[c0nr4d]

Does anyone know where i can d/l some of the older versions? I've only been a Live player since 2000, so i'd like to play aroud with the older stuff...

David, just to tell you your links from nbalive95 page dont work. when i clikc on "page 3-live 96" i end up on the same page.
so as of now, andrew has done a much better job because at least i can read about 96..

Actually I wrote the live 96 article

[ilya]

haha alright either way, nlcs is still doing a better job :-d

[nbasky]

great!
i'm expecting your work.

i started play nba live since 95, and have not missed any one of the series

[Andrew]

Glad you like them guys. The rest are done but we're posting them a couple of days apart. NBA Live 97 should be up tomorrow.

[cyanide]

Ahh, the memories... Nice work! Wish the screenshots could be bigger though.

[Andrew]

A look back at NBA Live 97 is now online. My apologies for the quality of the screenshots, I should be able to provide better screens as the series progresses.

Nice job. I think it is cool to look back at earlier titles. I been playing NBA Live since i got NBA Live 99.

[cyanide]

Andrew, I think you've been spending too much time with the 10th anniversary edition because you said, "Live 95 is superior to every game that followed it" at a previous thread that you locked

[Andrew]

I'll admit, it has some competition, but at the end of the day NBA Live 95's graphics and gameplay reign supreme.

indeed......oh, how i dream about the PA guy saying 'THREE!'...ah, yes.....

i really like this feature (the looks back)

[cyanide]

So it wasn't a typo Yeah, Live 95 was soo awesome, a lot of memories with Penny Hardaway and Reggie Miller... but imo, I still think Live 2000 toppled it!

[Filip]

And don't forgett that NBA live 95 is the only game of the series where the mouse actually worked solid to play with (I used it whenever I played against someone).

[LegoTP]

I like this idea, I always read it and it's great .
Screens are a bit small but that's not a big problem.

[Andrew]

I'm afraid these got pushed aside for a while, but we're going to finish them off before moving on to the next big feature. Here's Matthew's look back at NBA Live 99. I've made the screens a little bigger this time.

[Andrew]

Lutz opined that EA's decision not to give NBA Live 2000 this label was a promising sign as he prepared to sample the game for the first time, a time when "millennium" was everyone's favourite buzzword. So how does the "millennium edition" of NBA Live fare these days? Find out in our latest retrospective review.

[Matt]

somebody's gotta do Live 98....that game was the most enjoyable of all lives!

NBA Live 98 review

[MaD_hAND1e]

I think that was the last NBA live where you could hold turbo and run around knocking people over

[Wormy10]

Wasnt it the last game to have the hand check button also?

[MaD_hAND1e]

Lol... after reading this thread... I went and installed 98 and indeed I went around knocking people over using the hand check button. But it got boring very quickly and I uninstalled it again.... but this game was also the only one to utilise the cheerleading talent of the NBA.

[Andrew]

I'm pretty sure hand-checking was there until NBA Live 2002...but I guess we'll find out soon enough (yes, yes, cheap plug I know ).
