Product Description

Product Description
Going back even to when Michael was still in Chicago and Magic had returned to the boards, EA Sports' NBA Live series has been regularly getting the fast break and refining the game of basketball for the PlayStation (and other platforms). NBA Live 2001 starts this season with an enhanced atmosphere--new animated bench sequences, reactions, interactions and celebrations--with all of the pro teams and arenas, including a new outdoor court. For your listening pleasure, this year's model features improved sound effects and commentary by the likes of Bob Elliott. NBA Live 2001's rewards system will unlock bonuses like new hairstyles, shoes and player features to reward outstanding play. And if you are missing the styles of retired stars, you can still play many of the game's greatest legends in one-on-one or five-on-five game.

Manufacturer's Description
Year after year, EA Sports brings new features to the mix while finely honing those that are already established. NBA Live 2001 is no different. While there isn't much left to add to the Live series at this point, somehow EA has managed to bump up the realism even further. NBA Live 2001 is the best playing b-ball sim on any system.NBA Live 2001 truly comes into its own in one area especially: control. It's really hard to find one single move innate to the NBA game that isn't included. You can get your feet wet with just the shoot, pass, turbo and jump commands, but after a few hours you'll be looking for more control, and Live 2001 delivers. Spinning, crossing over your dribble, faking and calling for picks are all at your fingertips, just waiting to be used. You may even post up and choose from four separate moves to go hard to the rack or use icon passing to hit your man at the back door. On defense, you can face up on your man and challenge him to drive to the hoop, call for a double team, or swat the ball away with either the steal or jump commands.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best realism yet, 11 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This is the most realistic sim anyone has yet come up with. Having 4 difficulty levels is ideal, although in the end I mastered all but the hardest level, which is just too damn hard! THe post moves are great, control is easy, and the challenges add some variety and excitement. I've enjoyed this game more than any other basketball game and I've played most of them. Noticeably better than Live 2000 - well worth getting, especially now its cheap.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dunking as usual, 14 Dec 2000
By Mark P Woods (Britball.com) - See all my reviews
"Experience the NBA.. Live!" boasts EA's latest edition of its long-time basketball monster game. That the series, updated annually, seems to have been around for ever only makes you peek extra closer for new additions each time.

But some things never change. Like any EA release, the game-play is superb. Once you've figured out all the controls and then remember that they change around when you go from offense to defense, it's simple to operate.

There is a selection of high-flying dunks, celebrations and trademark shows but never do they detract from the basics of the game which give it the authentic feel. Several different levels mean than there is something to test the most joystick-ally challenged as well as those with too much spare time on their hands.

You can also go one-on-one with Michael Jordan but the thrill of that wears off after five seconds in one of the more disappointing aspects of the game. But there is still a vast amount more to make it worth a few addictive hours in front of the screen.

If you own NBA Live 2000, there's no particular incentive to upgrade unless you happen to like last year's rookie class. However if you want computerised hoops, then this is still the Vince Carter of the range.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Greatest Ever !!!, 13 Sep 2001
By A Customer
NBA live has great graphics and it is easy to play once you get used to it. The best thing is that you can play with all the legends as soon as you start playing. You can do so many things with this game like 1-on-1, 3 point shootout, practice, season and challenges. It is the best game I have ever played.
