1990 Dro Soft (Spain)

A game relying on looks rather than gameplay. Graphically it's accurate and very similar to the original, but it's painfully annoying to play. Definitely no worthy carrying Magic Johnson's name.

These same guys also done The Light Corridor which was an excellent game so I was surprised to see the low marks on here and on WoS, but I get why now. The presentation is pretty nice and the music is excellent but the gameplay here is pretty bad, especially when you considered that there were basketball games out there that looked bad and weren't very good but yet played better than this game. This is slow and jerky, passing is a nightmare, stealing appears to be random and 3-point shots are sometimes counted as 2. Don't quite get the team names either, Chicago Mane and Los Angeles Hairless, no comment. I really wanted to disagree with the low scores for this, but I can't and I can only join in. It's pretty justified.
