NBA Live 2001

"Maybe EA Sports need to think more about some of the fundamental aspects of basketball and AI coding, which they sure haven't done ever since the series was introduced in '95, rather than just trying to impress us with the newest...and flashiest graphics, and rap tunes ever..."

"For newbies out there looking for new basketball experience, NBA Live 2001 is an attractive game that effectively mirrors big league basketball... a quality title that remains true to the game of basketball."

"...there is plenty to love about this game, delays or not... there's no question that this is a leaps-and-bounds improvement..."

"The 2001 version is current with rosters and audio/visual technology and focuses primarily on the finer points of the game as opposed to the fast-paced runabout that we have seen before."

"Basketball fans really don’t have much of a choice when it comes to buying PC games of their favorite sport... While there might not be enough new features for the year 2001 to warrant an upgrade from 2000, new gamers looking for the best, (and only), PC NBA simulation don’t have to look any further than NBA Live 2001."
