Let's face it: Michael Jordan in Flight isn't a great game - gameplay is bit boring, player control hard and it contains only average graphics. This game became known because of two things: named after Michael Jordan and was one of the first sports games in 1992, which brought 3rd person perspective with 3D graphics and cut scenes with Michael himself. As I have already indicated, gameplay and player controls are not exactly the best and you might get as frustrated as I was when I was making screenshots for the BOG. Once you manage player control and eventually get used to it, you might actually started to like this game and have fun. The best features of the game are probably multiple camera angles and the ability to create your own highlight films with "Video-Edit Lab" feature. Other than the novelty and star power, the game has very little else to offer. Fun for a while if you're a Jordan fan or want to see how (awful) digitized video would look in a basketball game. If you really want to play a good basketball game, better stick to EA's earlier classic game - Lakers vs. Celtics.
