What's the most Challenging Game? (Steve?)

[hippo81]

this question is mainly directed to Steve since he's played all 3 games...

which game is the most challenging?

because last year, i could beat teams by a lot using the bulls in NBA 2k2 (xbox) on the allstar setting, so i was wondering if Inside Drive 03 or 2k3 were more challenging

i would hate for either game to get too repetitive quickly

also, what are your overall opinions about ID and 2k3 - which game is more fun, are the animations roughly equal in number, do the offenses and defenses play realistically, any glaring flaws, the level of the AI, etc.

thanks for all the work you put into this site and i hope you have the time to answer these questions

Hippo, I beat the lakers (rated 92) with the bulls (rated like 62 as a team) last year on all star by one point. I shot 1-27 on the Ft line. I hate the analog controller for Ft's.

From that day forward I never played nba2k2 again.

The Bulls beat the Lakers twice last season. Did the Bulls stop playing games after that?

i am a Bulls fan so i play them in my franchises...but it got to the point where i was beating everyone by 20 points on the allstar level. every once in a while i'd have a close game, but it got repetitive once u picked up on the computer's tendencies. i was hoping that since the Bulls players had such low ratings in the game, id lose more games like the real team did last year (who did beat the lakers twice )

that was one of the reasons i didnt play the game that much. Madden 2003 on the other hand (and previous maddens too) always gives me a challenge no matter who i play with (49ers)

so all i'm asking is if either ID03 or 2k3 poses more of a challenge this year (like i hope 2k3 doesnt have the same inside game as last year)

and as of right now, i'm leaning towards getting ID03 because from what i played of the 02 version, it had a more nba-like/more fun feel
