First of all, I did the T-Mac/Howard for Francis/Mobley/Cato trade (Woo! Custom rosters online rocks!)

Ok lets start it off in the 4th quarter

1st/2nd/3rd/4th quarters

Spurs (FMT) 20 19 28

Rockets (Me) 12 13 21

Ok, I'm down 67-46 heading into the 4th quarter. I should just pack it up like the Lakers in the Finals, but I wont! T-Mac leads the charge with passing and shooting!

Lets skip most of the 4th, and head to the final 3 secs.

Im down 85-80, thinking its over but NO FMT gets cocky like JGar and says "If you make this 3, Ill just get a 5 sec violation but no way you make it!"

SWISH!

T-Mac hits the 3 with 1.7 secs and it snow 85-83!!

...FMT does the 5 sec violation AGAIN with a cocky Niner attitude

Magic pass the ball in, T-Mac in the post...fade away...its GOOD! OVERTIME!

Outscored FMT 39-18 in the 4th!

In OT though, things look dim. Duncan is killing us as usual (had 62 pts at the end of the game), but then for some reason his hook shots stopped going down! Im down by 3 with 1 min left, but because of a couple of fast breaks from missed hook shots, im now up by 3!

Ok, some things happen and now FMT has the ball with 14 secs left down by 2 in overtime. Duncan gets the ball in the post, hook shot...TIED! Are we looking at double OT? Wait! Theres 8 secs left on the clock! Just enough time for a miracle!

Eric Piatkowski, comes off a screen with a couple secs left wide open jump shot...ITS IN! ROCKETS WIN! Wait!

0.3 secs left...but not enough time for a Fisher miracle! Game over! Biggest comeback in ID2004 Online history!

Poor FMT

[Ramirez]

LMAO...ID might be a game I look into next year considering the other 2 basketball games leave alot to be desired...

According to FMT's E3 report, NBA Live 2005 > ID 2004

And ID 2004 rocks!

 

[shpankey]

Yeah, Live 05 is looking sick. EA looks like they really made it their project game this year and are putting all their love into it being great.

There will be no Inside Drive 05, the series has now moved onto Xbox 2 development, so it won't be out till that system is out.

ROCKETS GET USED TO IT!

[DMczaf]

But the NCAA 2005 era is just around the corner! 3 more weeks!

Which version are you guys getting?

 

[DMczaf]

We wont know til Operation Sports posts impressions from the new NCAA 2005 beta later this week.

 

[Matrix]

What DM said!

Please be fixed

 

[Fifty]

I hope so too. I was really disturbed by that at E3

 

[shpankey]

Yeah, that made me nervous as well. But IGN has made absolutely no mention of any problems between them so far. I find it hard to believe there will be. I am sure it was just not as far along code, or untweaked, or had a bug or whatever.

 

[Ramirez]

FMT or anyone else who played Live 2005 at E3...does it look like the pics that have been released?They look like FMV to me,and I can't find any regular game shots So has the game changed alot graphically?Always my biggest beef with Live...

 

[DMczaf]

Man, its hard as hell to find NBA Live 2005 pics or videos

Its almost as if the media wants people to think it wasnt at E3

Heh I didnt notice till right now that the new gamepro *I get it free biznitchs* reviewed NCAA for all 3 systems and the Xbox version was rated the highest cause of graphics.They made no mention of xbox slowdown and both the ps2 and xbox version got 5.0 in control and 5.0 in fun factor.

I WANT NOW!

 

[Fifty]

Come on. Gamepro? I want to believe!

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

i dont know whats up with the boycott of NBA Live 2005. i played it for 30 mins + and it was awesome on xbox. ps2 version was very choppy and ran waaaaaaay too fast. xbox version resembled Inside Drive, but it had superior graphics in every way and the post game was a little better (although ID has a pretty good post game)

 

[bishoptl]

DM cheats in basketball games with T-Mac...he tied my my Timberpups in ESPN 2K4 with a bullshit at the end of the 4th, then turned it on in OT. I was morally outraged.

Oh dear GOD! You just made my day.

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

You embarrass my Spurs even with TD having 60+ points? I think I'm going to cry. =p

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

duncan owned that game! also, nester was dominating the paint on D... to be truthful i dont even know how DM won. i dominated yao on both sides of the ball, got good peremiter play, went 4-4 with bowen at the FT line... i am left to ponder what happened until Live 2005 comes out and i can have my revenge

but in the meantime i will take DM down in NCAA/madden/espn/slugfest/etc


don't fear the reaper DM!
