One on One is a basketball simulation developed by Eric Hammond and published by Electronic Arts in 1983 for the Apple II and Atari 8-bit. One year later, it was ported to Commodore 64, where it became a huge success: the best-selling game of Electronic Arts and the second best-selling game for the Commodore computer.
The game is also known as Dr. J and Larry Bird Go One on One.
The incredibly realistic animations of the basketball players, which could perform several moves in defense or attack, were entirely new for the time. The scene where Larry, or Dr. J, smashes the glass on the backboard and the janitor cleans up the mess is still in the memories of many gamers.
GamesNostalgia offers the Amiga version, released in 1985, with better graphics but the same gameplay as the C64 version.
