NBA Live is a sports simulator game for Windows PC.

NBA Live offers action and sports adventure from a third-person perspective. Designed by Electronic Arts UK, NBA live is all about the world of basketball. Players of NBA Live can create their own teams populated with their pick of players and then compete against real-life world ranked teams using their most updated statistics and scorecards.

NBA Live and its more recent incarnations - for instance, NBA Live 2008; NBA Live 2014 - offers one of the most authentic NBA world basketball simulator games. Players can choose from special skills and moves which come with individual players (and mirroring their real-world traits and moves), with viewpoints of the stands and playing field. Combinations of moves and plays can be created to fake-out the opponent. Use your star players to sink the basketball just in time.

Feature moves include dominate in the paint, pump fake, drop-step, hook, spin, and more. Players can experience what it is like to be an NBA Live coach by using player profiles and up-to-date statistics, which help guide the player to find the virtual team's best shooting zones, weaknesses, and how to defend.

Additional action can be had from FIBA World Championship. International and domestic teams are available to create a virtual FIBA tournament. Countries include France, Spain, USA, England and more. The Dynasty mode simulator allows players to practice moves with the team to see what will fit before returning to the real game.
