    Maximonline Kills Live 2003

    Why is it that all the established gaming sites give Live 2003 no less than an 8/10 yet Maximonline (the mens magazine website) gives Live a 2.5 /5 ??

    Taken from their small review:

    Latrell Sprewell broke his hand on a yacht, the second coming of Shawn Bradley was chosen number one, and old man Jordan might come off the bench. Yep, the NBA is in a sad state of affairs these days, and unfortunately, so is EA’s hoop nightmare. Forget about playing defense in this slamfest. In less than two quarters of play, we had every Washington Wizard scoring in double digits, and worse yet, Jordan even had a good shooting percentage. It’s hard to diss a game that looks so realistic (Iverson’s still rocking ’rows), but there’s just something wrong when the only way to stop anyone from driving to the bucket is by taking away their keys to the stadium.

    Anyone who trusts Maximonline for their videogame reviews is insane, IMHO. What's with the dis against Jordan anyway? Jordan can be on fire from time to time, and he did have a 51-point game followed by a 45-point game last season. He shot a decent percentage, while not up to par with his career stats, it was still impressive given that he hadn't played for 3 years and he's 39 years old.

      LOL. They are one of the worst sources for a video game review. Don't listen to their opinions about gaming. I think they just played the game for 20 mins and wrote that thoughtless opinion of what the gameplay was like.

        Oh i dont trust their opinion of the game.....i dont trust anyones opinion of the game really. I actually watch my frens play it and spectate so to speak, so i know i like the game and will buy it regardless. Maxim is a great magazine but that review was garbage fo real.

            It's funny. but the nba2k3 gamers and the nba live gamers are more alike than we think.

            LIVE gets dissed by first impressions. Nba2k3 gets dissed by first impressions, but it seems that both have some type of learning curve and are better games when you become better at the game.

            They both seem like great games with either tweaking of gameplay settings or slider settings or just some flat out practice. It's good competition for these companies.

              From renting NBA Live over the weekend, Maxim's review is pretty accurate. Truth hurts doesn't it fellas. 2004 will be EA'S year in basketball. Hopefully, they'll get it right, but then again maybe they pull a Chris Sims!
