NBA Live 2003
Overall: I was one of the few people that enjoyed Nba Live 2003. So i was obviosly gonna buy the 2003 version. I was not dissapointed, the new freestyle is good, but i don't use it much, it really give you too much of an edge over your opponent, and its just more fun playing a passing / shooting game.
Gameplay: Gameplay is simple, pass, shoot, steal, and then there is the freestyle feature, it takes a little time to learn, but after a while it gets old and stupid. To use the freestyle you push move the right joystick and the trigger. Pushing things like up will make your player point the ball up, making a circle with the joystick will make your player turn around, these moves are fun to do, but get old, i prefer playing more realistically, but i will still use the freestyle. There are lots of dunks, and other moves too. Players actually have realistic rankings, last year you would have 90's Michael Jordan a 93, everyone else good in the game like Iverson would be 88, Shaq was 89. This year 90's jordan is 99, Shaq was 99. The francise is still kinda weak, not a big improvement over last year, it plays about exsactly the same and is presented the same.
Graphics: Live 2003 is an improvement over last years, this year the players are more detailed, and move much more realistically. Dunks, layups are actually beliveable this year. Courts lighting affects arent anything to brag about, overall its a nicely polished PS2 Game.
Audio: The sound in this game is more apealing than last year, you had pretty crappy music in last years menu and in game, this year you have "MTV RAPPERS", so i guess its ok even if you dont like rap. sound affects in this game sound pretty decent
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
