[QUOTE="Senor Herer, post: 33855, member: 1323"] Had to chuckle, although I'm also enough of a geek to understand why somebody would say that. However he's an idiot and wrong because as much as rubber banding is an affront to fair play and can be unbelievably aggravating when a CPU opponent is blatantly cheating you, I LOVE NBA Jam precisely [B]because[/B] it's a cheating m*****f***** as that fake competition is ultimately what keep us coming back to it time and time again ;) Long play time is just a perk of being good and/or lucky and improving at the game. Eighties games absolutely typify this, if you wanted your money to last more than half an hour at the arcade then you needed to get good, learn to exploit the games and extend your playtime on each credit. Same with pinball. Granted though, pinball games have become easier over the years, at least in terms of being more accessible and friendlier to novice players, so if you prefer shorter ball times then I guess you may be better sticking to the older pre-DMD games.
