White Men Can't Jump (video game)
White Men Can't Jump is a video game released for the Atari Jaguar in 1995 by High Voltage Software, loosely based on the 1992 20th Century Fox movie of the same name. As in the movie, players play games of two-on-two street basketball. It was bundled with the Team Tap Adaptor, which allowed three or four players to play in tandem despite the game box saying "1 or 2 players". Due to its poor graphics, among other factors, it has been hailed as one of the worst games of all time by some critics.
Gameplay
In Vs. Mode up to four players can take part in individual two-on-two street basketball games, with remaining players controlled by AI.
Tournament Mode can be played with 1 player or 2 players (on the same team). Players start out with $500 and bet money on each game. Once players earn $5,000 they are entered into The City Slam Tournament. If the player fails to earn $5,000 over 30 games, or loses all money, the Tournament Mode ends.
Players can pass, fake a pass, jump, shoot, dunk, and punch (try to knock down an opponent). Players can "Speed Boost" by using extra energy. The more energy a player has, the more likely they are to pull off a Super Dunk at a distance from the basket. Each character can pull off a variety of "Super Dunks". Players can also switch between both characters on their team when using an AI teammate.
