Basketball
Atari 2600 version
One of the first Basketball games. Is it good?
The Good
Playing with friend with two controllers is really enjoyable. I can find myself really well shocked that so old game can be so enjoyable. But the magic ends within 5-10 minutes, after this time became a great monotony so we changed game. But after hour we played again, and it was as funny as before, but only 5 minutes...
The Bad
Playing single player is horrible, after 2 minutes you can throw your joystick out of the window, enemy is doing always one terrific trick, and that's all you can only run to him but it's very hard to get ball from him, always the same trick and always the same result, you are losing. The graphics ale so simple that they can't be simpler, 3 year child is making better drawings. The music isn't a lot better, just a piece of "dings" and "dongs", canĺt even say this is sound of a ball.
The Bottom Line
This game is a fine piece of multiplayer game for Atari 2600, you woudn't find in it anything other, just simple fun from 10 minute play with friend. The real fun begins with one corrupted controller and two players...
