And now I'm sad I don't have NBA Jam

BOOMSHACKALACKA!

I had Jam Tournament Edition on my old Windows 95 computer back in the day. I even bought a game pad (a Gravis gamepad with 4 whole buttons! ) just to play it.

the thing I miss that I can't even find evidence for the existence of anymore is that it came with one of those branded operating system packs that lots of games had which had wallpapers, alternate icon sets, sound libraries, and OS component skins so that you could change up the standard Windows look. But the capstone was that it had custom screensavers that would play automated 3-point contests, dunk contests, or full 5v5 games with the logos of the various teams. So I would sit down at the computer and turn the monitor on to find that it was in the 3rd quarter of a game between 5 Lakers logos and 5 Mavericks logos with the Lakers up 75-69 and I would then sit and watch the rest of the game play out before I touched the mouse to actually do whatever I needed to

I've tried looking around the internet but I can't find anyone even talking about that ever having been a thing. But I know I'm not crazy and it did exist. I might have to go look in the filing cabinet of old computer stuff my parents have had since the 80s. I think I have all the old CDs for my games growing up in there.

Should see if I can dig out the cloth map I got with Everquest too.


Also I loved finding out a few years ago that the Jam producers were petty Pistons fans and coded the game so that if it's close in the dying seconds of a Detroit vs Chicago game, the game will torpedo the Bulls' shooting ability so that they'll shoot nothing but bricks.

Hat trick for Celebrini. Sharks lose 3-5. Celebrini has been playing at elite level. But you still need to score goals. Hopefully he'll put up more goals than Bedard(22) and Berniers(24).

Sharks 3 (Celebrini, Liljegren, Zetterlund)
Blues 1

Lights Out NBA? That one had logos playing each other.

I don't remember what it was called. I just remember it being an optional install on the Jam TE CD. Next chance I get I'm going to see if I can find my disc.

NHL Hitz was superior

Yup, the TE edition included the Lights Out screensaver:

 

[Celly4Celebrini]

have the Sharks winning this one

Sharks 4-1: Celly, Smith, Toffoli, Zetterlund. Kyrou for the blues

Wow. That's just, wow.

 

[Chinaski89]

Sharks 3 - Tofolli, Zetts, Celly
St. Louis Elbows 1 - Kyrou

I should go with my usual 4-2 Sharks loss but I have an irrational hatred for the headshotting ElBlows and I want them to lose every game that crap team plays.

 

[YUPPY 2 7 10 11]

1-0 Sharks win , Askarov scores his 1st goalie's goal and Jordan Binnington has a melt down.

 

[Barrie22]

1-0 Sharks win , Askarov scores his 1st goalie's goal and Jordan Binnington has a melt down.

Goalie goal with binnington in the net, no weird bounces, no own team touching it first. Just straight ino the net through his five hole.

Is granlund even playing?

[tahoesharksfan]

I hope Asky's intro doesn't become another "oh shit, I didn't realize I was going to have to play behind this D-Line" games....

SJS 3/1
Zett/Goodrow/Toff
Saad

 

[bluefunnel]

SNOG:

4-2 Sharks.

Celebrini, Kunin, Eklund and Granlund.

Parayko and Kyrou.

 

[timorous me]

I want better for Askarov but I don't like the Sharks' odds with the back-to-back with travel, so...

Blues 3 (Neighbours, Buchnevich, Holloway)
Sharks 1 (Eklund)

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Hey Sharks peeps! Blues guy swinging by to ask about Walman.

Is he experiencing weight/conditioning issues?

I'm a Sharks fan now with all of the new blood and Grier at the helm. When those retention slots open, I'll start to feel even better about your future. Those slots will open right around when the Sharks will begin their ascension. Good timing.

Heading into the season, I figured that your team would give up fewer goals because of a stronger bottom-six and good goaltending. So far, your GA rate is lower than last season.

Best of luck tonight!!

 

[Alaskanice]

Go Sharks!!
For the first time, Go Askarov!!
