NBA 2K3 offers the same features in other games for both modes such as fantasy drafts, playbook managing, statistics, training camp, team rotations, and rookie and free agent signings. Re: NBA 2k3 Xbox Yeah, saw those, tried looking for Steve's comparison thread, but the images aren't showing up any more, where he compared the faces of Inside Drive, 2k3, and Live 03. That's the images that I'd love to see. Like NFL 2K3, NBA 2K3 is presented in the patented ESPN style. The game has all the sights and sounds of the NBA: the pomp and circumstance of pregame introductions, accurate arena recreations, realistic player animations and sizes, and fluid dribbling and shooting (including crossover moves and the ability to change shot direction in midair). NBA 2k3 is easily the most 'realistic'? Basketball simulation game on the market. The player movements are all nice, the look and feel of the players is accurate, and it simulates game play very well. More to the point, it isn't as much of an arcade game like some of its peers. This is good for the realism (bad for the speed of play).

NBA 2K3 powers forward with the kind of improvement that only results from an off-season dedicated to perfection. Imagine jump shots so real players actually adjust their movement in mid-air based on distance from the hoop and defensive pressure; a passing touch that gives you the control to skirt a defender or start a fast break; and dribble moves that let you jab left, rock right, crossover, spin and much more. It's all happening in NBA 2K3. No other game delivers the physical element of basketball like this. Accurate impact from collisions, especially hard fouls and authoritative dunks; shot blocking with emphasis on precise hand-to-ball contact; and the ability to lunge for the loose ball, even if it means ending up on some celebrity?s lap. With commentators that analyze strategy, cutscenes portraying lifelike player interaction, uniforms that move like real fabric, and a brand new ESPN broadcast system that wraps it all together, NBA 2K3 provides the complete NBA experience.

NBA 2K3 has a native 16:9 display option, but it requires enabling it in its internal options and setting Dolphin's Aspect Ratio graphics setting to 'Auto'. Using the widescreen hack with this title is not recommended.

Black Screen
NBA 2K3 will continuously show a black screen at startup unless XFB Real is set. It appears XFB can be reverted to Virtual once the title has started. Fixed with Hybrid XFB in 5.0-5874.
