Title: Fun arcade game, but very weak overall
Product review: If you want a simple arcade basketball game, you'll be happy with NBA Live 2003. However, serious gamers should avoid this game like the plague. The serious negatives include:1.There is no way to play D. Occasionaly you can take a charge, but blocking a drive to the hoop is way too hard, stopping a drive is near impossible.2. Fast Breaks are available on every play. Again this is totally unrealistic3. Your players never get tired. No need to sub.4. In Franchise mode, even if you win, your players always want out. I've played multiple sims with a variety of teams and keeping your stars (or attracting new ones) is very difficult.Overall, this game is so unrealistic I'd avoid even renting the thing. If you want just a fast-break, coast to coast, arcade game though, you'll be satisfied.
