Blockbuster World Video Game Championships.  1993-1994.  


Was that NBA Jam and Judge Dredd on Genesis?

NBA Jam and Sonic.  There was a third game at the local level and I can't remember what it was.

I got a perfect score on Sonic at the store level, which I think was double what the next best player had.  Went on to the next level at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto and won that.  Then went to Florida.  I did very well through several rounds but was eventually eliminated with a buzzer beater shot in NBA Jam.  The guy who eliminated me won the whole thing.


Crazy!!!  NBA Jam is such a badass game.  Have you played On Fire edition?  If you have it, we should jam.  What was the grand prize of the tourney?

The grand prize was some amount of cash and getting your face in the Jungle Strike game.  For some reason, we all put more value on getting ourselves into Jungle Strike, even though I got a free trip out of it.  Funny, I don't remember the exact $ amount of the grand prize but I still remember the final match so vividly - I was playing as Seattle because their ability to hit 3s was incredible.  My opponent was playing as the Knicks who were in hindsight a better team to use against a human opponent.

I thought the servers were down for NBA Jam on Fire edition?

They shut down the servers for the 2010 NBA Jam remake (f'in terrible game) .  The 2011 PSN released ( far better, fixed AI, $35 cheaper) NBA JAM on FIRE edition servers should still be up as far as I know.
