Not to be confused with the 1994 video game also called Jammit
Jammit! is a basketball video game based on the film of the same name. It was released on November 22, 2005 for the Game Boy Advance, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 (for which it was released as a launch title). The game was developed by Eurocom and published by Vivendi Universal Games under the Sierra Entertainment label. The film's original cast provided a voice-over reprisal in the game.
Development originally began under writer-director Carl Andy Jr.'s Andyson Games (a joint venture with Microsoft) as an exclusive launch title for the then-upcomming Xbox 360, however due to floundering sales, Andy decided to close the company and sell his shares to Microsoft and laying off staff, from there the publishing rights would revert to Vivendi Universal Games where they would give the project to Eurocom and thus allow it to become multi-platform in addition to it's 360 release. An additional handheld version came out on the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS developed by Vicarious Visions.
Like the film it was based on, the game received mixed reviews upon release, many criticized it's repetitiveness and overreliance on juvinile humor, though the Xbox 360 version recieved praise for it's technical aspects and showcase of the console's hardware. The GBA and DS versions meanwhile recieved a more negative reception.
