Product Description

Manufacturer Description

Graphically NBA Courtside is as smooth as a Karl Malone fadeaway jump shot and crisp as a Gary Payton pass. Running in the Nintendo 64's medium resolution mode (512x240 pixels) the detailed motion-captured characters look and behave extremely realistically. Attention to detail can be found in the properly placed arm bands and knee braces. Players even sport high or low socks depending on what their real-life counterparts wear.

This review is from: Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside (Game Cartridge)

I love this game! Since I never played NBA Live, you can read my review and weigh it with a grain of salt. You can perform cross overs, post ups, and set picks. Missed MJ? With the Create a player option, you can bring him back to life. There are gripes to this game. One, unlike Griffey, trading is a snap so you can easily create a dream team. Second, the computer can block your shots easily. Since when John Stockton has 4 blocks in a game? Third, the game is a little unrealistic. Once you bump into a defender, you stop your momentum. Also, Reggie Miller averaging only 11 points/ game, but Dennis Rodman scoring baskets? Come on.

This review is from: Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside (Game Cartridge)

This is one of the best sports games on N64. I'll just describe this game on its aspects. The Graphics looked somewhat grainly and the characters faces don't really correspond to the ones in reality. Doesn't have much sound, but good enough. The Presentation is about average due to the ballplayers odd looking appearance. Overall, the game itself makes the save. The game is so good that you will forget about it's graphics and sound. The cool part is that you can custom create Michael Jordan and he truly the air up there.

3.0 out of 5 stars Polished but unrealistic, December 20, 1999

This review is from: Kobe Bryant in NBA Courtside (Game Cartridge)

From the moment the options screen comes on at the beginning, it is clear that this is a carefully and professionally constructed game. Unfortunately, the gameplay does not quite live up to the presentation. For one, AI is not so much intelligence as sheer bloody-mindedness as your players are continually being forced into taking unrealistic shots, the moves are monotonous and ineffective and the ball physics (how it bounces about on the rim) defy any logic. Rebounds, especially on the offensive end, are absolutely impossible to get.

However, it must be said that the graphics are excellent even though the animation is a little suspect, and if players shot that laboriously in real life everyone would get ten blocks a game ! Commentary is very good.

So all in all, a very well packaged and presented game, but not one for someone who knows anything about the game of basketball; more for the casual gamer. If you're looking for a basketball game, try NBA LIVE...
