Wicked. The NBA Live series thrives
again. Unbeliebable new dunks, better players, better stadium and crowd.
Different modes. And legends. Very, VERY wicked game.
GAMEPLAY
Awesome. Many different game modes such as Practice. Choose a player, and go on a street court. Franchise. Own the team, follow the salaries, be the owner as well as the features in a season. (You play, too) Legends like Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Julius Erving, etc. can be unlocked. M.J. makes MASSIVE dunks, as seen in a screenshot below. In the game, plan everything. Your defense positions, your offense plans, etc. Put your face in the game as well. As for game-wise, the fun never ends. Half-time show, fatigue, it all keeps you on your toes. And there is nothing better than slamming in Alonzo Mourning's face.

GRAPHICS
Realistic crowd, realistic players and uniforms, totally realistic stadium. It all will keep you playing for hours and hours on end. Even the ball looks real. Banners all over the stadium and even on the highly detailed backboard. The court surface, the outdoor court wih buildings around and cars going by. People sitting watching. I'd give it a 6 CD-ROM's but the highest rating is 5 CD-ROM's.

AUDIO
Even the menu music in this is good. "Barcharkarararar All I Know..." It's Cool! The ball bouncing has a rhythm. And then there's the actual audio. The sound of a slam dunk reminds you of M.J. It just does. Sneakers squeaking across the floor. The crowd chanting. It just gives you that exstatic atmosphere you get at WWF WrestleMania. Only it comes from a round, thin piece of plastic and a screen.
