A port of Run and Gun
NBA Give 'n Go is a port of the arcade version basketball game. The game is different from usual basketball games of the era because it is played in a vertical view. Most basketball games previously had a side scrolling or isometric view. Building upon this technique, the game features large player sprites and graphics. The game features the NBA roster from 1995 complete with player ratings. Gameplay consists of true 5 on 5 basketball but in a more arcade like style with alley-oops and high flying dunks. The audio includes action oriented commentary, in the style of NBA Jam.

I had a blast playing this one. While it may not be NBA Jam Tournament Edition this is still a very good game and a solid alternative if you are looking for something else in terms of the SNES Basketball games. Be warned this game takes a bit to get used to in terms of switching between players and getting them to do what you want. Not anything awful but it might prove to be a bit frustrating from the get go. That said, there's a lot to love here with lots of different modes and the game cuts a brisk pace. Can't recommend it enough.
