NBA Jam 2001

NBA Jam 2001 is a sports Game Boy Color game made by Acclaim Entertainment as licensed basketball simulation for the 2001-2002 NBA season. It was the follow-up to NBA Jam 2000. It featured Karl Malone, Jason Williams, Reggie Miller, Jason Kidd, Latrell Sprewell, and Scottie Pippen on the cover.
==Why It's No Jam==
#The music in this game is horrendous and is basically watered-down to fit the Game Boy Color.
#*The main menu music is even worse, especially by Game Boy Color standards.
#The password feature is unnecessary, because in future NBA Jam games, it has an autosave feature, or even gives you the option to save.
#The voice acting for the commentators sounds like robots, especially by the way that they are talking.
#Playing the Season Game mode is nearly impossible because as mentioned on WIS#2, the password feature is required to play, meaning that this game is nearly unplayable if you don't know what letters or numbers to put in.
#*The same thing applies to Playoffs mode, meaning those 2 choices are inaccessible unless you have the password memorized, which this game doesn't even bother to give to you.
#Practice mode is very boring, as it is possible to get a basket easily.
#*Meaning while you play the two modes that were mentioned above, it is still possible to either win or lose (if you can master the awkward controls).
#The graphics at best are very bland and look like somebody copied and pasted the players' pictures onto Microsoft Paint.
#The controls are very stiff and makes it impossible to even score a basket on the Head-to-Head mode.
==The Only Redeeming Quality==
#This game does offer you the option of having you play with a friend, if you and your friend have the exact same game.
==Reception==
The game received "unfavorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.
