20th Anniversary of NBA Live: NBA Live 2003 Retrospective

Continuing our 20th Anniversary of NBA Live content, it's a retrospective of NBA Live 2003!

NBA Live 2003 is neither one of my all-time favourites, nor one of the best games in the NBA Live series. It is, however, a very significant game in the series for a few reasons; some good, some bad.

At the same time, it made several missteps, providing a clear lesson in what not to do with a five-on-five, sim-oriented basketball title that most gamers wanted to be as realistic as possible. Having said all that, let’s take a look back at NBA Live 2003.
