I Remember browsing through rosters looking at how good players were. Trying to see who i can trade for in my franchise. Creating a player to try to dethrone mike. Looking at dunk ratings and what colleges players went too. How many years said player had been in the league. Who were the top 5 pgs/sg/ect in the league since you have to look it up yourself back then. Nothing but nostalgia music playing that i didnt know was seeping into my brain.

Nowadays, I guess yall would be browsing the markert place on mut/myteam/ whatever its called looking to improve your team but instead of nostalgia producing music u have sh*tty songs from kuttem reese or crazy story by king von that has nothing to do with basketball.....those were just the days i guess....but hey u have online play so.....u ill admit u won....or should i say we? cause ha im still putting boots to a*ses gaming

Came into say just blaze gave EA the vibes

just had a flash back to the creator menu.

I like when 2k had that we’re playing basketball song

Wowww..took it back

Jordan was in this?

Damn this brought me back.

NBA Streets vol 2 and live 2004 had some great music. Man I couldn’t get enough.

Hellmatic said Jordan was in this?

Don’t remember but I doubt it. Around that time jordan always had a generic white bald 6’’6 player in his place on the bulls with the name player or shooting guard under his feet when you clicked on him in game lol. He was a 99 overall though and always the best player in the game. I think jordan owned his own license so he was always missing in games from the 90s or a created player with a random name and looked nothing like him

lil thou wow said Came into say just blaze gave EA the vibes

I remember this soundtrack well, especially that first song OP posted.

Just Blaze did the soundtrack for Live '98?

Yea just looked it up and he wasn't in it. He wasn't in most games, I have the n64 nba live 2000 I think. The one with Tim Duncan on the cover and he's only there as a one on one player. I wonder what prompted the change to him letting them include him in nba street and 2k11-16. Guess he said fu*k it, yall can't afford me but yall can put me in there

Hellmatic said Jordan was in this?

I think he may have been. He even made an appearance in Live 2000 as well and he wasn't playing at that time too.

I'ma check though.

edit: Ok I see you broke it down in a post above, props.

In a way this was another way of jordan saying "fu*k them kids" and being arrogant/greedy. Dude was rich as hell and kids looked up to him, but he wouldn't budge on them video game appearances

It's his likeness but still. The money he could make off appearing in them games and taxing the companies was pennies in comparison to what he was making elsewhere

Mike wasn't in NBA Live 98


He joined the player's union in Live 2002 when he came back from his second retirement

He had an exclusive game

Hellmatic said Jordan was in this?

Player 99/Player 23 is all I remember from his appearances... May have been one more but I can't remember.. but nah never Jordan until Live 02 if I recall

this was probably the only thing you would hear out my tv back in 99-2000

fu*king loved Tony Hawk up until the Underground games, after that it's straight up trash. American Wasteland was the start of the end, I can't front tho Project 8 was fun on the OG Xbox.

You could unlock him and use him on the Bulls roster, and I think like created team rosters, after you beat him 1on1. Had to do it on the hardest difficulty.



I had to cheese him with Tim Duncan, and post his a*s up; cause that n*gga would not miss middies for sh*t.

NBA Street tho

sh*t grinning smiling POS Isiah Thomas tried to sabotage Jordan financially.

Jordan's Licensing Move Knocked By Isiah Thomas and Magic Johnson

Michael Jordan's decision to bar the NBA from using his likeness to do individual deals, that takes away from the group effect," said Thomas, admittedly not one of Jordan's friends. "It's almost like, 'Hey, I'm going to look out for myself and everybody else fishes for themselves. But traditionally, what has made this league so on any of its apparel has drawn strong is that guys like Oscar fire from friends and foes alike. Robertson and Tommy Heinsohn were willing to sacrifice so we can all make the t of money we do. if we're not willing to do the same for the next generation, then we're not doing our job."

Jordan agreed to a multimillion dollar deal with Nike that gives the athletic shoe giant exclusive right to use his likeness on ap- parel, restricting the NBA to using his name and number. Jordan was reportedly dissatisfied with his take on the reported $45-$50 million the league rakes in from apparel sales.

Johnson said Jordan's decision "is about a lot of money, but it's also about power. That's the biggest thing. The union does not have the power anymore. It used to. to be Michael, Magic, Larry (Bird), Isiah. We were together, and we accomplished things. Now you know other guys are going to follow Michael, and I think it's go "When individual players start to break up the union."

But Isiah Thomas, president of the NBA Players' a*sociation, criticized the move, and was joined by friend Earvin "Magic" Johnson.

Isiah Thomas wanted Jordan to sacrifice tens of millions for the greater good of bums in the NBA and Jordan told him fu*k you!

Mike was on the cover of live 98??

Live was the greatest basketball game ubtil 2k came & SNATCHED the crown.

For a few years in the early 2000s they were f*ghting for the title then 2k shut em down after 2003
