NLSC Your source for basketball video games.
In last week’s NLSC Podcast, Dee4Three and I discussed revisiting NBA Showdown 94, which was EA Sports’ precursor to NBA Live 95. As always, Dee made sure to record our gameplay, and put together another great highlight reel for our YouTube channel!
I’m not as familiar with NBA Showdown 94 and other titles in the NBA Playoffs series (though I do own some of them), since as I mentioned on the podcast, NBA Live 95 was my entry into EA’s basketball games. I do want to spend more time with them though, as it was a lot of fun going head-to-head with Dee in NBA Showdown. As you can see, Clyde Drexler was unstoppable in the paint, while I probably should’ve brought Steve Kerr off the bench earlier! The classics remain a blast to dust off and play today, as I’m sure these highlights will demonstrate.
Another reminder that Dee has been spearheading an initiative to create more video content for the NLSC, from gameplay highlights to the weekly Top 10 Plays. There’s a lot more we’re looking to do with the NLSC YouTube channel including tutorials and more Parsec tournaments, so check it out and please subscribe! We’re also open to suggestions for classic basketball video games to revisit since we both have extensive collections, so please let us know what you’d like to see us play, and hear us discuss on future podcast episodes.
