Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
NBA Live 2001 was last year's best PS2 basketball game by default. Because of the game's lack of competition, players excused its poor presentation, long load times, sluggish controls, and poor artificial intelligence. Thankfully, EA Sports listened to all the negative feedback and NBA Live 2002 contains numerous improvements over its predecessor.
The graphics are the most notable enhancement. Players are far more detailed in this version, sporting the same afros, cornrows, tattoos, armbands, and headbands--among other details--as their real-life counterparts. Further adding to the accurate portrayals is a wider variety of player heights and builds. The game's engine is much smoother, allowing for more natural movement. As previously mentioned, the AI has been improved--players will no longer alternate between standing around helplessly and wandering around aimlessly. The load times that plagued last year's version are greatly shortened.
Zone defences are allowed in accordance with the new NBA rules. There are more than 50 new dunk and celebration animations. Franchise mode returns to the series, allowing players to control a team for up to 10 years. As general manager, gamers will have to trade and draft new players in a quest to win an NBA championship. NBA Live 2002 is a great improvement over NBA Live 2001.--Raymond M. Padilla

More addictive than caffine!,
By A Customer
This review is from: NBA Live 2002 (Video Game)
E.A should give themselves a pat on the back. This is brilliant. Play normal ball 5-on-5 with current N.B.A ballers, or 1-on-1 streetball rules (and why not throw in a few legends like Jordan, Magic and Bird while we're at it!) It is that good. The graphics are smooth,the arenas and the players look real,the attention to detail is somewhat remarkable. For N.B.A fans this is a must have. It also boasts over 50 new slams with the new jam,trey,and swat cams which are good fun. The controls are simple and effective and the soundtrack is cool... (A BARGAIN) Get it now!

Basketball as it should be,
This review is from: NBA Live 2002 (Video Game)
NBA 2002 has been vastly improved to its 2001 predecessor, there are many more dunks including 360 windmill dunks, vince carters trademark under the legs dunk and many more. There is more emotion in the game with players banging there chest and jumping around when a difficult basket is converted. I bought this game 6 weeks ago and i am still only half way through my season and still engrossed, it is a great game with a lot more added features and improved graphics. A must buy for the basketball fan, there will be no better game out this year.

This is the best basketball game ever created. It has everything the rest did plus loads more.The graphics are amazing with easy to use button combinations. If I could describe this game in one word it would be "Outstanding".
