Jordan vs Bird, called Jordan vs Bird: One on One (ジョーダン VS バード ONE on ONE) in Japan, is a 1992 one-on-one basketball game developed by Michael Abbot for Electronic Arts. Originally released for the Commodore 64 in 1988 (as a sequel to 1983 game, of Dr. J and Larry Bird Go One on One) it was ported to the the Sega Mega Drive in 1992.
Gameplay
Of all the ports which exist of Jordan vs Bird, the Mega Drive version is the most technically advanced, although the gameplay is much the same. Only Michael Jordan and Larry Bird are playable characters and the two are always seen on-screen in front of a single basketball net. The objective of the game is to score more hoops than the opposing player.
