Retro fridays and nba showtime

NBA Showtime is widely considered the 3D true sequel to nba jam(yes I know there was an nba jam 3D) so it has a lot of similarities

If you never played an nba jam game, it's 2 on 2 basketball with exaggerated physics and gameplay. You can easily soar about the backboard and fouls are harsher. There is no fouling out so onnce you get 5 fouls the computer shoots a freethrow that is worth 3 points.

Showtime has the nba on nbc license and the iconic theme song. The gameplay is the most addicting part especially with cheats such as no goaltending and unlimited turbo. Those codes have stayed with me for a decade.

The best part is the create a character which you also get points for stats for your wins. I have a maxed out 7'11 270 lbs grey horse that is a beast. You can use horse heads or mascot heads for your character.

I got this game in 2001(or 2002) at toys r us and I still play it a lot because of how addicting it is
