10 Video Games With Utterly Ludicrous Premises You Won’t Believe They Released

10. Michael Jordan: Chaos In The Windy City

There's chaos you say? In the windy city? Should we call for the military? No sir, we need....Michael Jordan. Controlling world-famous basketballing legend Michael Jordan, players are tasked with saving the rest of his team who have been kidnapped by evil people for reasons unknown. Released for the SNES in 1994, Michael Jordan's Windy adventure screams cash-in from every possible crevice (including the hidden ones). As you'd expect, the gameplay is as naff as its premise says it should be. Jordan uses his epic basketballing skills throughout the game in a variety of ways to freeze enemies, blow them up and can even use a slam dunk move as an attack. In your time in the Windy City you'll be fighting mutants, rescuing your fellow players and collecting keys because of reasons. No, I don't know what they are.
