The Bulls were the dominant NBA team of the '90s and arguably the best basketball team ever. No other team even came close, and any time a contender like the Jazz reared its pretentious head to challenge them, the Bulls slapped them down in the championship when it counted. Similarly, EA Sports' NBA Live was the dominant basketball game of the '90s. A few companies like Microsoft and Fox have tried to compete, but NBA Live remains the premier basketball game on the PC.

You can match Iverson up against Jordan or relive the classic Russel-Chamberlain battles of yesteryear. Single games are still fun whether you play them in exhibition or season mode. The emphasis is on action, and as always, it's better to play offense than try to win on defense. However, it seems that every year, NBA Live gets better in terms of lettin
