NBA Live 95

Seven years later, even with the advent of infinitely more sophisticated and technologicaly advanced gaming systems, I derive the same ammount of enjoyment--probably more--from this revolutionary b-ball sim! It had everything you could possibly want in a NBA game: NBA license, all 27 teams, over 300 players, set plays, excellent graphics, superb play control and, best of all, tracking of player stats--I love stats!

"NBA Live" 95 initiated a successful series (by far the best) of basketball sims that continue to this day--the latest incarnation being "NBA Live 2002"--and continually improve! However, I feel a special fondness for that original 16 bit gem that has given me countless hours of unparaleled fun thoughout the years. Even if you have the latest in video game systems--Playstation 2, Xbox, Nintendo Game Cube--I highly recommend buying "NBA Live 95" if you are a basketball enthusiast. As a matter of fact, I am going to play a season game with the Bulls on "NBA Live 95" as soon as I finish writing this review!

Note: While both the SNES and Sega Genesis versions are good, the Sega Genesis version is the best.

It is a good game for any sports game fan. it is a classic game and graphics aren't the worst. The gameplay is good too. If you are a sports gamer and want to add to your collection this is the game for you.It is still fun to play on the genesis even though ther is playstation 2 and dreamcast are out. So get this game because it is one of the all time greats, classic sports games.
