    uhhhh..yes it would. Go play and see. Drive to the hole, get fouled, miss the shot, see what your shooting percentage is. I know this for a fact. I owned the game, was playing as the Celtics, and had Paul Pierce driving every play to the hole. I would either score or get fouled (I hadn't missed a shot without getting fouled) My percentage should have still been 100%. But it wasn't. It was counting shots that were missed while getting fouled in the act of shooting. That, obviously, is incorrect, and helped to keep the shooting percentage down. Go check it out. Please...

    If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

      Well, I guess it was just my copy? I could have sworn that happened to me. Maybe I was seeing things? Who knows. I often play drunk, maybe that was it...I don't know. Could've sworn that happened to me though...

                  I never said that my copy didn't have any bugs. When did I say that? The only thing I said was that that didn't happen to me. And why would I make up my scores in inside drive?

                        I've never noticed that happen to me either and I've been in situations where I would have noticed.

                        Back on the original topic, I've watched Live go downhill since 2000. In 2001 the game was a let down and on top of this they didn't support the NT kernel at all because the didn't believe people running it played video games (Live 2000 was compatible and XP wasn't that far off). In 2002 they decided not to put out a game for the PC at all and for 2003 I was grossly disappointed with the game. Sure it was a quick-paced game with a lot of scoring and monster blocks, but that was the last thing I was looking for in the game. In all honesty though from what I've read with the 2004 version it sounds like EA is at least trying to take the game back to its sim roots. I still hate the stupid speed icons and such (which it looks like Sega is implementing ), but at least their going in the right direction...
