EA's NBA Live series returns to the PlayStation, as does announcer Marv Albert, with NBA Live 2003.

The 2003 version of the NBA simulator has improved graphics in relation to the previous installments and features like detailed faces and a player design engine. It also has rosters in accordance to the 2002-2003 Season.

The game controls have been tweaked in an effort to facilitate seamless dribbling move, dunks, and shot blocking. High-pressure shots are made more difficult for those with vibration support, because their controller will start shaking before every big shot. Game modes include exhibitions, seasons, and franchises.

Features:
Featuring music from such artists as Fabulous, Flipmode Squad, Just Blaze, and Snoop
String moves together including crossovers, triple threats, and strip steals by using the right thumbstick
Control the flow of the game by calling plays similar to the pick-n-roll isolation on the fly
