Review: NBA Live has great graphics and has so many possiblities. You can do anything with it. You can take on Michele Jordan or any other player one on one. You can trade players and adjust players. You can make your own player or your own team. It is far better than 99 and i can't wait for 2001 to come out.

Summary: NBA Live 2000
Review: The NBA Live series has been the gaming world's brightest ever since it caught some air way back on the Super NES. The transition to the PC was superb starting with NBA Live 95 and has become increasingly better with each year. Live 2K is no exception. From the introduction until the final year of your tenure as general manager of any of the 29 NBA teams, Live never fails to dish out the goods. Returning features from Live 99 are Exhibition, Season, 3-Point Shootout, Practice and Career modes. This season, Live 2K goes over the top with five teams consisting of the greatest players from each of the NBA's 5 decades of existance. For example, the 1980's All-Stars boasts the names of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, just to name two. The options don't end there. You can pick from any of the 300+ players and decade all-stars and pit them up against the king of "Air" himself, Michael Jordan, in a one-on-one streetball game. Personally, I found the decade teams and MJ 1-on-1 fun at first, but it has lost its luster and is dull at best now. As for the Career Mode, it is far improved over last year's edition and is easily the most fun to be had. After selecting your team, you pick the length of season, select from the real NBA divisional set-up or you can customize it the way you like, and whether or not you want to hold a fantasy draft. The most interesting part as GM is managing player salaries. Yes, that's right, salaries. Each player has his own salary ranging from the league minimum of $30,000 to the maximum of $300,000 (Kobe Bryant-like numbers), from a single-year deal to a seven-year contract. At the end of the player's contract, he becomes a free agent and will demand a salary that may be a great deal for you or an astornomical amount, or he may refuse to sign with your team all together. Some players may even demand a salary amount while accepting only a certain amount of years toward their contract. This feature makes NBA Live that much closer to real life. I had seasons where I didn't play any games, but just signed, re-signed and traded players. Another great feature of the Career mode is the Rookie Draft at the conclusion of the NBA Playoffs. Just like the real NBA, the teams that didn't make the playoffs are put into a lottery; the teams with the worst of the worst records have a better shot at the #1 pick. Each rookie has a scouting report listing their strenghts and weaknesses and just like the NBA, it's likely to be a gamble as to what player you choose because none of the rookies have initial ratings during the draft. Off the court options are all fun and dandy, but a truly great basketball game makes the cut on the hardwood itself. And NBA Live 2000 shines bright from basket to basket. The graphics are stunning. Each player has a greatly accurate cyber-face. Iverson and Sprewell have there dreads while Shaq and Garnett have their bald heads. After a monster jam, the camera may zoom to the player and catch him pumping his fists with high adrenaline. The courts are spectacularly emulated and there's even an on-cout ref that makes the calls. Like every other game, there are a few minor niggles that I must mention. When drafting players during a fantasy draft, it would have been a good idea to post the players contracts somewhere accesible, this way when it's neck and neck between two players, you know which player has the more lucrative deal. The game also may become to easy for seasoned veterans after awhile. The sound of the crowd and play-by-play is weak as it has been in all previous Live games. Even with the few flaws, the incredible graphics, great managerial options and funky soundtrack make NBA Live 2000 the most enjoyable Live ever and the best B-Ball game on the market. PROS: Amazing graphics, nigh-perfect GM mode, pluthera of gaming options. CONS: Sound effects and play-by-play. OVERALL: 94%

Summary: Upgrade over 99
Review: This basketball game is fun, enjoyable, and more realistic than 99. In the 2000 version of NBA Live, there won't the 40+ steals a game like you had in 99. Players also don't fly through their opponants on their way to dunking the ball from 10 feet out like in 99. The defense is very tight! Almost too tight. I can be hard to get by someone even if you are controling a much faster player, without doing several jukes and using the turbo button. The only draw backs are the repeated close up animation that the computer puts you through everytime there is a foul shot, sub or slam dunk. You can press escape to skip it. Another draw back is that they didn't add much variety in the way a player shoots. They have dozens of different dunks, but players shoot pretty much the same way even if they are right next to the hoop. The only variety is the layup the dunk, and the fade aways which are almost impossible to make.

Summary: updated review!
Review: this is an update.. still having loads of fun with this game--and I've just started the franchise mode which is very cool. I would highly recommend picking up a "gravis gamepad pro" for this game. it features four buttons on the front and two L (left) and two R (right) buttons at the top. This controller is desigined just like the controller for the sony playstation, which is very important. I've found that its a *necessity* to have the two L and R buttons because of all of the moves that require a combination of buttons in this game.. such as direct dunking, direct passing, elbow faking, turbo, etc... its rather hard to do all of this with the microsoft sidewinder controller which I owned previously.
