help needed. trying to find old bball game name

by **tearl** on Sat Jan 22, 2005 2:24 pm

i need help desperatly. when i was young i used to have a basketball compter game. i am sure the game was around the the late 80s to the earliest 90s. i think the name of the game had a " champonship" in it and the cover had a laker and cletics player jumping up for the ball like the start of the game.

the game had only 14 teams in it
5 eastern( bulls,celtics,detroit,knicks and one other
western (lakers,utah,sonics, phoenix( not certain) and 1 more
and the allstar western and eastern all star teams

it had all the superstars of the game,jordan, majic,bird,thomas,

u could only play playoffs or a just a match, and there was only one view but it would change ends as the teams went to their certain ends of the court to score

you could do all the players certian mover like
jordan=air jordan, 360 slam dunk
abdul jabbar= sky hook

it was only a 2d game
and is could run on dos

but i really would appreciate it if someone knew the name of the game so i can purchase it or download it again if possible.

You can't purchse it. I looked for that game about 6 months ago and I found it on the web for free since the publishing company for it went bankrupt, the game is now public domain. If you want Lakers Vs Celtics game (for PC), just post your email here and I will send it to you. Size is less than 500K if I recall correctly and the game was released in 1984.

Done for both.

My first tought was "Ah memories of my youth! I was so crazy over this game!"

One hour later.

My tought was "that game suck! I'm going back to NBA LIVE!" :lol:

Enjoy!

Do u still remember Jordan vs Bird ?

Thats a fuckin old game hehe

U even could compete in a slam dunk contest including ( like the title says ) just jordan and bird (T)dough ( dont know but dough is the stuff u make cookies with, right ? )

But at my time that game was kinda nice u could choose a dunk by clickin a picture where the dunk is displayed.

Was just 1 on 1 tough or dough ( tough means hard to beat right )

I am an illiterate :-)
