Looney Tunes B-Ball

The Looney Tunes are back! This time, they're jammin' hoops in a wacky game with funny moves never before seen in basketball.

Slam Dunk

Looney Tunes B-Ball starts on the set of a cartoon, where Bugs and the crew have just finished another work day. A pick-up basketball game ensues, so get ready for some seriously funny antics, especially if you team up for four- player simultaneous action.

You choose from Bugs, Daffy, Taz, Sylvester, Wile E. Coyote, Elmer Fudd, Marvin the Martian, and Yosemite Sam for two-on-two basketball. In addition to standard shots and passes, the characters sport special offensive and defensive moves, such as passing a time bomb, that create as much merriment as mayhem.

The hoopsters handle well, and the special moves are easy to locate and use. It's sometimes hard to steal the ball, but otherwise the on-court action moves smoothly. The graphics are equally great, with large, easy-to-follow sprites and fluid passing, shooting, and running. The well-detailed studio background looks very realistic. The star of the show is the sound. Each Looney Tune character has its own special line, such as Daffy saying "You're despicable." The background music has a nice beat that enhances the game play.

That's All, Folks!

Looney Tunes B-Ball is great fun for any Looney Tunes or basketball fan. The wackiness and simple yet fun game play makes this game a winner.

Looney Tunes is a 13-level, simultaneous three-player, side-scrolling marathon that stars all your favorite Warner Bros, cartoon characters. Choose your racer from among the three main contestants -- Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig. No, Bugs doesn't have an unfair advantage because he's a rabbit. The characters only move as fast as your finger can push the single Run button. A Jump button is available for leaping over obstacles and for squashing other contestants as you scamper down the field.

Incredibly detailed, high quality animation grace this game. Each character looks and moves exactly like its celluloid counterpart. In addition to Bugs, Daffy, and Porky, you see a whole cavalcade of cartoon costars, including Road Runner, Wily Coyote, Yosemite Sam, and more. Every level takes place in a different scenario featuring these cartoony characters doing what they do best. As you're racing for the finish line, you might run into Sylvester in his eternal quest to catch Tweety Bird, or get "bumped" from behind by Elmer Fudd's bubble rifle as he tries to shoot Bugs Bunny. Not all levels are on land. Some take place in the water, while others take place on distant planets, which Marvin the Martian can attest to.

The three main contestants race against each other and the computer-controlled Taz-manian devil. As in all Warner Bros, cartoons, anything goes! Taz is notorious for mowing down opponents and cutting them off. The top two contestants continue to the next level with increasing obstacles and faster computer opponents. Losers must buy in again to continue. Looney Tunes is just as fun to play as it is to watch. Get in on the fun, today! Th-th-th-th-that's all, Folks!!
