100With just about every conceivable option for a basketball game available, Live 2001 is even better than last year's excellent effort.
-
100If you want a game that's more tailored to individual play rather than team cooperation, then NBA Live is a great choice.
-
90Rarely has there even been a time in the history of sports game development that the implementation of new (mo-cap) moves actually achieved the result of positively impacting the gameplay of a title -- as much as it has here with NBA Live 2001.
-
The game is just plain fun and I can honestly say that I would rather play Live 2001 than almost half of the PS2's line-up of launch games.
-
89NBA Live 2001 is not only the PlayStation's best basketball game, but it's also the best playing b-ball sim on any system.
-
86The gameplay hasn't evolved too terribly much but it has improved.
-
80The game delivers all the options and play modes you could possibly ask for, a rock-solid control scheme, and of course, EA Sports' unmatched presentation value and signature high-flying action.
-
80Despite its graphical limitations, statistical miscues and outdated rosters, this is still one of the best basketball games for the Playstation.
-
75Though while showing some nuances, the game is still old news for the ones who've gone onto the next generation systems.
-
While NBA Live 2001 is very much like the 2000 version, it offers some new extras like the NBA Challenge and new in-the paint moves that will appeal to die-hard ballers.
