    I've played all the versions of NBA Jam TE except the PSX version and I'll put in another vote on the 32X version as well. As horrible as the 32X is in general its versions of NBA Jam TE and MK2 are tops.

    The 32X version of Mortal Kombat 2 is totally shitty. I mean, Mortal Kombat is totally shitty in general, but even with that taken into consideration, the 32X version is bad. It doesn't look as good as the SNES version even and the AI is barely better than Mortal Combat 56 Peoples on the Famicom or something.

    There's a number of good games on the 32X, but Mortal Kombat 2 isn't one of them.

    I'm so glad I found this thread.

    I am very very very proud to say that my original genesis died while playing a marathon session (5+hours) of NBA Jam TE. The kid next door bet me $20 that he could beat me with a final score of 150 points. Dude, at 14 years old, it's like he slapped my mother by saying that.

    We played. I remember the final game. It was 134 to 134. He was better than me but over 5 hours, I got good. We'd only stopped for grabbing mountain dew from the fridge and for no other reasons. It was overtime. Seattle vs Chicago. Kemp vs Pippen. It was a clash of titans.

    Four seconds left, I was running Kemp down the court, full turbo, came up for the dunk from the sweet spot he had just milimeters outside of the foul line, when all of a sudden **BIIZZTTZZZTZ**. The screen blanked, and the genesis gave out a small puff of smoke from the AC adapter jack in the back. We'd fried my damn genesis. The acrid smell of burnt plastic and metal filled the living room but goddamn if that wasn't the most awesome way for it to die.

    I pretty much like any baskestball game that lets me play as Bill Clinton.
    Looking to buy any Criterion movies that I don't already have.

    That's a great epic story there. You should have expanded on it and posted in Lore!

    It's good to hear all of this great stuff about the 32X version. I just won a lot on ebay (32X and 7 games) and this is one of them. Never owned a 32X myself surprisingly, so this is going to be fun

    Really think it's enough of a base for a Lore post?

    Well I mostly go off memory for 32X titles since I haven't had mine hooked up in years (too messy). I always remember thinking the 32X version of MK2 was the best. I'll take your word for it though!

    AI is not a valid argument when it comes to Mortal Kombat though. Not that I've played them all but I can't think of an MK game where the "leg sweep of cpu doom" doesn't work. :P

    Jamma. But I have to agree the 32x version was great. SNES was ok.

    Almost too perfect to be true.

    To be honest, you may want to consider MAME. In my opinion, if you're trying to find a good version of an arcade, it rarely gets better than MAME. Maybe you don't want to do that, I don't know, it's an option though. It's where I've done all of my NBA Jamming over the last 4 years.

    32x has the best version

    Its just that many people dont know it because they never played it...

    BTW the 32x version was programmed, among others, by Steve Snake, the creator of the famous genesis emulator Kega

    I guess I'll be the lone dude to cast a vote for the PSX version. I still have it in its longboxed goodness and after the extreme disappointment I felt with all the 16-bit versions this one is by far my fave. Never played the 32x or Saturn versions so maybe I don't know what I'm missing out on.
