      WEll i know I will take kick *** gameplay over stadium sounds anyday..Yeah 2k3 looks pretier with the flashy espn crap but bottom line it comes down to playing ball and ID2003 has 2k3 hands down IMO...

      You guys rather watch paint dry then play some REAL ball then ....I don't know what to telll you..


      All the slider settings in teh world does not help 2k3 play like a sim any better..Even on fast it plays to slow and all that sloppy passing is just horrible.All that ball bobble is just stupid..I Have been playing 2k series since the dc and IMO they just messed it all up this time around..there are no elevation in the Jumpshots dunks or layups and they all still run around with mops up their butts...

      Now i am curious to what they will put out next year,I will not make the mistake and run out and buy next time..I will rent it first..


      This year was the first year i played id series and it impressed me..Yeah its not blow out your ears atmosphere or tittie pretty menu's..It'scut to the chase basketball..You get to the offseason
      do your business and get back to the court and thats the strong point of ID2003 and it sports it well[BASKETBALL)

      Now I don't post much but I noticed all the people that have ID2003 get placed in a category because they love the underated game..BUt bottom line you dont know what you are missing untill you give it a chance...

      Gameplay comes first for me so thats why ID2003 gets the most PT in my house..
      It aint my fault!!

        Re: Whats Better??? NBA2K3 or NBA ID2003

        If you're into gameplay over atmosphere, ID 2003 is the best NBA game this year. Here's why:

        -- Great pacing and flow. This isn't a fast-break fest like NBA Live 2003 or a sluggish-paced game like NBA 2K3, in which fast breaks are somewhat rare.

        -- Best off-the-ball movement of any basketball game I've ever played, period. It's awesome to see players move off baseline screens and drift out to the three-point line for an open shot. Plus there's a ton of back- and double-screening going on. It just feels like an NBA game.

        -- Fun commentary. I might be alone on this, but I really like the combo of Kevin Calabro, Marques Johnson and Kenny Smith.

        -- Excellent offensive balance. Unlike NBA 2K3, ID 2003 has a mid-range game. There's a fine balance of threes, mid-range shots and points in the paint. NBA 2K3 still relies way too much on threes and power moves in the paint, with little in between.

        -- Great feel. This is hard to explain, but it just feels like I earn what I get and deserve my shortcomings in ID 2003. There's no cheap comeback AI, no excessive field-goal percentages for the CPU, no invisible force fields on defense, etc. This game just feels right and tight.

        I'm not an NBA fan at all, but I'm playing the hell out of ID 2003. I play it nearly every day -- great fun.

        Take care,

          You're not alone, I too like the commentary. It's funny as hell sometimes!

            I also love when u go for dunk,and sometimes u miss it(Ben wallace why!!!!) and kenny Smith has always have to have a comment for that dunk,sometimes its funny that ull laugh ur *** off or sometimes its really mean,and i do mean MEAN,that you'll get pissed off lol,and feel like knocking out Kenny smith ...I do love the trio of Kenny Calabro,Kenny Smith,and the other guy.....i forgot his name ,and at the end of the game they tell u who's MVp who scored the most,bes FG percentage,and stuff like that ya know the stats of the game and if it was crappy game or really really well played game by both teams...also when its a holiday EX:new year's the commentators will say happy new yrs to everybody at the beginning of the game,I just Love this game so much it gets u HOOKED and u can't stop playing.I got no problem with the atmosphere it seems FINE for me cuz im probably not so picky over that although i do hope they fix it for the next version.Probably the only i hate about the game is that at the end all the players are standing next to their bench,and they don't go to their lockers just stand there in LIVE they show u how they go their locker and stuff with the whole team that is also one more thing i hope they fix on the next version.I've also got to agree with u there taqiyya for saying that us ppl that love the underated game so much get put in to a category in this forum,and yes u are right this xbox exclusive game is only available for this system so to all of u xbox owners who are starting tired of 2k3 like 3rdanswer i say buy ID u'll never get bored

            Peace out

              I know this, as long as some guys have been playing 2k3, the game shold be to easy to them and if not that is why you probably don't care too much for ID.

              To me 2k3 simply became too easy, I can live with the flaws a game brings, but I do not want a game that I can beat easily.

              Plus the gameplay is alot better. On a scale of 1-10 Iwould give 2k3 gameplay a 7.5 and ID a 9.1

              I bet most of you can take the Warriors and make them champions in 1 season, if your good not great, but just good.

              In ID you better have a plan to get some top NBA talent and then you have to develope all rookies. It will take 2-5 years to take a bad team and make them a champion at the least.

              Not only that, but all the teams don't play right either. Nets, Kings and several others. They run 85 percent of the game, but not in 2k3.

              I think you guys that have a xbox should look closer at ID.

              What world do you live in?

                Uh..the commentary is awful.

                When Kenny Smith does come in to comment, it sounds like he just showed up to the game, said what he needed to say, and then left back to wherever he was.

                They say some funny things, but the interaction between each other is terrible.

                Like I said, ID 2002 was cool, I had it, enjoyed it, but everything 2003 added, NBA 2K3 has and does better.

                For those of you out there enjoying it, keep enjoying it, I know we all have our preferences and some people love some games and some people hate those same games.

                As for me though...

                I may try out ID 2003 again one day, if I'm tired, lonely, and needing a friend.

                    Good for you man, you want a prize? I hadn't played the 2K series since the first NBA 2K on DC, so I'm not used to hearing the same commentary over and over. ID is ok, laid back "TNT" almost like feel or whatever, but the way its done is horrible, it doesn't sound natural at times, and sometimes feels like they're not really all at the game. I didn't say 2K3's commentary was excellent either, I really don't pay attention, so don't tell me not to go there, as if you're going to do something about it.
