EA has announced that they will be releasing a NEW NBA Jam this winter to follow up last years release. The best part I heard so far about this is that the game will be a downloadable. I felt that the one released back in November should have been a downloadable. While I liked the reboot of the famed francise, it shouldn;t have been on disc.
While it seems that EA Sports as pretty much given up on their NBA simulation title NBA Elite, a few features we would normally see in the simulation version have been put into this.
NBA JAM: On Fire Edition contains new gameplay features including:
- REAL AI: Featuring the ground-breaking AI system used in the Fight Night franchise that learns your tendencies and throws them back in your face.
- JAM Arena– Play solo, or team up with friends and take on the world in a new, dynamic online competition.
- Road Trip – A cooperative online campaign where you can team up with friends and compete in a series of white-knuckle challenges against the current superstars and timeless legends from each of the 30 NBA Teams.
- Tag Mode and Team Fire return! – Swap players “on the fly” and ignite your entire team by performing consecutive cooperative moves!
- More NBA JAM Hotness – Online roster updates, more NBA superstars, legendary NBA players, over-the-top animations, JAM challenges, secret teams and unlockable characters than ever before!
We will keep you posted as more news on this title develops.
