As I've mentioned on many occasions, NBA Live 95 is a title that's often remembered fondly by long-time basketball gamers. Beyond its significance as the first game in the NBA Live series, it's also generally considered to be a classic for the way it advanced the genre. Even after 25 years, it holds up remarkably well considering how far basketball video games have come. I always feel nostalgic when I dust off NBA Live 95, but I also find that I'm impressed by the quality and how much fun it can still be, given its age. Let's look back 25 years to where it all began.
It's an all-new retrospective of NBA Live 95! There were a number of things I didn't cover in my original retrospective for the 20th Anniversary, so I wanted to make sure I discussed them this time around. What I originally thought was going to be a slight update turned out to be pretty much a brand new article, but no complaints here. NBA Live 95 is well worth remembering and reminiscing about!
