NBA Live 2004 was a pretty good game for its time. NBA Live 2003 isn't bad if you forego all desire for realistic scores, gameplay and blocking physics. ;)

NBA live 2003 was so sweet. I used to put up 70 points between my trio of T-Mac - Patrick chEwing-Pat Garrity on the Magic lol.

March Madness 2003 just improves on the Arcade fun of 2003 with the inclusion of freestyle air, diving, and a full, yes, full 3D crowd that does the fucking wave. Nevermind that you can break the damn backboard and the automatic replays are only 2nd to 2k10 IMHO in terms of angles and Depth of Field effects.

Yea, MM03 had a full 3D crowd, DoF, dynamic shadows, and a consistent physics engine....I still claim it to be EA's most fun non-street basketball game.

I do believe 2004 uses the same soundfx as 2003

although, a quick file swap from 2005 (most realistic sounds IMO) or 06+ gets rid of the sonic boom

Bought a bunch of Vitamin Water. Didn't think I'd like those, but they're much superior to the other "enhanced" water products out there. Always with real cane sugar, no unnecessary colorants and preservatives. Good stuff. (Y)

Agreed, they're good and I like them more than overpriced gatorade or powerade sports drinks.

Of course, the booming cannon sound effect as Darrell Armstrong blocks Shaq's dunk all the way back to the opposite baseline and out of bounds, punctuated by Rick Fox stealing Phil Jackson's seat and Slava Medvedenko signing an autograph on the way to the locker room.

I'm big on Rockband and Harmonix rather than the GH3+ guitar heros. I only got Metallica for the double bass charts for drums. And cause I love One, Orion, and Fuel.

Finally bought a home theater system with 5.1 surround system. Not the best brand ever (RCA) but it seems to get the job done and I can't wait to watch blu-rays using it.

Also some blinds for my living room window, since my cat annihilated the old ones.

BioShock 2 and Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing this past Sunday.

I gotta say Sonic's it's actually a great game... obviously, don't spect a Mario Kart superb revolutionary game, but it's just not a cheap Mario Kart copy. Can't stop playing it, specially the Samba de Amigo tracks and its music tracks
