNES version. It's still very slow. I like the two button controls, but there's no depth. AI is incredibly stupid. Your teammate is always an AI so it's basically 2v1. Impossible to score.
Level Design Score: 1
Level Design Notes:
It's an arcade game so yeah, just exhibition.
Theme Score: 3
Theme Notes:
I love the idea of NBA Jam on ice.
Art Style Score: 1
Art Style Notes:
Huge sprites and clear graphics but oh the framerate and animation are horrible. Horrible I tell you! Graphics are less colorful than the SNES version with far less detail as well.
Audio Score: 1
Audio Notes:
Really bad. The circus music on the title screen sets the stage perfectly.
Overall Score: 12
