Summary: EA has gone backwards with 2001
Review: This game is chock full of bugs. EA has done a terrible injustice with this game. It seemed like they werent ready to release this, but did anyway. There are no coaches in the game, which isnt a big deal. They did however forget to put Ref's in the game! The 2000 version had them, but for some reason they decided not to put it in. All in all. This is a major dissapointment waiting 3-4 extra months for a game which is priced extremely high for what you get. You would be better off playing the 2000 version and just wait for the 2002 to come out. Maybe they will get that one right.

Summary: good game, way too easy
Review: this is a really great game, but, just like every NBA Live game ever made, it's way too easy, which makes it get boring much quicker.

Summary: Buyer Beware!
Review: This version is chock full of bugs from the get go. Unless you have all of your cpu's drivers updated. You wont be able to play it. It will either not work at all or it will keep crashing after playing the 1st period. There are also no ref's unlike last years version, which is kind of baffling. I would wait til this game drops in price and wait for EA to come out with a BIG patch. I've returned my copy already. Overall. After waiting an extra 3-4 months of release. This one is a real dissapointment...

Summary: Stick with NBA Live 2000
Review: This year's version of NBA Live is in my opinion the second worse release of the series. NBA Live '96 being the worse. The graphics are better than 2000 but that's about it. Gameplay is horrible. It is way too difficult to hit a shot on Superstar difficulty. You're lucky if you can shoot 20% in a game - very unrealistic. The 3-team trade option isn't much of an big advancement either in single player game.No wonder the release date was pushed to almost 3 months later than originally schedule. They should have taken another month or two. I am very disappointed. Save your money and stick with the 2000 version.

Summary: I'm baffled (Win2K user)...
Review: To give you some background, I've bought every NBA Live game for the PC since EA made the first one. It's the only game franchise I can't help buying. I have really liked the previous games, despite their flaws. So, like a lemming, I went and bought NBA Live 2001. I got it home, installed it OK, then attempted to run it. It showed the splash screen for about 15 seconds then crashed with a general exception error. I checked the support, and to my surprise I see that Windows 2000 is not supported. Hmmm, how many pieces of software are there out there that don't run under Win2K? NBA Live 2001 is one. So, it went back to the shop and I've given up on the series. Strangely enough NBA Live 2000 runs fine under Win2K (except for the GUI button's text, which were all scrambled). I might install Live 2K one day again for a blast, but I'm not going to bother with any more technically flawed products from EA.
