Japan sucks. Well for the most part anyhow. I don't say this from experience mind you, I only say this because their culture baffles the hell out of me. Their movies are odd to me, I seriously still don't get anime or manga, and don't even get me started on the subjects of hentai, visual kei, Evangelion, and Shenmue. Weird.

There was something that seemed charming about Biozone when I first looked at the few screenshots that were available for it.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
That seems to be the mantra behind the upcoming NBA Jam reboot. With an incredible selection of teams, crazy good old school action, and insanely slick controls for the Wii, this game is going to be a slam dunk. I managed to get my grimy little paws on this bad boy, and I am happy to say, that this is a reboot that has fared a much better treatment than some of it's colleagues. It brought a certain indescribable joy to my heart to see giant headed NBA stars ...
