I'm no Samit Sarkar, but I can still recognize the serious lack of a downloadable, high-def NBA Jam. Hell, I'd be happy if they simply added online play and called it a day.
By now, most of you should have seen the NBA Unrivaledtrailer up there. Don't worry, it's not your computer acting up -- the animation really is that janky. Should you be blessed with the ability to stomach the visual tomfoolery, the game is 1200 MS Points and will be on PlayStation Network at some point.
Unsurprisingly, two more XBLA games are headlining this Wednesday as well. That would be Encelverment Experiment and 0D Beat Drop. When games are bunched together like this, it doesn't exactly instill me with confidence.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Ugh, what a disgrace to the legacy of NBA Jam. Just give me an XBLA version of the original NBA Jam (or Tournament Edition) with no-name players and fake teams. I guess that would be sorta alright as far as compromises go.

Not that it's a competition or anything.
Well, hopefully it turns out that it plays better than it moves for those who do buy it.
If any arcade sports needs an HD remix, it's NFL Blitz 2000. FACT.
Los255 is speaking my language. More NFL Blitz 2010 up in this beyatch.
