When Live 2003 first came out I bashed it was completely unplayable and total garbage. I had it installed on a WinME.
I now installed WinXP and it works great. I have a 2.53gig RAdeon 9700 Pro video card so the graphics are completely unbelievable. Easily the best I have ever seen in a basketball game. And now that my frame rates are up, the game has now become playable. I can shoot free throws finally and have a better feel for shooting jumpers. I have a .445 3 point percentage.
And now that I have gotten a feel for the game the excessive blocks are no longer a problem. I find them no worse than any other edition of LIVE. In fact I find them a little harder because this year with goaltending shut off you can not sit under the basket and block shots as they come close to the rim. I get the odd one but most the time I cant' jump up high enough to block the shots.
But to keep this message in the gripe section I do have one gripe. PRobably more with EA Sports than with LIVE 2003
When I first installed the game in WinME I signed up for online play. Now that I had to reinstall the game when I installed WinXP on my computer I can no longer play online because the serial number I have has already been used when I signed up earlier.
My 60free days are now up or very close to being up and I haven't even gotten to play online.
I've written to EASports tech support twice and have gotten no help at all.
Other than that this is easily the greatest basketball game of all time, if not one of the greatest games of all time.
Peace,
