so does anyone wanna share any strategies or anything? So far I'm 6-2 in my GB season. I swear, the arcade stick makes all the difference.

Dave, I think one thing I had forgotten about was the fact that goal-tending (though giving up points) does not prevent you from the streak that leads to being on fire. So actually you bring up a good point.

I'd actually been playing this recently (as in the past few days) without even realizing it was this month's Together Retro. Whaddya know?

Goatending is also never called when you are on fire, it becomes "legal."

Now that other affairs in my life have been wrapped up, I'll be giving this game a dribble tonight.

I always push straight off the other teams inbound, try for a steal, then go for 3 straight dunks.

Then goal tend like a mofo when on fire.
