Summary

Bulls vs. Blazers and the NBA Playoffs (known on the Mega Drive as NBA Playoffs: Bulls vs Blazers) captures the excitement of the 1992 postseason with all 16 playoff teams and both All‑Star squads. I love how the game lets you toggle between an arcade feel—no fouls, no fatigue—and a more realistic simulation, while still letting you set quarter lengths from two to twelve minutes. The signature "Marquee Shot" system adds a layer of strategy; pulling off Michael Jordan’s "Kiss the Rim" or Larry Bird’s "Turn Around Jumper" feels rewarding, especially when the right button timing lines up. The Genesis version even lets you build custom All‑Star lineups and call defensive plays, a neat upgrade over the SNES original. With three difficulty levels—Pre‑Season, Reg‑Season, and Showtime—the title offers a solid challenge for both casual duels and full‑court tournament runs, all while flashing the iconic EA Sports logo on the screen.
