Which of these games would be best to get. I read about the franchise mode in NBA Live 2002 which seems cool, but their games are always a bit choppy. So, I was wondering a couple things:

1. Has the NBA 2k series ever had a franchise mode like where you control a team through a bunch of seasons, having to trade, resign and draft, or is it supposed to be in 2k2?

2. Same thing but for Inside Drive?
3. Anyone have release dates, or around the time they should be released for Xbox?

4. What game do you think will be best?

Well, I decided that I was bored and I looked for release dates and a bunch of different places. Here is what I got.

NBA Live 2002: 11/19/01, 12/03/01, 11/20/01, 12/04/01, 12/07/01
NBA 2K2: 2/12/02, 1/15/02
NBA Inside Drive 2002: 12/27/01, 12/27/01

So it looks like NBA Live should be out sometime between Xbox Launch and a month from Launch. NBA 2K2 is likely out early next year. Inside Drive looks to be for sure on the 27th, but we'll see.

So, I think I'm gonna get NBA Live, because it comes out before the other 2, and the Franchise mode in it sounds intriguing.

IN' Sane!

Im a huge B-Ball fan. I know what has the best gameplay. And my pick is NBA2k2. SEGA SPORTS and Visual Concept makes the best sports games.

Yes, the NBA 2K series has a franchise mode begining with the 2K1 game, and 2K2 will have it also. It is good, but one complaint often held against it is that you can not use created players or created teams.

I don't know what game I am going to get because NBA 2k2 is the only one that I have played.

Hmm, it does have Franchise mode? Them I'm tossed. On one hand, Live comes out two months before 2k2. On the other hand, 2k2 is said to be better overall. But, 2k2 comes out halfway through the season. Maybe I'll get live this year, then go to the 2k series starting with 2k3....
