DESCRIPTION

NBA Live 96 is the second installment of EA SPORTS' NBA Live series of basketball games. NBA Live 96 features more animations and more stats than its predecessor. It also features a new Custom Design Mode which allows gamers to create their own basketball players with different hair, skin, build, height, and skills.

NBA Live 96 features updated rosters from the 1995-96 NBA season and includes the two expansion teams: the Vancouver Grizzlies and the Toronto Raptors. Comprehensive scores and stats are kept during season play and game stats are kept during exhibition play. The computer also names the "Player of the Game" in each game, based on total point and defense production.

NBA Live 96 also includes new player moves like the rebound tip slam, new signature dunks, new signature blocks, and crossover and spinning dribbles. A 3D rotating court allows the player to watch the game from any conceivable angle.

NBA Live 96 allows players to play exhibition games and full seasons, but also allows gamers to go right to the playoffs with their favorite team. Trades are easy and unrestricted, allowing the player to create superstar teams. ~ Anthony Baize, All Game Guide
